Description
Fresh out of the Fender Custom Shop is the iconic 1951 Nocaster Relic. Featuring a host of classic visuals, with a tasteful relic job and vintage-style appointments, 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 Nocaster has an incredibly lightweight, yet resonant ash body and 1-piece maple “U” shaped neck for players who favor a bolder feel for fretting notes. The neck is smooth and easy to glide around, with a maple fingerboard that’s adorned with 6105 Frets. Its carefully-worn chrome hardware and butterscotch finish with plenty of nicks, dings and scratches gives it the feel and look of an instrument straight out of the early ‘50s. A set of Custom Shop Twisted Tele pickups give you that classic Telecaster tone, with a tinge of high-frequency jangle usually only heard in Stratocasters, giving it extra sonic versatility. From its iconic sound, to its authentic feel and exceptional playability, the 1951 Nocaster Relic is a tremendous guitar top to bottom.
