Description

If you have been waiting for a special Telecaster to come along, look no further. Offered is this superb Custom Shop ’59 Custom Telecaster built in 2022, serial number R120935.

This guitar has Fender’s “Time Capsule” finish package, which is a Custom Shop treatment designed to make a new guitar look like an unplayed, perfectly preserved vintage instrument. It features glossy "No Buff" NOS flash coat lacquer on the body, combined with gently aged Closet Classic hardware. The color is 3 tone chocolate sunburst on the top and back with plum colored sides. It has a light weight, two-piece alder body with binding on the top and back. The guitar’s total weight is just 7.4 pounds. The maple neck is a ’59 large “C” shape with depth measurements of .85” at the first fret increasing to .99” at the twelfth fret. It has a nice dark AAA grade rosewood fingerboard with a 7.25” to 9.50” compound radius, medium Jescar 47095 frets, vintage style clay inlays and a 1.650” bone nut. The electronics include ’58 Tele single coil pickups with modern wiring. It has an eight-hole single ply pickguard and vintage style tuners.

This lovely instrument plays great and the chunky neck feels great. It sounds like a Telecaster should with lots of twang without being piercing. Please check out the brief sound sample provided.

This guitar has seen only light play and remains in near mint condition. Just a tiny, hard to see clear coat flaw near the control plate is all there is to report (see included photo). Otherwise, this guitar is in near mint condition and the frets are flawless. It comes in its original brown G&G case along with the certificate of authenticity, the build sheet and all the original accessories.

A new example of Custom Shop guitar like this one would have a street price of approximately $4,500. Get this near mint 2022 example for quite a bit less. Click ‘Buy Now’ and make this beauty yours today!
