Product details

The Fender Custom Shop '53 Telecaster Time Capsule is a true classic. This guitar is based on the original 1953 Telecaster and features all the iconic design elements that have made it one of the most popular guitars of all time. The duo of the original hand-mounted black bridge pickup and the twisted tele neck pickup provide the perfect balance of warmth and clarity, delivering the classic '50s sound so sought-after by today's guitarists.
