Fender Custom Shop Limited-edition ’70s Telecaster Custom Heavy Relic, Aged Black

Serial: #CZ580187

Weight: 7.2lbs/3.3kgs

This Fender Custom Shop Telecaster captures the sunset of the 1960s and the rise of the 1970s. When humbuckers grew popular during the late ‘60s, Fender took notes. An ash body is the perfect complement to this Tele’s pickups, but especially the neck humbucker.

Ash offers a hearty midrange and resonant sustain — natural fits for ‘70s-style tones that give roots rock authenticity and solos soaring sparkle fit for arenas! A quarter-sawn maple neck and fingerboard polished off with a ’60s Oval “C” profile ensures every last drop of tone is within arm’s reach with premium feel and stability fit for the road.

Hardware highlights include a bone nut and compensated bridge saddles that are faithful to old-school Telecaster parts while improving intonation and reliability.
