Description

New for 2024, the Fender Custom Shop introduces the 1963 Telecaster® Relic®. A wonderfully crafted reproduction of the Telecaster® from the golden era of Fender's past, this guitar is a perfect combination of this period's appointments.



The 2-piece select alder body is artfully aged in a Relic® lacquer Fiesta Red finish and is paired with a rift-sawn maple neck with '60s-style Oval "C" back-shape and a round-laminated rosewood fingerboard. With the throaty midrange and bite of a Custom Shop hand-wound Original Blackguard bridge pickup and the crystalline clarity of a Custom Shop hand-wound Twisted Tele® neck pickup, this guitar delivers classic Telecaster® tone with astonishing versatility.



Other premium features include a 9.5" radius, 21 narrow tall (6105) frets, Modern Tele® wiring with Greasebucket™ tone circuit, 3-way switch, 3-ply mint-green pickguard, '58-'63 Tele® bridge with threaded steel saddles, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, wing string tree, deluxe hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.
