Overview

A precise recreation of a classic Tele.

The Fender Limited Edition 1963 Telecaster Relic Electric Guitar is as good as owning the real thing. Given the relic treatment by Fender master builders, this one looks and feels like an old friend. It has a thinline alder body with a nitrocellulose finish and above-mentioned treatment. The maple neck has a comfortable 1957 Soft V profile and a maple fretboard with vintage-style frets.

The sound is true to the year thanks to a hand-wound Twisted Tele and Broadcaster pickups at the neck and bridge. This special model comes complete with COA and a nice hardshell case.
