From the body woods to the finishes and from the pickups to the hardware, it's a beautiful and exciting evocation of the guitar's very first model year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Aged Natural Mahogany model features a select Fiji mahogany chambered body; the Aged Vintage Blonde and Three-Color Sunburst models feature a chambered ash body. Either way, players will delight in a comfortably lighter weight, classic single f-hole and warm, open sound. All three wear a lacquer Journeyman Relic treatment that imparts a \"used but not abused\" vibe, as if it has been well cared for while changing hands or being handed down over many years of play at home and at the occasional jam session or gig. We're talking long life but only moderate playing wear - a very lucky find with a touch of spidery finish checking, a few \"friendly\" down-to-the-wood nicks and dings and some slight hardware aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Custom Shop hand-wound Texas Special™ Telecaster neck pickup delivers extra bite with a hint of Stratocaster\u003csup data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003epunch, while the Custom Shop hand-wound Original Blackguard Tele\u003csup data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ebridge pickup provides all the twang and clarity for which early-'50s models are celebrated.
