This Fender LTD 51 Telecaster NOS guitar started with a two-piece Ash body in the 1951 ‘NoCaster’ style and ‘NoCaster Blonde’ finish and an AA-grade quarter sawn Flame Maple 51 style neck. From there, the neck received a compound radius – 7.25 to 9.6 inch radius – tall narrow frets (Dunlop 6105 style), a 19/56 ‘V’ profile, and a bone nut.

This example is in very good, clean condition with extremely light wear, and is sold with its original rectangular Fender case. The original steel saddles are in the case, and a set of intonated brass saddles have been installed for improved intonation and tuning.

This is not entirely a slavish copy of a 1957 model, as the center pickup is RW/RP (reverse wound, reverse polarity) to provide hum-cancelling in positions 2 and 4 of the 5-way switch.
