Fender Custom Shop 60s Telecaster Heavy Relic/Closet Classic Mix - Daphne Blue/Pink Paisley

Heavy Relic Wood Meets Closet Classic Hardware
Sweetwater's guitar experts spec'd this Fender Custom Shop '60s Telecaster Heavy Relic/Closet Classic Mix based on feedback we've received from countless guitarists. Many players love the feel of Heavy Relic Fender guitars, which are carefully "aged" to deliver the feel of a well-worn vintage instrument. But many players also preferred the "newer" feel of Fender's Closet Classic hardware, which is less distressed than the normal Heavy Relic hardware. We've combined both to bring you a precision modern instrument that feels and plays like it belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame - the Fender Custom Shop '60s Telecaster Heavy Relic/Closet Classic Mix.

Fender Custom Shop '60s Telecaster Heavy Relic/Closet Classic Mix Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:

Classic Tele design with Heavy Relic finish
Closet Classic hardware for vintage looks and reliable performance
Player-favorite pickups for definitive Tele tone

Classic Tele design with Heavy Relic finish
The Fender Custom Shop '60s Telecaster Heavy Relic/Closet Classic Mix is a classic Tele all the way through. The alder body even sports a color-over-color paint job and nitro finish, for the look of a vintage guitar that's been repainted once or twice. The custom neck is choice AAA flame maple, unfinished for a well-worn feel. Many guitar collectors like the Heavy Relic look, but even more players get these guitars because they feel so comfortable and broken-in.
Closet Classic hardware for vintage looks and reliable performance
The Heavy Relic look naturally calls for highly-distressed hardware, but many players prefer the smoother feel of Fender's Closet Classic hardware. This hardware is slightly aged for a vintage look, but not to the point that it feels rough on your hand while palm muting near the bridge.
Player-favorite pickups for definitive Tele tone
Teles have always been known for their sonic flexibility, and the Fender Custom Shop '60s Telecaster Heavy Relic/Closet Classic Mix doesn't disappoint. The Twisted Tele single-coil pickup at the neck position delivers the iconic bite, twang, and chunk of an original early-'50s Tele, with a bit of Strat-flavored spank too. The Broadcaster single-coil pickup at the bridge delivers tight bass, a bold midrange, clear highs, and enhanced output that's perfect for rock and blues.
