This Used 2023 Fender Custom Shop 68 Telecaster Thinline Journeyman Relic in 3-Color Sunburst is here on trade. The neck is straight, the frets are still crowned, and the truss rod functions properly. It features a Journeyman Relic level of distressing, and it doesn't seem to have accrued any further wear and tear. Included with the guitar is the original hardshell case and certificate of authenticity.
A Thinline Tele is a thing of beauty, thanks to some added acoustic volume and resonance due to the body being heavily routed out. The body is made of Swamp Ash that sports some nice grain. This one sports a B5 Bigsby Tremolo which not only looks cool but adds some functionality to the instrument as well. Finished in 3-Color Sunburst and then given a Journeyman Relic treatment, this is a great looking Tele in all regards!
A pair of Hand Wound Twisted Tele pickups are the perfect blend of modern and vintage. They provide a more Strat-like tone in the neck position, with a more open, articulate sound. Many players aren't a fan of the more muted, tamped-down tone of the early Tele neck pickups. For them, the Twisted Tele is the perfect choice! This set of pickups was handwound, so it features all the nuance, detail, and articulation you could ask for.
