Fender Custom Shop 1951 Nocaster Deluxe Closet Classic – Aged Nocaster Blonde

Experience Vintage Perfection with Custom Shop Craft – “Closet Classic” Relic, Timeless Tone


Overview

Bring home a piece of Fender’s golden era with the Fender Custom Shop 1951 Nocaster Deluxe Closet Classic in Aged Nocaster Blonde—a guitar that’s all about authentic vintage character, pristine “Closet Classic” relic finish, and unparalleled playability. Part of the revered 2025 Time Machine Collection, this Nocaster blends meticulous period-correct details with the magic of Custom Shop craftsmanship for the ultimate Tele-style experience.

The two-piece off-center ash body is sorted for lightweight resonance and dressed in a beautifully aged Nocaster Blonde lacquer. The Deluxe Closet Classic finish captures the vibe of a guitar that’s been cherished for decades, with light checking and subtle wear, but cared for and barely played.

The rifle-sawn maple neck features a chunky 1951 "U" profile (.920" at the 1st fret, .990" at the 12th), a medium-tint nitro finish, and 21 vintage upgrade (45085) frets over a 7.25"-9.5" compound radius. Classic black micarta face dots and a bone nut complete the ‘50s look and feel.

This Nocaster is loaded with Hand-Wound ’51 Nocaster pickups and “51 Mod Nocaster” custom shop wiring, providing the punchy, dynamic Telecaster tones that shaped generations of music. Every detail is period-correct: black single-ply pickguard, vintage Tele bridge and tuners, chrome/nickel hardware, and classic “V” logo neck plate. No strap locks, no rear cover—just pure vintage Fender.

Each instrument comes with a Custom Shop Tweed case and a certificate of authenticity.
