Guitar Description

A superb example from the Fender Custom shop. This lovely 2017 Telecaster Relic is a 30th Anniversary model. That's 30 years of the custom shop if you were wondering. As is always the case, Fender love to create a limited run in commemoration of their milestones. This Tele came from it's original owner who hadn't played it much, it's all 100% stock and in superb condition. We have had it perfectly set up, frets polished and re strung. A guitar with an insane amount of resonance and sustain, it's a lovely light piece of wood with a great vibe and magic tone.
