Fender Custom Shop 2020 LTD '50 Esquire Heavy Relic Aged Nocaster Blonde

The Fender Custom Shop do some pretty special things, and with the Custom Shop ’50 Esquire they really push the boundaries of Leo Fenders vision.

This guitar has some serious mojo! With a traditional Ash body, finished in a sweet Aged Nocaster Blonde, the ‘50s Esquire has a unique Heavy relic’d nitro finish, this gives the look and feel of a vintage guitar but with all the tone and playability of a modern one. This finish will wear beautifully with time and develop its own character even further. It also allows the natural resonance of the body to sing and sustain much more effectively compared with other finishes.

The neck is crafted from rift sawn Maple and features a ’50 Blackguard profile, it's real comfortable and with a 7.25"-9.5" compound radius and 21 medium vintage frets it's smooth and at home playing slick runs and crisp chords right up the neck.

Loaded with a single hand wound Blackguard bridge single coil, you get a broad variation of tones. From clean sparkle to a raunchy growl, this guitar really is a players dream.
