It's into the wild blue yonder with this Fender Custom Shop '55 Telecaster Journeyman Relic in an invigorating Super Aged Sonic Blue. A carefully yet deeply worn example of a vintage Tele, this Custom Shop piece takes off with a suite of unique finish artifacts, dimensions, and electronics for a rush of cool, cool water to the face.

This Fender Custom Shop '55 Telecaster begins with a striking base. A two-piece guitar and bass ash body kicks this all off, sorted for weight. In the Custom Shop build process, bodies can be "sorted for weight," meaning they are picked in construction for their light weight among the lot. This light weight is handled easily and highly resonant, due to the ash pick. The ash is then wrapped in a Fender Custom Shop Journeyman Relic finish in a cool Super Aged Sonic Blue. Highly faded to impart some classy age, this Custom Shop finish is designed to replicate the look of a lacquer finish sustaining decades of age and some minor playwear through its Journeyman Relic finish treatment.

From here, this Fender Custom Shop welcomes a 5/4 quartersawn maple neck in a 10/56 "V" profile. The prominent geometric "V" in this profile is measured out with custom dimensions at it moves from .890" at the first fret to a thick .980" at the twelfth as it moves from lower to higher registers. Connecting with a worn-down feel in the palm, this quartersawn neck has an unfinished Relic back. This neck then fills to a fingerboard that lays out twenty-one 6105 Narrow Tall frets. Fender Custom Shop's Narrow Tall fret wire drops in with great articulation for slightly taller and higher frets across a compound radius fingerboard. Measuring at a round 7.25" and flattening out to a more modern 9.5", this compound radius board is seamlessly playable.

This '55 Telecaster's voice is summoned by two hand-wound 55/56 Telecaster single-coil pickups. Exhibiting some hand-crafted uniqueness and imperfection, these Teles play with all the twang and snap we've all come to love with Fat '50s Tele wiring for smooth tonal sculpting. These single-coils are built up by a strong hardware setup. A 55-57 Tele bridge lands at the base of the scale with Vintage-Style Fender tuning machines and a bone nut at the opposite end. Concerning hardware, across the entire guitar, you'll find a Fender Custom Shop Custom Classic wear finish treatment on all hardware and only Phillips head screws. This Fender Custom Shop '55 Telecaster travels with a Strat/Tele Tweed hardshell case.

It's nothing but blue skies on this '55 Tele – take it all in.

'Monoprice' = Worst stereo banana plugs on T-H-E market.
Size: 5 Pack, Pattern Name: Banana Plugs
The absolute WORST in stereo banana plugs - HANDS DOWN. After installing stereos and components for over 30 years, I'd say I'm experienced. These banana plugs fail at EVERY part of the design. Allow me to explain... 1) Starting with the tips, they are loose off the bat and fit LOOSELY in either the stereo input studs or speaker input studs by their 'girth'. They do not firmly seat in any plug and for this setup, I'm using a nearly $2K setup all together. They 'rock' back and forth (when inserted) and thus create a non-permanent connection, again, seriously making these utter junk. I've seen some items you can get by with over the years, but these aren't even rock bottom. They are unusable! 2) Next, the banana plugs themselves comes as three pieces. No non loosening o-ring seal but a plastic colored want-to-be imitation for positive and negative notation. Why do these stupid things come in three pieces? - I simply can't tell you why. I do know they serve no specific piece to solving the puzzle of installation so why do they come in three pieces...? My speculation is they are cheap china knockoffs. 3) The 'way' in which you normally install the trimmed wiring internally with the 'two-piece' design permits you to firmly CRIMP and hold the unsheathed wiring; but these do not. The overlap/overlay of the exposed wiring can only be about 2/16's of an inch thus not much to create a proper connection with. This single fact eliminates these plugs as even worthwhile component add ons; period. If you can't achieve a good ground/wiring connection, these are a defeated purpose... 4) Because of the design of these, they have no room to crimp and screw on the cable so your forced to nearly break your fingers in an attempt to get the unsheathed wire to overlay the internal threading and twist them on with all your might. This in effect breaks nearly every wire thread internally and then they breaks off inside. Absolute garbage. These are total pieces of non-quality junk that did nothing but makes me waste 30 minutes on attempting to get them securely on and another 25 to locate my Amazon account, find this product in my order and ALARM anyone else from making the same mistake I made. Now, I find out I can't even get a return on these. Thanks Amazon. Thank you third party retailer. You just made me a very dissatisfied decade long customer.

OEM is always the answer
No reason not to go OEM for this! Came with every possible gasket and seal I could need. Specifically for my Alpha One Gen 1 it took maybe 25-30 min to completely install. While you’re there check the base plate for wear and the other surrounding items like your water tube. Rather keep the lower unit off for an extra day to get another part than a catastrophic failure.
