Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition '64 Telecaster Relic Electric Guitar, Aged Lake Placid Blue
Released at a moment when the electric guitar had already taken root in popular music, the original 1964 Telecaster reflected Fender's continual evolution of the model without sacrificing its identity. The Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition '64 Telecaster honors that pivotal era with updated construction, top-shelf components, and Custom Shop craftsmanship that refines the blueprint while keeping its vintage soul intact.
The alder body, sorted specifically for its lighter weight, retains the clarity and midrange punch that helped define early Telecaster tone. Paired with a comfortable '60-style oval "C" maple neck, the guitar offers familiar feel with modern stability. A dark AAA rosewood is spec'd with a modern 9.5" radius and 21 narrow tall 6105 frets.
Electronics are what elevate this Tele into Custom Shop territory. Hand-wound Loaded '51 Nocaster pickups are carefully matched to bring out the full tonal character of the instrument. The bridge pickup delivers articulate twang with authority, while the neck pickup is nuanced and rich, ideal for rhythm and lead alike. A 3-way selector and traditional master volume/tone layout give players full access to the tonal range without clutter.
A Tele 58–63 bridge provides vintage-correct performance with modern precision, anchoring the guitar in classic style. Vintage tuning machines and a bone nut further stabilize tuning while preserving authentic feel and response.
Finished in Aged Lake Placid Blue and housed in a Custom Shop blonde case, this Limited Edition '64 Telecaster blends decades of Fender design insight into a single instrument—equal parts vintage homage and modern tool.
