For sale is my Fender Custom Shop 1953 Telecaster Journeyman Relic, finished in classic White Blonde with a maple fingerboard.
Designed by renowned Fender Custom Shop Master Builder Paul Waller, this guitar captures the look, feel and character of an early 1950s Telecaster.
The Journeyman Relic finish gives the instrument an authentic vintage appearance, with tasteful ageing and wear that recreates the character of a well-loved original ’53 Telecaster.
The guitar has all the unmistakable qualities associated with a Fender Custom Shop instrument, combining traditional Telecaster styling with exceptional craftsmanship.
The neck is quite unique - a 53 soft V. Jeff Beck would have loved it! The ageing on the neck is superb and if you play regularly, you will see the results. The sound and this aspect have endeared it to me in particular.
