Wildwood Guitars • Fender Custom Shop 2019 Limited 1963 Telecaster • SN: CZ541910
It's fitting that this limited-edition Telecaster has a Candy Tangerine finish, because it sounds sweet and delectable! But, before we talk tone, let's take a moment to appreciate the spectacular super heavy relic job on the finish. It oozes vibe, doesn't it? Sonically, this serial is a powerhouse. The hand-wound Broadcaster single-coil in the bridge position is glorious. Its midrange is touch-sensitive and snappy, and when you really dig in, you get a cool expressive timbre that reminds me of the human voice--almost like a cocked wah pedal sound. The highs have plenty of sparkle and chime, and the lows are woody and twangy with plenty of girth. The neck pickup is a hand-wound Twisted Tele, and it ity beautiful for all things warm and mellow. The lows are robust, woody, and clear, the midrange is broad and throaty, and the highs are righteously smooth and open. Anyone looking for a Tele full of classic sounds will dig this serial!
