The Story

'50s Esquire Relic Nocaster Blonde 2011

This is a great playing 2011 Fender Custom Shop '50s Esquire model, with a Relic Nocaster Blonde finish over an ash body. The guitar is built to vintage-spec with a 7.25" radius and smaller vintage-size frets. These are a great set of neck specs for those who want quick chord-change playing! The guitar has two '51 Nocaster pickups wired to a 4-way switch. The 4-way switch is a great way to get even more tones out of your Tele. When you have the two pickups in series you have a hotter output that's great for driving your amp and almost giving a full-humbucker tone. The guitar is in overall excellent condition with all relic wear appearing original and the hardshell case with COA included.

Includes: Original Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Case Candy
