Description
The Fender Custom Shop Platinum Anniversary ’63 Tele is limited to just 15 guitars and is only available at Guitar Center. It celebrates the 15th anniversary of Guitar Center Platinum, which houses the most exquisite instruments in our collection. Double-bound and finished in Aged Silver Sparkle, this Tele is an instant ticket to the Bakersfield sound. As a Journeyman Relic, every element has been authentically aged, from the beautiful nitrocellulose checking down to the rusted bridge screws, a byproduct of endless gigs at dive bars and sweat-soaked stages.
The ’63 Tele neck pickup provides rich, vintage single-coil sounds. It pairs with a Twisted Tele in the bridge that is wound slightly hotter—you'll even hear a touch of sparkling Strat tones. Both are handwound and relic'd in the Custom Shop.
Guitar Center spec'd a roasted, quartersawn maple neck topped with a painted headcap; the fretboard is AAA rosewood. This Custom Shop ’63 Telecaster comes with a certificate of authenticity, engraved limited-edition neck plate and a deluxe hardshell case.
