The Fender Custom Shop Limited-Edition CuNiFe Telecaster Custom Heavy Relic is a masterful blend of two legendary Telecaster models: the early ’60s Telecaster Custom and the later ’70s humbucker-equipped Telecaster Custom. Its lightweight alder body features an elegant upgrade with double binding on both the front and back, adding a touch of sophistication to its relic’d finish.
Paired with a large “C” maple neck for exceptional stability, the guitar also boasts a modernized rosewood fingerboard with a 9.5-inch radius and narrow tall frets, ensuring smooth, fret-out-free bends. The standout feature is its versatile pickup combination: an authentic CuNiFe Wide Range Humbucker in the neck and a Texas Special single-coil in the bridge. This pairing offers a wide tonal spectrum, from warm, jazzy cleans to a refined take on the classic Tele bite.
This example is in excellent condition and includes the original hardshell case, case candy, and certificate of authenticity.
