In collaboration with our friend at the Fender Custom Shop we are proud to present the Fender Custom Shop Thunder Road 1952 Telecaster. This example is a Journeyman Relic finish Our take on the Telecaster has been in the works for years and we cannot be more proud of the result. This model is super light weight due to a proprietary chambered body which gives the instrument an incredible resonant and lively tone. We designed our own pickup based off the hand wound Nocaster set, we think it sounds amazing and bet that you will as well. In addition these instruments feature an AAA Roasted Flame Maple neck with a 9.5" -12" Compound radius fingerboard and 6105 Narrow Tall frets. The bridge is upgraded with a set of custom shop RSD saddles for the best tone and intonation. If you need to add a Telecaster to your collection we think you should consider one of these!
Weight: 6lbs. 1oz.
