THE TIME MACHINES
Golden-era beauties from Fender’s Custom Shop. The artificial ageing of guitars divides opinion between those who get it, and others who think those souls that do are deluded fools. Well, we love both shiny new, heavily worn and all points in between and luckily for everyone Fender does, too. So, here we have two levels of Relic’ing there are five in total, from ‘hidden under the bed all its life’ to ‘worked half to death’ and all points in between. Our duo up for review comprises a Limited Edition, heavily worn Strat that debuted at Winter NAMM in January, and a lightly aged Tele from the regular 2016 Custom Shop line. Both are built to incredible levels of vintage detail and each is going to set someone’s heart racing.
