Up for sale, a 2023 Fender Custom Shop B2 1958 Telecaster Journeyman Relic in mint condition, complete with the hardshell case, CoA, hangtags, and case candy. Sourced directly from a Fender dealer and never privately owned, this Custom Shop B2 ‘58 Telecaster Journeyman Relic was produced as part of the Time Machine Collection, offering a bevy of vintage-centric features including a 10/56 “V” neck profile, hand-wound ‘58 Tele pickups, and a gloss Aged HLE Gold nitro lacquer finish with Fender’s Journeyman Relic treatment.

The B2 models are a Custom Shop subset for high-end, limited-production instruments featuring upgraded, premium specifications special ordered by major retailers.

Extremely lightweight at 7lbs 2oz, this Telecaster features a two-piece ash body and a quartersawn maple neck with a 9.5" radius fingerboard and 6105 Narrow Tall fretwire. The Aged HLE Gold nitro lacquer finish, as seen on the Haynes Limited Edition Models, exhibits “shattered glass” checking and subtle simulated wear per Fender’s Journeyman Relic treatment.
