INCREDIBLE WORK OF ART!!
You are looking at a 2005 Fender Custom Shop Master-Built 63 Twisted Telecaster Relic with a Bigsby and a killer tinted Maple flamed neck! Please don't confuse this with the limited run of 'team-built" guitars... This one was actually personally built by Yuriy himself. He built 50 of these guitars and this is # 46 of this series. I actually have a real vintage 1968 Telecaster... and it's amazing to see how similar these guitars really look! Yuriy is nothing short of a genius! With meticulous attention to detail by the master himself, this guitar oozes with an incredible vibe! The set up is perfect and she plays with ease... and she sounds awesome! The Twisted Tele pickup really has an extra cool crunch that kicks it up a notch! No disappointments here! She's 100% original and ready to go!
Here is the low-down on the features;
- 2-Piece Premium Ash Body
- Custom Shop Limited Edition Series (Master-Built)
- Light Relic treatment
- Vintage white nitrocellulose lacquer finish
- C-shaped flamed maple neck with a vintage tint
- Maple fretboard with 7-1/4" radius
- 21 vintage frets
- Hot-rodded Twisted Tele single-coil neck pickup
- '63 Custom single-coil pickup in the bridge position
- Bigsby B-6 vibrato tailpiece
- 1-ply black pickguard
- Fender/Gotoh vintage-style tuning machines
- Nickel/chrome hardware
- She Weighs 8.4 lbs.
- Serial # 46 of 50
She was born on September 30th, 2005 and has been totally babied ever since! I just picked this up in a trade deal from a guy who's got an awesome collection of guitars. Subsequently, this one did not get played much at all. I'm not going into details about nicks and dings... as each and every flaw on this guitar was strategically placed by the Master-builder himself. The guitar is in the same condition as the day Yuriy finished building it. Otherwise, the neck is straight, with no cracks or repairs... the frets are perfect with their entire life ahead of them... and the sound is pure Tele! Also included is the original special edition Custom Shop case (shown in pics) and it even includes all of the case candy, leather strap and leather portfolio with the Certificate and spec sheets... By the way... this also includes a DVD from Yuriy himself! You're really gonna dig this axe!! WHOEVER wins this auction is going to be STOKED!!
