Description
The Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition Telecaster Custom Super Heavy Relic in Aged Firemist Gold with Aged Burgundy Mist Burst is an instrument built for players who want unmistakable Tele tone wrapped in an unapologetically bold package. This is not a subtle guitar-it's a statement piece, both visually and sonically, designed for musicians who thrive on individuality. As part of Fender's coveted Limited Edition lineup, it's destined to become a prized addition to any serious collection while offering the reliability and feel of a true performance workhorse.
Its foundation is a 2-piece select alder body, finished in nitrocellulose lacquer with a Super Heavy Relic treatment. The wear is extensive and deliberate, simulating decades of hard touring and giving it the unmistakable vibe of a guitar that's lived a life on stage. The quartersawn maple neck, shaped to a comfortable '60s Oval "C" profile, offers a familiar yet refined feel. Topped with a quartersawn maple fingerboard and 21 narrow tall frets, it balances the classic Fender response with effortless playability.
Tonally, this Tele is a powerhouse. The Wide-Range CuNiFe humbucker in the neck position delivers fat, warm lows and airy highs, perfect for everything from rich cleans to gritty overdrive. Paired with a Custom Shop hand-wound '50/'51 Blackguard bridge pickup, it brings the unmistakable Tele bite and clarity that has shaped countless recordings. Together, the 3-way switch and '72 Tele Custom wiring provide a wide tonal range, from glassy articulation to full-bodied punch.
Playability is further enhanced by the 9.5" fingerboard radius and bone nut, offering precise intonation and smooth bends. Hardware includes a '67 Tele bridge with RSD saddles for enhanced resonance and sustain, along with vintage "F" style tuners that lock in tuning stability. Every component is chosen for both authenticity and reliability, ensuring this guitar excels in the studio and on stage.
Visually, the Aged Firemist Gold finish with Aged Burgundy Mist Burst is nothing short of stunning. The heavy relic work tells a story of decades of use, while the color combination gives it a rare, boutique aesthetic. The single-ply black pickguard and knurled chrome hardware complete the rugged yet elegant look, making this one of the most eye-catching Custom Shop Teles to date.
At Cream City Music, we see guitars of every kind come through our doors, but this one stands out as something truly extraordinary. The Telecaster Custom Super Heavy Relic isn't just a nod to Fender's history-it's a bold expression of it, built to be played, admired, and cherished for a lifetime.
