Fender '59 Esquire Closet Classic, maple

Its unique circuitry and "biting" bridge pickup created a "merciless, maniacal, tone-machine" when first introduced in 1950. The weapon of choice by such greats as Jeff Beck, and Bruce Springsteen to name a few, this guitar has gone on to re-emerge again and again in the hands of many of today's great guitar players. The Custom Shop has painstakingly researched original instruments to be able to offer an exact duplicate of the 1959 Esquire including its rare "top-load" bridge. The result is one of the most responsive and resonant guitars Fender has ever built!
