Step back into the mid-60s with a guitar that looks like it has headlined a thousand smoky clubs and endured decades of life on the road. This 1965 Telecaster Custom Heavy Relic captures the golden era of Fender design, featuring that iconic double-bound alder body that screams sophistication. The Aged Sherwood Green Metallic finish, battered and worn in all the right places by the masters at the Custom Shop, gives this instrument a "soul" you usually only find in true vintage heirlooms.
Under the hood, the tonewoods do the heavy lifting. The resonance of the alder body is perfectly paired with a rock-solid quartersawn maple neck, offering that snappy response and sustain Tele players crave. Whether you’re channeling the soulful licks of Steve Cropper or the biting rock tones of Andy Summers, this guitar delivers. The hand-wound pickups—a Blackguard in the neck and a Twisted Tele in the bridge—provide a versatile palette ranging from warm, woody rhythms to that legendary "spank" and "twang" that defined the 1960s.
