The Fender Custom Shop ’60s Telecaster Light Relic is a refined re-creation of the classic 60's Telecaster built in 2008. It features a vintage-style alder body, maple neck with a rosewood or maple fingerboard depending on the build, and factory-applied light relic nitrocellulose finish that gives just enough wear to look well-travelled yet still pristine. Hand-wound single-coil pickups deliver crisp tele twang and dynamic response—ideal for players who want vintage tone with boutique craftsmanship.
