Torn and Frayed and everything in between, this '51 Nocaster Super Heavy Relic captures the vibe of a decades-worn Fender with some serious tone and playability.
2023 Fender Custom Shop '51 Nocaster Super Heavy Relic just into the shop! This is a super vibey build that combines some excellent specs like the '59 Esquire C neck carve and the handwound '51 Blackguard pickups along with some beautiful roasted Ash and Maple. It honestly feels (and looks) more like a Masterbuilt Fender, which is no surprise given its completion under Ron Thorn's tenure.
