We just took in an amazing Fender Custom Shop build with this special run Telecaster Thinline.  It has the Joureyman Relic treatment, so you get aging, finish checking and slight wear to recreate the vibe of a guitar that has been played for decades but still well taken care of.  Built in 2025 this guitar gives you the snap of a 50s Tele in a lighter, airier semi-hollow body.  The Custom Shop did this as a Limited Edition, in a few different colors - here we have a great one in Aged Fiesta Red.

The body is two-piece select ash, chambered on the bass side with the classic f-hole. That takes weight out and adds a bit of open, woody air to the Tele attack, without losing the cut you want from a Telecaster.  The one-piece quartersawn maple neck has a 1957 soft “V” (.880 - .990"), which is quite comfortable...it fills your hand without feeling clubby, and the soft shoulders keep it easy to grib for chords. You get the modern tweak of  9.5" radius and narrow tall 6105 frets, making bends easy and no fretting out in the higher register.

This Tele is loaded with a hand-wound Custom Shop Original Blackguard in the bridge for that early-50s twang and bite, paired with a hand-wound Texas Special in the neck. The latter has more output and midrange than a typical Tele neck pickup, and is hot - so in either position, lead lines can stand out.  While most Tele Thinlines are ideal for clean playing, this one sounds great overdriven as well.  The Greasebucket tone circuit lets you roll the treble back without the sound turning to mud.

Other features include a 3-saddle American Vintage string-through bridge with brass saddles for plenty of snap and sustain, vintage-style tuners, a disc string tree, and a one-ply parchment pickguard.  The 4-bolt neck plate is engraved “Limited Edition.”

The guitar comes with the original hardshell case, all accessories and the Certificate of Authenticity.  Setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop, it's ready to go.
