2023 Fender Custom Shop 1960 ‘60 Telecaster - White Over Blonde Heavy Relic in near mint condition. This Tele has been professionally set up and plays fast and smooth up and down the neck. All original with no mods. Weight is 7lbs 2oz. Overall, the condition is excellent. This guitar has been played very little. The frets, fretboard, and neck are virtually flawless aside from the relic job of course. The body has a beautiful distressed look that has a lot of bare wood exposed with a blonde finish and white over top. Comes with original hard shell case, COA, floor traveler, and all case candy pictured. The side that structurally holds the door flap inside the case is loose and could be stapled or glued. Not an issue but wanted to call it out.

The Fender Telecaster, known affectionately as the "Tele," emerged as the first mass-produced solid-body electric guitar, marking a significant milestone in music history. Its straightforward design and innovative sound paved the way for new trends in electric guitar manufacturing and popular music. Since its debut in the 1950s, the Telecaster has been celebrated for its versatility, serving artists across genres from country to jazz, rock, and beyond. Its solid construction, characterized by a single-cutaway body made typically from alder or ash and a bolt-on maple neck, contributes to its distinct, bright, and cutting tone as well as a warm, mellow sound depending on pickup selection. With minor modifications over the years, the Telecaster has remained largely faithful to its original design, featuring two single-coil pickups, a three-way selector switch, and simple volume and tone controls. This enduring design has kept the Telecaster relevant and in continuous production, solidifying its status as a beloved icon in the guitar world.
