About this listing
This is a mint unplayed 2025 guitar with handwound Texas Specials pickups and a very light weight of only 2,9kg Complete set. 1959 was a monumental transitional year for the Telecaster—marking the shift from the thick one-piece maple necks and single-ply guards of the '50s to the legendary slim profiles, rosewood boards, and multi-ply guards of the early '60s. This Custom Shop reissue beautifully captures those exact mid-year "in-between" transitional specifications."The Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition 1959 Telecaster® Journeyman Relic® takes you straight back to a pivotal transitional year in the history of the world’s original workhorse guitar. Crafted with premium appointments from both late-’50s and early-’60s eras, this instrument features a meticulously sorted two-piece select ash body paired with a gorgeous one-piece rift-sawn maple neck—or an era-accurate slab rosewood fingerboard.The Journeyman Relic® Flash Coat Lacquer finish imparts the look and broken-in feel of a guitar that has changed hands over the decades, seeing steady use but receiving excellent care along the way.Tonally, this '59 powerhouse breathes with exceptional resonance, driven by a pair of hand-wound Custom Shop Texas Special™ single-coil pickups. Wired to a modern Fat '50s Tele® circuit, it serves up a wider, punchier dynamic range with plenty of mid-range bite and clear, chiming highs that never get harsh. Complete with a rare transitional top-load/string-through bridge assembly with threaded steel saddles, this limited edition delivers unparalleled vintage character with modern, effortless playability."Technical SpecificationsBodyBody Material: 2-Piece Select Ash (Sorted for light weight)Body Shape: Telecaster®Body Finish: Flash Coat Nitrocellulose Lacquer (Journeyman Relic® with fine checking and dulled hardware)Body Style: Solid BodyNeck & FingerboardNeck Material: 1-Piece Rift Sawn Maple (Neck Finish: Flash Coat Nitrocellulose Lacquer (Tinted)Neck Shape: Late '50s Large "C" or 1959 Esquire "C"Neck Thickness: .850" (at 1st Fret) / .990" (at 12th Fret)Scale Length: 25.5" (648 mm)Fingerboard Radius: 9.5" (241 mm)Number of Frets: 21Fret Size: Narrow Tall (Jescar 6105 / 47095)Nut Material: BoneNut Width: 1.625" (41.3 mm)Position Inlays: Black Micarta Dots (0.25" spacing) or Vintage Clay DotsTruss Rod: Vintage-Style Heel AdjustElectronicsBridge Pickup: Custom Shop Hand-Wound Texas Special™ Single-Coil Tele®Neck Pickup: Custom Shop Hand-Wound Texas Special™ Single-Coil Tele®Controls: * Master VolumeMaster ToneWiring Layout: Modern Tele® with Fat '50s Control Circuit (preserves high-end when rolling back volume, punchy mid response)Switching: 3-Position Blade Lever (CRL Switch)Position 1: Bridge PickupPosition 2: Bridge and Neck Pickups (In Parallel)Position 3: Neck PickupHardware & Accessories Bridge Assembly: 3-Saddle Vintage-Style Tele® Top-Load or Strings-Through-Body Dual OptionSaddles: Threaded Steel Saddles (Era-accurate for '59)Tuning Machines: Vintage-Style with Fender® Logo (Relic)Pickguard: 1-Ply Parchment or 3-Ply Mint Green (8-Hole transitional style)Control Knobs: Knurled Aluminum / Chrome RelicSwitch Tip: Top Hat Style, BlackNeck Plate: 4-Bolt with Custom Shop "V" Logo, SerializedHardware Finish: Nickel/Chrome PlatingStrings: Nickel Plated Steel (.010-.046 Gauges)Included Accessories: Deluxe Custom Shop G&G Hardshell Case (usually Tweed or Center-Pocket Blonde), Custom Shop Leather Strap, Certificate of Authenticity (COA), and the official Shop Floor Traveler specification sheet.
