This is a seriously cool Tele – the relic’d look and feel are spot-on, and the humbucker in the neck position gives it a surprising amount of growl for rhythm playing. It’s perfect for players wanting that vintage vibe with a modern touch, especially those into blues, classic rock, and a little bit of everything.

Frequently Asked Questions
The 10/56 profile is a modern interpretation, offering a comfortable feel that’s thinner than a traditional ‘50s Tele neck, but still retains a vintage character.
It's a genuinely convincing heavy relic job, with wear patterns that look naturally aged – it’s not just surface scratches, but feels like a guitar with a history.
The Antiquity Zebra humbucker softens the traditional Tele twang, adding warmth and thickness, but it doesn't completely eliminate it – it blends surprisingly well with the single-coil.
