Sold Heavy Relic Esquire

For sale is a heavy relic esquire built by Angela Arnott at 42nd Street Guitars. You can buy her range of guitars through Vintage & Rare in Bath but this was bought direct from Angela.

I have had it for a few years now and it’s been a great guitar. Very solid gigging guitar, very light and very resonant, easily comparable to Fender custom shop relic esquires I have played. The Bare Knuckle Piledriver pickup has plenty of power to live with humbucker equipped guitars and the Tele bite helps you get heard live. Rolling the volume off slightly tames it for a pure classic Tele bridge sound.

spec is as follows:

Pine body 1 3/4 thickness
Heavy relic nitro finish
licensed by fender all parts one piece maple neck. Thickness .85 at first fret .94 at 12th fret
7.25 radius 25.5 scale length
21 frets 
6230 nickel silver fret wire
1 5/8 nut width 
2 3/16 heel width
Single action truss rod with vintage correct adjuster at heel
Hand cut bone nut
Gotoh tuners
nickel hardware
brass saddles
one ply Bakelite scratch plate 
Bare Knuckle Piledriver pickup 13k
CTS pots
Sprague orange drop cap
Switchcraft jack
cloth hookup wire
CRL 3 way switch

Sale includes hard case

Overall a great sounding, playing, very well made guitar with great spec.

Collection only from Shrewsbury, although a meet up could be negotiated within reason.

Viewings welcome if you want to come and try it out.
