About this listing
the Fender Custom Shop delves deep into the early years of the Tele® to introduce a unique, transition-era model – the 1954 Telecaster®. Early 1954 marks the last production run of the infamous single-ply black phenolic pickguard on what we now know as a Nocaster® Blonde-finished body, eventually moving to a single-ply white ABS pickguard to match the all-new Stratocaster®.Preserving the iconic appointments of the sought after early Telecaster® guitars, this 1954 model features a two-piece select ash body (with offset seam on the treble side), a one-piece rift sawn maple neck with ’54-style “U” back-shape and vintage compound 7.25” to 9.5” fingerboard radius. Equipped with a pair of Custom Shop hand-wound Loaded ’51 Nocaster® pickups, this guitar has all the clarity and twang you would expect from an early-‘50s Tele®, but with a bit of extra power on tap.The 1954 Telecaster® is available in a number of Custom Shop treatments with varying degrees of wear, including Time Capsule, DLX Closet Classic, Relic®, Journeyman Relic®, Heavy Relic® and Super Heavy Relic®.Other premium features include 21 medium vintage (47095) frets, Fat '50s Tele® wiring, 3-way switch, single-ply black phenolic pickguard, '51-'54 Tele® bridge with brass barrel saddles, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, disc string tree, deluxe hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.HeadstockTelecaster®Neck Material1-Piece Rift Sawn MapleNeck FinishNitrocellulose LacquerNeck Shape1954 "U"Fingerboard Radius7.25" to 9.5" Vintage Compound Radius (184 mm to 241 mm)Fingerboard Material1-Piece Rift Sawn Maple NeckPosition InlaysBlack Micarta Dot - 0.25"Number of Frets21Truss RodVintage-Style Heel AdjustString NutBoneNut Width1.625" (41.3 mm)Nut MaterialBoneFret SizeJescar Medium Vintage (47095)Scale Length25.5" (648 mm)BodyBody2-Piece Select Ash with Offset SeamBody FinishNitrocellulose LacquerBody ShapeTelecaster®Body Material2-Piece Select Ash with Offset SeamHardwareBridge3-Saddle American Vintage Strings-Through-Body Tele® with Brass SaddlesPickguard1-Ply Black PhenolicControl KnobsKnurled ChromeSwitch TipBarrel Style, BlackHardware FinishNickel/ChromeTuning MachinesVintage-Style with Fender® LogoString TreesVintage-Style DiscStringsNickel Plated Steel (.010-.046 Gauges)Neck Plate4-Bolt with Custom Shop "V" Logo
