Used Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt 57 Telecaster Relic by David Brown R129036

Regular price $5,895.00 Sale

This Used Used Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt 57 Telecaster Relic by David Brown is here on consignment. It is a feather-weight at just 6 lbs 14 oz! And it's a beautiful guitar to boot! The transparent ebony stain lets the grain of the Swamp Ash Body peer through for a layered look. 

David Brown is a relatively new Masterbuilder but that doesn't mean he isn't already building killer guitars. This Tele Relic shows off his skills perfectly!

“I hope to bring a perspective that takes into account all of my previous experiences in guitar building and construction. I hope to create these instruments that are the industry standard when it comes to accuracy and feel for the musician. Becoming a Master Builder for the Fender Custom Shop means that you’ve arrived. There is no higher pinnacle than this.” - David Brown

The neck is made from AAA Flamed Roasted Maple and it is carved to a large C Profile. The 1st ret depth measures .875" and the 12th fret depth is .95". It is a full-feeling neck but not overly full like a Nocaster U can feel. A 9.5" fingerboard radius and 6150 frets combine for a smooth, fast-feeling fingerboard. A 1.65" nut width and 25.5" scale length provide a familiar Fender feel. 

Fender Custom Shop 56/57 Telecaster Pickups are installed in this electric guitar, with traditional controls of a master volume, master tone, and 3-way pickup selector. It has a classic, 50s Tele vibe with plenty of bark and bite in the bridge pickup and the typical, slightly more muted neck pickup tone. In the middle we get the perfect blend of both, with a more acoustic-like tone.
