The pickup is a Custom Shop Hand-Wound Loaded '51 Nocaster in the bridge, on a 2-piece select alder body with a 3-ply mint green pickguard and the light wear of the DLX Closet Classic finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe three-way switch works Esquire style: position 1 is the bridge pickup with the tone control out of the circuit, position 2 brings the tone control in, and position 3 is the pickup with a preset treble roll-off for a darker sound. The rift sawn maple neck has a '60s Oval \"C\" back, a 3A Rosewood board, a 7.25\" to 9.5\" compound radius and Jescar Medium Vintage frets. It uses an RSD Jaguar\/Jazzmaster bridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the original fixed-bridge Esquire, look at the 1956 Esquire Relic with Closet Classic Hardware or the Vintage Custom '59 Esquire. The 1967 Telecaster Bigsby DLX Closet Classic is the two-pickup choice with a Bigsby and the same light aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree finishes: Faded Shell Pink, Black and Faded 3-Color Sunburst.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe photos show one example.
