Fender Custom Shop 1965 Telecaster Custom Heavy Relic in Aged Ocean Turquoise over 3-tone Sunburst

Astronaut in the Ocean

This Telecaster is an absolutely amazing piece in what Fender does best! Imagine the year is 1965 and you needed an instrument that calls to the past yet leans into the future, then look no further! Equipped with fantastic 1951 Nocaster pickups, these pickups bark and howl with the best of them. They have a subtle warmth to them while being able to drive through the mix! The 60's style Oval "C" is carved to perfection and the 6105 frets really allow you to bend and pull as far as she needs to go.The quarter sawn maple neck also gives you the stability you need and leads to an instrument not in need of continual maintenance. 

In the end, you have a stunning piece, with a stunning ocean turquoise that cannot be trend away from!
