More about Postmodern Journeyman Relic® Telecaster®
The 2018 Postmodern Telecaster® is elegantly designed with a reappraisal of modern assumptions. A thoroughly contemporary take on a time-honored classic, it has a lightweight ash body with a comfortably contoured heel, a quartersawn maple neck with a finely sculpted ’60s “C” profile, a fast compound-radius (9.5″-12″) “round-laminated” maple or rosewood fingerboard with 21 narrow jumbo frets, and dual Twisted Tele® pickups with three-way switching and Greasebucket™ tone circuit, which rolls off highs without reducing gain.
Other premium features include a three-ply parchment pickguard, Custom Shop RSD Saddles, American Vintage tuning machines, Schaller® strap locks and Fender “F” logo engraved neck plate. Available in Black, Dakota Red and Aged White Blonde new “Journeyman” Relic® lacquer finishes, which imparts the appearance of years of aging and light use without heavy wear and tear. Includes black textured vinyl hard-shell case.
