About this listing
Fender - Custom Shop 1958 Top Loader Telecaster Journeyman Relic - Electric Guitar - Firemist Red - w/ Hardshell Case
The 1958 Telecaster from the Custom Shop blends the unmistakable character of a late-’50s whiteguard design with a striking custom finish and subtle modern refinements. While Firemist Red wouldn’t have been seen on guitars leaving the factory in 1958, it suits this instrument beautifully, especially paired with the lightly aged Journeyman Relic treatment. The two-piece ash body showcases the finish flawlessly while retaining an authentic, broken-in look.A pair of hand-wound ’58 single-coil pickups capture the unmistakable snap, twang, and warmth associated with vintage Telecasters, delivering tones that feel equally at home with gritty rock lines or sparkling country rhythms. The quarter-sawn maple neck is shaped into a substantial Soft V profile inspired by late-’50s designs, offering a comfortable, confidence-inspiring grip.Playability is enhanced by a 9.5-inch fingerboard radius and 21 narrow-tall frets, making it easier to navigate bends and chords while retaining a classic feel. Vintage-style tuning machines and a period-correct bridge that supports both top-loading and string-through setups complete the package, giving players flexibility in feel and response to suit their personal preference.
