The quintessential Fender! Best of the best. One of seven relics to arrive in the UK with this incredibly rare two tone finish in celebration of Fender Custom Shop's 20th anniversary. These are now sold out across the U.K. with an RRP of £2379. It has had light home use with some typical marks due to play wear on the brass saddles. It comes complete with all the certificates, ashtray Bridge, fender custom shop leather strap, lead and case candy. The case is in near mint condition as is the guitar...though it is a relic! For those telecaster fanatics out there you'll be excited to hear it weights in at around 7.28 lbs... so this is an incredibly light, chimey and resonant swamp ash body. Combined with the quarter sawn maple neck this is one of the best telecasters I've played. Being sold as I'm looking to invest in more acoustic guitars. It will be securely packaged and sent asap. Collection in person from Norwich is also welcome. I also ask that you pay immediately after the auction ends via PayPal otherwise the guitar will go to second chance offers. No returns as she's perfect! Anyone questions please get in touch. 100% positive feedback so bid with confidence! Here's what Fender have to say about the model: "Mojo, vibe, coolness: words often used to describe a vintage Fender guitar that has not only seen history, but also made history. From the genesis of solidbody electric guitars in 1950 to the unleashing of the popular Relic guitars, Fender has been there for the momentous events that defined guitar culture. Each Custom Shop Limited Edition instrument is only available for a short time, which makes it eminently collectible and adds to its investment value. Crafted with many features reserved only for certain artists and master built instruments, they are just what the name says they are: highly anticipated limited-edition models that go very quickly. The year 1995 was a landmark in the history of the Fender Custom Shop-the year it introduced the world to Relic guitars at NAMM, including the venerable -51 Nocaster. Displayed in two glass cases, along with the -56 Mary Kaye Stratocaster®, with no fanfare, these instruments blindsided dealers who were awestruck by what they believed were original models displayed in tribute to the company-s roots-examples of collectors- and tonehounds' most-wanted guitars. Little did they know these two instruments were actually "new pairs of old shoes"-offering the beloved authentic vintage sound and broken-in feel of the original -50s models without requiring decades of use. Ingeniously "reliced" by the Custom Shop and limited to a run of 95 units (a tribute to the year they were released), the Fender Custom Shop 20th Anniversary Relic Nocaster honours the evolution of relicing and the Custom Shop-s mastery of the art. The 1995 NAMM originals respected the Fender legacy-the Telecaster as a true workingman's guitar that stands up to the tests of time and hard use. It-s more than "just an instrument," it's an extension of the player. "
