{"product_id":"855016","title":"Fender Custom Shop USED 2003 Custom '59 Esquire Relic (Black) Mod. [SN.R17420] Fender Custom Shop","description":"A custom-made Esquire! Used item now in stock!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We have received a used Fender Custom Shop Esquire with a very unique modification that shows respect for a certain JB. Based on a 1959 Esquire, this guitar has a cool black relic finish. It is attractive for its realistic aging that looks like it has been played for many years and the high level of craftsmanship that is unique to the Custom Shop. This instrument has been modified with an elbow contour, which makes it unusually easy to play for an Esquire. Furthermore, it is a modified specification with an additional front pickup, and in addition to the rear Custom Shop Hand-Wound Single Coil, it is equipped with a Gibson BurstBucker in the front. You can freely switch between the crispness of the single coil and the thick, glossy tone of the humbucker with the 3-way switch. The fast attack and core sound of the ash body and maple neck and fingerboard remain intact. This is an instrument that allows you to enjoy the excellent resonance of the bolt-on construction and the direct response that is characteristic of Esquire, with a wider variety of sounds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This particular guitar has a repaired crack in the pickguard, an added front pickup, and an added elbow contour. While it already has a relic finish and new scratches are difficult to identify, the body shows overall wear, including scratches, playing wear, discoloration, dents, and significant tarnishing and rust on the hardware. It's in a player's condition commensurate with its age. The frets retain about 70% of their height, and there are no issues with playability, including the neck condition, truss rod, and electronics! This is a guitar you can enjoy for many years to come. Please consider it!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Manufactured in 2003, includes certificate of authenticity and tweed hard case.\u003cbr\u003e Weight ≈ 3.57 kg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBody: Ash\u003cbr\u003e Neck: Maple\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard: Maple\u003cbr\u003e Construction: Bolt-on\u003cbr\u003e Fret:21\u003cbr\u003e Nut:Bone\u003cbr\u003e Scale: 648mm\u003cbr\u003e Control: 1Volume\/ 1Tone\/3waySW\u003cbr\u003e Pickups:Gibson Burst Bucker \u0026amp; Custom Shop Hand-Wound Single Coil\u003cbr\u003e Bridge:3Way Saddle Esquier Bridge","brand":"Fender Custom Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43128717377649,"sku":"855016","price":3245.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/USED__2003_Custom__59_Esquire_Relic__Black__Mod___SN_R17420__Fender_Custom_Shop_01.jpg?v=1775702466","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/products\/855016","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
