’52 California Beach Custom Shop Telecaster

WOW! What a beautiful guitar. Like most Fender Custom Shop’s, its made to the best standards. Precise measurements, and meticulous attention to detail. Its a N.O.S finish (New Old Stock), California Beach series and is no. 127 of 150 ever made. Alder body, maple neck, with medium jumbo frets….yes, its a players dream!!!!

    Hi Kle,

    I believe they are both Custom Shop – Texas Specials… for some reason there is little information from Fender about this run of instruments. Perhaps because it was such a limited run & was also only available to Fender Europe.

    Here is a little info about it:

    There is also a stratocaster:
