A classic Fender Custom Shop nitrocellulose Relic finish rounds it all out, saving you more than a half-century’s worth of break-in time!’60s Oval “C” profile neck There’s a reason why the “C” profile neck has served as the standard Fender neck shape for decades — it’s simply a great middle-ground neck style that all types of players have come to love. That being said, the “C” has quite a few minor variations, and if you’re a player that likes a slightly chunkier neck, you’ll love the Fender Custom Shop ’63 Telecaster Relic’s Oval “C” profile. This profile offers all the comfort of a standard “C,” but with a greater heft to better fill out your hand. Plus, this vintage-style neck brandishes a variety of modern appointments: 21 narrow-tall frets in a modern 9.5-inch radius make everything from open chords to high-register bends a breeze.Well-worn nitrocellulose relic finish The Fender Custom Shop ’63 Telecaster Relic is more than simply a sonic tribute to the greatest Teles of the past. This guitar’s well-worn nitrocellulose relic finish gives you the instantly “broken in” feel that’s so common among the most venerable of vintage instruments. From the battle scars on the alder body to the thinned-away finish on the maple neck, Sweetwater’s vintage fanatics love how this guitar captures every aesthetic detail of a true golden-age classic.Hand-wound pickups ready to bring the Texas heat While just about every Fender fanatic at Sweetwater is enamored with the aesthetics of Fender’s golden-age creations, the low-output pickups of the past aren’t ideal for certain guitar styles. The Fender ’63 Telecaster Relic rectifies this issue by loading up this vintage-looking 6-string with a set of hand-wound Blackguard and Twisted Telecaster pickups — a seriously hot-rodded take on your traditional Tele sound. These pickups still sport all the classic Tele hallmarks — round lows, defined highs, and endless twang — but their overwound construction and Alnico V magnets kick out significantly more power and punch in the midrange register, complete with a touch of Stratocaster sparkle for an extensive sonic palette.Fender Custom Shop ’63 Telecaster Relic Features: Lightweight 2-piece select alder body provides a bold and resonant response Rift-sawn maple neck in a grip-filling ’60s Oval “C” profile Rosewood fingerboard planed into a modern 9.5-inch radius with 21 narrow-tall frets Custom Shop hand-wound original Blackguard and Twisted pickups put a chunky midrange spin on traditional Tele twang with a touch of Stratocaster sparkle Period-correct Tele Bridge with threaded steel saddles and slotted Fender vintage-style tuners Fender Custom Shop nitrocellulose Relic finish gives you a perfectly worn-in instrument right out of the box SpecificationDetail Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Type Solidbody Body Shape 1963 Telecaster Relic Body Material 2-piece Select Alder Color Aged Lake Placid Blue Body Finish Nitrocellulose Lacquer Neck Material Rift Sawn Maple Neck Shape '60s Oval C Neck Joint Bolt-on Radius 9.5" Fingerboard Material AAA Rosewood Fingerboard Inlay Dots Number of Frets 21, Narrow Tall (6105) Scale Length 25.5" Nut Width 1.650" Nut Material Bone Bridge/Tailpiece 3-Saddle Vintage-Style Strings-Through-Body Tele with Threaded Steel Barrel Saddles Tuners Vintage-style Neck Pickup Fender Custom Shop Hand-Wound Twisted Tele Single-coil Bridge Pickup Fender Custom Shop Hand-Wound Original Blackguard Tele Single-coil Controls 1 x volume, 1 x tone Switching 3-way blade pickup switch Strings Nickel Plated Steel, .010-.046 Case/Gig Bag Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
