SOLD
Fender 2015 limited edition Custom Shop Esquire Relic, 55 reissue. Comes with Custom Shop kit of spare Telecaster pickguard, switchplate assembly and neck pickup, for simple conversion from Esquire to Tele if you so wish. (Esquire bodies are routed for a front pickup from the factory, in case you're wondering. Quartersawn maple neck with 10/56 soft V profile, 9.5” radius and 6105 frets. Complete with limited edition embroidered case, COA and candy. Great sounding Josefina Campos pickups. Super lightweight at just 6lbs 10oz and very resonant. 

£1800 firm, collected from Salisbury in Wiltshire. Or I have a Fender carton and could ship at cost. I’m not really looking for trades. 

Thanks for looking.

    Very nice!  I was tempted to get one of these when they were around a couple of years ago.  I haven't got any of the things on your swap list, though.

    When you mentioned "larger neck profiles", did you mean larger than the 10/56, or just the bigger CS neck shapes (as opposed to the Mid-Sixties C or whatever)?

    I just meant larger than the typical 60s slim necks you get on most rosewood board Strats. Thanks.

    Understood.  Although I have to say, those skinny necks have probably saved me from blowing a lot of money on rosewood board Strats....

    The 60-63 re-issue necks are pretty slim. The AVRI '65 neck has more substance to it. :)
    Be seeing you.

    I've got a thinline Tele with the custom shop '65 profile, which I assume is similar to the '65 AVRI.  It's OK, reasonably fat around the 12th fret (as I think the '60 to '63 ones are too), but it's still too thin at the nut end.

    Sorry to derail the thread, by the way, but I guess it's a Bump!

    it is a 10/56 profile on that Esquire - I originally sold it so know it - So more meat than most 60's spec'd models - Less meat on the shoulders than the black guard Nocaster big 50's U profile - If I recall it has a big vibrant acoustic voice

    I have a 65 CS relic that has the oval profile but I think the OP is after a similar 10/56 rosewood strat neck. Any out there on a CS strat or would this be special order?

    For that specific neck profile on a rosewood board strat it would have to be a special order. But I’m not only after that exact neck shape - any rosewood board CS Relic would be considered!  :)

    very few, 60's spec'd models would have such a large neck - the 65 C is larger than a regular 60's C, yet still slimmer than a 10/56 and indeed the 51 Nocaster U profile - so yes chances are a custom order
