What We Think

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.

The Fender Custom Shop 1972 Thinline CME Limited Edition is a striking blend of vintage style and modern tonal depth. Its semi-hollow ash body with F-hole delivers a lively, resonant character, while the Curtis Novak Wide Range humbuckers provide rich warmth, clear articulation, and powerful presence. The rift-sawn maple neck with a soft “V” profile and rosewood fingerboard offers a smooth, comfortable feel that invites expressive playing. Finished in a beautifully worn Dirty Surf Green lacquer with elegant pearl binding, it stands out both visually and sonically. Lightweight, dynamic, and expertly crafted, this Thinline is a standout performer and a smart long-term investment!
