Another quality Guitar from Lovies Guitars!
Lovies Guitars is excited to present this Minty! 2018 Fender Custom Shop 1956 Telecaster Journeyman Electric Guitar finished in Relic Blonde. This exceptional Custom Shop Telecaster captures the feel, tone, and character of a well-loved mid-1950s Fender while delivering the precision, playability, and craftsmanship of a modern Custom Shop instrument. The Journeyman Relic treatment provides the perfect balance of vintage appearance and subtle aging, creating the look of a cherished guitar that has been carefully played over the years.
The 1956 Telecaster platform is legendary for its unmistakable twang, clarity, and dynamic response. This Custom Shop example delivers classic Tele tones with plenty of punch, articulate highs, and a tight, responsive low end. The hand-selected components and vintage-inspired construction provide exceptional touch sensitivity, making it equally suited for country, blues, rock, indie, and beyond.
The Blonde finish with factory Journeyman Relic treatment gives this Telecaster an authentic vintage aesthetic while maintaining a clean and refined appearance. Every detail reflects Fender Custom Shop’s dedication to recreating the feel and spirit of the original golden-era instruments.
This guitar is all original (OG) and comes complete with its Certificate of Authenticity (COA), Original Hardshell Case (OHSC), and original case candy.
Condition: 9.8/10 - Excellent. Minty condition with light play wear consistent with the factory Journeyman Relic finish. No additional notable wear beyond the intentional aging from Fender Custom Shop.
