Fender Custom Shop 1960 Telecaster Thinline - Capri Orange #R143522
The Fender Custom Shop 1960 Telecaster Thinline – Capri Orange is a stunning fusion of classic Fender heritage and modern Custom Shop refinement, designed to deliver iconic Telecaster tone with elevated playability and unmistakable visual flair. Built from a roasted alder body, this guitar offers enhanced resonance, reduced weight, and exceptional stability, while the elegant top and bottom body binding adds a touch of vintage sophistication. Finished in a vibrant Capri Orange, it captures the spirit of early-’60s Fender style while standing out as a true Custom Shop creation.
The neck is a showcase of premium craftsmanship, featuring a 3A roasted flame maple neck paired with a 3A roasted flame maple fingerboard and a matching headstock for a seamless, high-end aesthetic. The ’60s-style Oval “C” back shape provides a comfortable, familiar feel that sits naturally in the hand, ideal for long playing sessions. A 9.5"–12" compound radius fingerboard combined with narrow tall 6105 frets allows for smooth bends, precise intonation, and effortless playability across the entire neck. Traditional clay dot inlays and a 1.65" nut width complete the authentic vintage-inspired feel.
Tonally, this Telecaster delivers rich, articulate sound thanks to a pair of Custom Shop handwound Tomatillo Tele pickups in the bridge and neck positions. These pickups offer classic Tele bite and sparkle with a warm, expressive midrange and exceptional dynamic response. Modern Tele controls provide intuitive access to a wide range of tones, while the RSD Telecaster bridge enhances sustain, tuning stability, and note definition without compromising classic Tele character. A Moto white pearl pickguard adds a refined visual contrast that perfectly complements the Capri Orange finish.
Vintage-style tuning machines ensure smooth, reliable tuning and maintain the guitar’s period-correct aesthetic. This Fender Custom Shop masterpiece comes complete with a hardshell case, strap, cable, full paperwork, and a Certificate of Authenticity, underscoring its elite build quality and collectible appeal. The Fender Custom Shop 1960 Telecaster Thinline – Capri Orange is a beautifully balanced instrument—equally at home on stage, in the studio, or as a centerpiece in any serious collection.
