Fender Custom Shop 1957 Telecaster Super Heavy Relic 2025, Aged Cherry Sunburst

This Limited Edition 1957 Telecaster Super Heavy Relic from the Fender Custom Shop leans fully into the look and feel of a hard-worked original, with bold, unapologetic aging that gives it decades of road-earned character right out of the case. The lightweight ash body resonates easily, while the quartersawn maple neck with a ’57-style soft “V” back shape delivers that unmistakable early-Tele grip—substantial, but never cumbersome. A modern 9.5" radius and narrow tall frets keep it feeling fast and playable despite the vintage bones.

Custom Shop hand-wound ’58 Tele pickups bring the goods, offering classic Tele bite and clarity with a little extra girth, paired with Fat ’50s Tele wiring for a familiar, muscular response across all three positions. Every detail, from the heavily worn lacquer finish to the vintage-style hardware, feels intentional and convincingly broken in. A bold, character-forward take on a Telecaster that looks, feels, and sounds like it’s already lived a full life. Comes with Deluxe Hardshell Case and Certificate of Authenticity.
