This limited '51 Nocaster was originally developed for the Namm 2017, but was so popular that it was still built in 2019. And rightly so! With the mix of a Handwound Nocaster Bridge pickup and a Handwound Tele Tex Special Neck pickup you get energetic vintage twang sound at its best. The powerful Nocaster U-profile of the neck with its modern 9'5" radius and 6105 frets is a lot of fun, especially since the backside of the neck has been freed from varnish for more grip. The Relic department of the Custom Shop did a great job and added a lot of dings and dongs to the ash body and the rather dark coloured maple neck. If you like the Relic look and are looking for a great sounding Tele at a price far below the masterbuild level, you'll have a lot of fun here. The guitar is as good as new.
