Description
This pre-owned Fender Custom Shop '51 HS Telecaster Relic in Aged Nocaster Blonde is in very good condition, with scratches and wear beyond the factory aging - worth knowing before you buy, though nothing that affects playability. The ash body keeps the overall weight to 7 lbs 7.8 oz, which is on the lighter side for a solidbody Tele and helps with longer playing sessions. The 25.5" scale and 7.25"-9.5" compound radius fingerboard mean the low positions play with vintage-style feel while the upper register opens up for bending without the fretting out that a flat vintage radius can cause. The 10/56 V neck profile is a relatively shallow V - firm enough to feel substantial without being a deep C or a pronounced wedge. Pickups are a Seymour Duncan SH-55 Seth Lover at the neck and a Crushed Blackguard at the bridge: the SH-55 is a PAF-voiced humbucker with articulate, low-compression character, while the Crushed Blackguard is wound to replicate early-'50s Telecaster bridge tone - punchy and clear with controlled top-end. That combination gives you humbucker warmth in the neck position alongside a historically informed Tele bite at the bridge, making this a strong choice for players who want period-correct Telecaster character with added neck versatility. Comes in the Custom Shop hardshell case, and as a guitar over $3,000, it includes Righteous Guitars' complimentary PLEK service and limited lifetime warranty.
