Up for sale is an all-original 2008 Fender Custom Shop 1951 Nocaster Reissue in factory Closet Classic Nocaster Blonde. Weighing in at a well-balanced 7.4 lbs, this guitar features a resonant premium ash body paired with a massive, period-correct one-piece maple neck.
The factory Closet Classic treatment provides authentic nitro lacquer weather checking and subtle hardware oxidation, replicating an instrument stored away cleanly for decades. The neck is straight, the truss rod operates properly in both directions, and the vintage-style frets show minimal playwear with plenty of life remaining. All electronics, solder joints, and hardware are 100% factory original and fully operational.
