Fender Custom Shop 1959 Vintage Custom Telecaster Chocolate Sunburst

If you’ve ever wondered what a late ’50s Tele should feel like in your hands, this might be it. The Fender Custom Shop '59 Vintage Custom Tele in Chocolate Sunburst nails the vibe. No gimmicks, just tone and feel dialled all the way in. The double-bound alder body gives it a touch of class, while the slab rosewood board adds warmth and that familiar Fender snap. Those hand-wound ’58 pickups are super responsive, bright, punchy, and dynamic without being harsh. And the Chocolate Sunburst finish? Subtle, rich, and full of character. It’s the kind of guitar you don’t just want to play, you want to keep around for a long time.
