Limited Edition Reverse 1960 Tele Custom, Heavy Relic
New for 2023, the Fender Custom Shop introduces the Limited Edition Reverse '60 Tele Custom Heavy Relic. The two-piece select alder body with offset seam wears Heavy Relic lacquer finishes in Three-Color Sunburst, Aged Daphne Blue over Three-Color Sunburst, Aged Olympic White over Three-Color Sunburst and Aged Black over Three-Color Sunburst. This is the heaviest of the Relic treatments, with each imparting the look of a Telecaster that has been used and abused over six-plus decades.
With its large "C"-shaped roasted quartersawn maple neck and flat-laminated rosewood fingerboard, players get the benefits of a thick, full feeling neck that's comfortable and easy to play. A Custom Shop hand-wound reverse angle Loaded '51 Nocaster® bridge pickup is paired with a Seymour Duncan® '59™ SH-1N humbucker in the neck position for a versatile Tele with all the punch, bite and full-bodied tone a player could hope for.
Other premium features include 7.25" to 9.5" vintage compound radius, 21 narrow tall (6105) frets, Dual Stack HS Tele wiring, angled 3-way switch, 4-ply brown shell pickguard, reverse angle Nocaster® bridge with RSD compensated brass saddles, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, wing string tree, deluxe hardshell case, strap, and certificate of authenticity.

FENDER CUSTOM SHOP
A Fender Custom Shop instrument is extraordinary. You know it when you play one—it’s definitely more than the sum of its parts. It’s filled with intangible, electrifying elements that add a new dimension to your playing experience. It’s as if the instrument itself is imbued with history, alive with the spirit of the place where it was built and the devotion of those who crafted it.
The Custom Shop is home to Fender’s most skilled and talented builders. It’s a bustling, noisy and creatively volcanic place that re-earns its nickname—the Dream Factory—every day. Custom Shop builders are completely dedicated to their art—part craftsman, part artist, part music fan and, more often than not, part mad scientist. They’re the best at what they do, and they pour all of their passion, hard-earned knowledge and skill into every instrument they build. It’s no ordinary place, and the creations that come from it are no ordinary instruments. This is Fender Custom Shop.
