Overview

A versatile survivor for the gigging guitarist.

The Fender '50s Telecaster Thinline Relic Electric Guitar is an electric guitar that delivers vintage look, feel and tone without breaking the bank. This is a Tele that was designed using 1950s specs augmented by a rosewood neck, handwound Tele pickups, modern wiring and 6105 frets.

Like classic cars or your favorite T-shirt, some things just get better with age. That's especially true of electric guitars-they develop an unmistakable mojo over time that makes them look even cooler and feel even more comfortable than when they were brand new. In that regard, the Fender '50s Telecaster relic is a true player. It comes with hardshell case.
