The Fender Custom Shop S6 American Custom Relic-Style Telecaster Maple Neck in Aged Daphne Blue is a distinctive blend of vintage Telecaster character and modern performance, featuring a two-piece ash body finished in aged Daphne Blue nitrocellulose lacquer, complemented by a roasted birdseye maple neck and fingerboard with a medium-tinted nitrocellulose finish. Its modern "C" neck profile, 9.5"–12" compound-radius fingerboard, and 22 medium-jumbo stainless-steel frets provide a comfortable, versatile playing experience, while vintage-inspired details include a relic-treated Nocaster bridge, vintage-style hardware, and an aged aesthetic throughout. Sonically, it pairs a hand-wound Twisted Tele neck pickup with an overwound Broadcaster bridge pickup, delivering a versatile range of tones, from clear, articulate neck sounds to punchy, assertive Telecaster bite. Combining the timeless silhouette and character of a 1952 Telecaster with contemporary playability and carefully aged Custom Shop detailing, this instrument offers a distinctive interpretation of the classic Fender formula.
