The Limited Edition Hotshot Telecaster Relic from the Fender Custom Shop brings a vintage feel and unique playability to the stage. Inspired by the legendary 1950s models, the two-piece ash body features a noble Aged Cimarron Red nitro finish that gives the guitar an authentic patina and the charm of a well-worn road instrument. The one-piece maple neck with classic Telecaster headstock is shaped in the comfortable 1957 Soft "V" profile. Combined with the 7.25"–9.5" compound radius and 21 narrow-tall 6105 frets, it offers the perfect balance of traditional feel and modern playability. The high-quality nitro finish adds to the guitar’s striking stage presence.
The Hotshot Telecaster Relic is equipped with hand-wound Custom Shop pickups that cover the full vintage spectrum. A Tomatillo Tele neck pickup, a reverse-wound Ancho Poblano Strat single coil in the middle position, and a powerful Crushed ’50/’51 Blackguard humbucker on the bridge make this guitar extraordinarily versatile. With the 5-way switch and master volume and tone controls, it offers everything from warm, bell-clear cleans and crisp mid-pickup funk sounds to assertive rock riffs and singing leads with bite. The guitar combines the tonal DNA of early Fender models with a flexible modern circuit.
Premium hardware and refined details underline the guitar’s high-end character. A 3-saddle ’51 Nocaster bridge with brass saddles delivers authentic vintage vibe, clear attack, and long sustain. Vintage-style tuners with Fender logo, a bone nut, and American Vintage string trees ensure stable tuning. A single-ply parchment pickguard, gold pot knobs, and the classic Relic finish make the Hotshot Telecaster visually unique. Supplied with a deluxe hardshell case, strap, and certificate of authenticity, this Limited Edition Hotshot Telecaster Relic is both a collector’s item and a professional instrument, combining vintage tone with modern playability.
