Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

One of only 5 produced, this Limited Edition Telecaster Relic in a heavily aged Thin Skin Sonic Blue is a delight. The chunky C maple neck is wonderfully worn in all the right places, easy to navigate and perfectly comfortable. The bridge pickup here shines like a diamond with spanky Tele twang to cut through the thickest of mixes and deep full neck position tones, perfect for rhythm or thick, overdriven solos.
