Fender Custom Shop Vintage Custom 1958 Telecaster R139990 2024

This guitar is in great playing shape.  It currently setup as a toploader and plays low and quick.  There is no notable fret wear on any part of the neck.  Fender finishes the Vintage Custom Series with a very thin flash coat nitro lacquer finish, and because of this the guitar is very easily marked.  The idea was that the guitar would actually age or relic on its own a bit quicker.  That being said this guitar was played very lightly but there is very light play wear marks throughout the body, including light surface swirls consistent with pick touches and other handling.  There are no scratches through the surface and no dents or dings anywhere on the guitar.  This tele twangs hard and is incredibly resonate, currently a shop favorite!


In 1958 we modified the design of the venerable Telecaster, switching from a string-through-body bridge to a top-loading bridge. A flexible guitar with authentic Fender tone, the Vintage Custom ’58 Telecaster lets you choose either stringing method, courtesy of the Top-Load Tele bridge with period-accurate threaded steel saddles. The two-piece select ash body wears a pristine translucent Aged White Blonde NOS flash coat lacquer finish that makes it look like this instrument time-traveled from ’58 to today. The tinted riftsawn maple neck’s “U”-shaped profile fills the hand comfortably while the 7.25”-9.5”-compound-radius fingerboard flattens out as you go up the neck, making it easy to bend without fretting out, and 21 medium-vintage frets offer familiar playing feel. The pair of Hand-Wound ’58 Tele single-coil pickups are packed with authentic twang and growl, tied together with vintage-style wiring. For those who want more modern tone, we included a Fat ‘50s Tele wiring and control assembly in the case.
