Fender Custom Shop 1963 Telecaster Journeyman Relic 3A Rosewood Fingerboard Black

Available from Gear4Music at £4,299.00 ($5,460).

The Fender Custom Shop 1963 Telecaster Journeyman Relic is a beautifully crafted recreation of a classic early 60s Tele built with the precision and attention to detail that define Fenders Custom Shop instruments. Finished in black with a carefully applied Journeyman Relic treatment it captures the character of a vintage guitar that has seen years of regular use while remaining exceptionally well cared for. Paired with a quartersawn maple neck and a premium 3A rosewood fingerboard this Telecaster delivers the articulate snap clarity and expressive response that made the model a staple of electric guitar history. The 1963 "C" neck profile offers a comfortable vintage-inspired feel while the 9.5" fingerboard radius and narrow tall frets provide a modern balance of comfort and playability. Custom Shop hand-wound Twisted Tele pickups produce a broad tonal range delivering bright Telecaster bite alongside fuller more dynamic neck tones. A traditional strings-through-body Tele bridge with threaded steel saddles enhances sustain and classic attack. Combined with carefully aged hardware and period-correct details the 1963 Telecaster Journeyman Relic captures the spirit of a genuine vintage Fender instrument.
