Description
Fresh out of the Fender Custom Shop is the 1951 Telecaster NOS in Aged Nocaster Blonde. Featuring a host of classic visuals complete with an NOS finish package, in addition to the iconic tone that made it a hit initially, it is an incredible instrument that truly lives up to its name. Built to 1951 specs, this Tele has an incredibly lightweight, yet resonant ash body and 5/4 quartersawn 10/56 “V” neck for players who favor a bolder feel for fretting notes. The neck is smooth and easy to glide around, with a 7.25” to 9.5” compound-radius maple fingerboard that is adorned with Narrow Tall / 6105 Frets. Its chrome hardware and "Aged Nocaster" finish is in pristine condition and appears just like it would have if you opened up a fresh, never-played original. A set of Handwound ’50-‘51 pickups give you that classic single-coil twang from Fender’s early days, delivering a dose of nostalgia with every note played. From its iconic sound, to its authentic feel and exceptional playability, this 1951 Telecaster NOS is a tremendous guitar from top to bottom.
