Personal Thoughts
This is a really cool Custom Shop Tele and a spec that feels very well judged. The Shell Pink finish with the double-bound body gives it loads of visual charm, but it is the underlying spec that makes it especially appealing. The Texas Special set should give it a bit more push and attitude than a more traditional low-output Tele build, while the 9.5" to 12" compound radius and narrow tall frets make it a much easier guitar to live with for modern players. I also really like the AAA slab-style rosewood board here, which suits the look perfectly and adds a bit of warmth to the overall feel of the guitar. The Journeyman relic treatment is tasteful as well, giving it that lightly played-in Custom Shop character without looking overdone. A very attractive and very usable Telecaster Custom build.
Condition Report
Mint condition. Factory Journeyman relic as part of the original Custom Shop spec. No additional wear beyond the intentional factory ageing.
