Fender Custom Shop 1960 Telecaster Custom Journeyman – Sparkling Gold w/ Matching Headstock & Factory Bigsby
Fender Custom Shop has once again redefined elegance and playability with this breathtaking 1960 Telecaster Custom Journeyman Relic. Dressed in a rare Sparkling Gold finish with matching headstock, this instrument commands attention before you even plug it in. The subtle Journeyman relic treatment lends just the right touch of vintage character—broken in and stage-ready, without excessive wear.
Adding to its allure, this Tele features a factory-installed Bigsby vibrato, seamlessly integrated for smooth, expressive bends without sacrificing tuning stability. Under the hood, you’ll find hand-wound Custom Shop pickups delivering that unmistakable Tele bite, warmth, and clarity—perfectly balanced between shimmering cleans and gritty overdrive.
The quartersawn maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard is carved to a comfortable early-’60s Oval “C” profile, offering a fast, inviting feel. Traditional double-binding completes the look, providing a touch of class that complements the gold finish beautifully.
Every detail—from the meticulously aged hardware to the resonant lightweight body—reminds you why the Fender Custom Shop sits at the pinnacle of guitar craftsmanship.
