Fender Custom Shop Wildwood 10 1955 Telecaster Thinline – Relic

The Perfect 10

Years ago, we approached our friends at the Fender Custom Shop with a proposal: would they build us guitars that combined the mojo of a true-to-vintage reissue with modern handfeel and comfy modern ergonomics? They were enthused about the idea, and the Wildwood 10 was born. Thanks to the Custom Shop’s incredible craftsmanship and artistry, these guitars look gorgeous, sound killer, and play like butter.

Each of these Custom Shop creations features a thin fifties-style nitrocellulose finish, which allows the voice of the resonant hand-selected tonewoods to shine through. They also have hand-wound Custom Shop pickups that are sure to inspire you to reach new heights on your sonic journey. Wildwood 10s feel great in your hands, too. Their modern 10” radius is suitable for a wide variety of styles and techniques, and their 6105 narrow-tall frets allow you to expend less energy with your left hand, especially when bending strings. To top it all off, they come with a limited edition Dealer Select Wildwood 10 hardshell case and a certificate of authenticity.

Tremendous Thinlines

The Telecaster Thinline is an electric guitar with an illustrious heritage. Designed by Roger Rossmeisl (the man responsible for many of Rickenbacker’s classic designs), the Tele Thinline arrived on the scene in 1968. Though it didn’t set the world on fire initially, players have come to love and revere the Tele Thinline because of the way it melds Tele twang, sparkle, and bite with semi-hollow warmth and woodiness. Our Wildwood 10 Telecaster Thinlines capture the brilliance of those Rossmeisl-designed originals by pairing the finest tonewoods with real CuNiFe Wide-Range Humbuckers and fifties-style nitrocellulose lacquer finishes to create a truly intoxicating sonic cocktail. But, they also have a modern 10″ radius and narrow-tall 6105 frets for superior playability and comfort. So, you get to have your cake and eat it, too! We invite you to browse our selection of Wildwood 10 Telecaster Thinlines and see for yourself which colors, neck profiles, and relic’d finishes speak to you. We’re sure you’ll find one that will inspire you to make all sorts of joyous noises.
