From the Fender Custom Shop comes another stellar sample of top-shelf, vintage inspired goodness. This Fender Custom Shop '50 Esquire Heavy Relic is a Limited-Edition model finished in the fabled Aged Nocaster Blonde. The 2-piece ash body is sorted for lightweight, and combined with the simple, single-pickup config, allows this guitar to come in at a feathery 6 pounds, 15 ounces.  The nitrocellulose lacquer is applied extremely thin, and then relic'd to perfection in the Custom Shop. This Equire features arm-wear down to the wood, fading seamlessly into undercoat and then to topcoat. Nicks and dings are heavy throughout, with serious buckle-rash on the back. The edges around the body are chipped and worn to the wood as you would see on a Tele leaned on amps and bumped and bruised on stage for the past 70+ years. 

The rift-sawn maple neck sports the meaty 1950 Blackguard neck profile which starts out at 9.25" thick at the 1st fret and bumps all the way up to a full 1" at the 12th. This is a holy grail profile for fans of the bigger necks. A nice touch from the Custom Shop that you would not have seen in 1950 is the compound radius on this guitar. It starts at the round, vintage-correct, 7.25" and flattens out to the more modern 9.50" radius as you move up the neck. Great for round chord shaping in 1st position but allowing choke free bends up top with lower action. The heavy relic treatment continues on the neck with finger wear to the wood in all the right places on the fretboard and bare wood on the back of the neck from the 1st to the 12th. The transition from bare wood to finish on the back is completely seamless like a well-worn vintage guitar.

Central to the design, this Fender Custom Shop '50 Esquire features a single pickup in the bridge. The hand-wound 50/51 Blackguard Tele single-coil is controlled by a 3-way switch, volume, and a tone. The "Full Throttle" wiring is simple and purposeful, allowing all the right sounds to come from the simple configuration. 

  • Position 1: Straight to the jack, bypassing volume and tone controls
  • Position 2: Incorporates volume control, bypasses tone control
  • Position 3: Standard volume and tone controls in the mix

Ships complete in a Fender Custom Shop tweed hardshell case with COA and case candy.

  • 7.25"-9.50" Compound Fingerboard Radius
  • "Full Throttle" Esquire Wiring

waste of money
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-136‘’W-Round Pad
This is a total waste of money. Its only going to free stand if you arent moving it. If you are planning on dividing a room, and then folding these for space and then dividing the room again, itll last a few days. The poles kept coming off of the screws that holds the fabric on the poles together. Was fixing this EVERY DAY. Finally got tired of doing this and just threw it out. Lot of money spent on garbage. Get a sheet room divider, or something that isnt cheaply made. Was simply making an office type space in a bedroom, to seperate the two areas for work, and folding it kept making the poles come off those twisted screws. just not worth it.

Absolutely love this room divider!
Color: Beige, Size: 3 Panel-102‘’-Round Pad, Color: Beige, Size: 3 Panel-102‘’-Round Pad
When they say you can't see anything through it, they are correct. As you can see by the video, the cars are traveling by with the sunlight on the divider and you still can't see any cars passing nor can you see the ones in the parking lot. You can also tell it blocks out the sunlight too which is a definite plus for our store. Quality material on the divider. Material is nice and snug on the poles with no ripples. I also like the base of these, they make the divider nice and sturdy and can be adjusted if floor is uneven. Also the design of the legs allow them to go under your furniture. Also putting them together is pretty easy. Just make sure you when you are putting the poles together to make sure at the top of the pole that the indent screw hole faces out. This makes for a better look. The directions don't say which way to turn and at 1st, I had one, one way and the other was another way as both ways work that way but I wanted a uniform/better look.

Works well, need power tool to assemble
Color: Beige, Size: 3 Panel-102‘’-Round Pad, Color: Beige, Size: 3 Panel-102‘’-Round Pad
Sturdy enough, especially when feet are positioned for balance. Works perfectly to create a WFH “cubicle”. Can adjust the size to provide complete privacy or fold back a panel when I want more openness. The fabric panels are not perfectly taught, but pretty close. The only negative is that without my husband’s power drill/screwdriver we wouldn’t have been able to put it together. It would take the strength of Thor to do it with just a manual screwdriver.

Now I don't have to see the "black hole" that used to be my family room!
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel-136‘’W-Round Pad
I have an adult child living at home and his bedroom is tiny, so he's pretty much taken over the family room. We are both much happier now that the divider is up. It is about 12 feet long and gives him privacy to watch his movies and play his video games. And I don't have to see all the shoot-em-up stuff he likes to watch. I put the divider together with just a screwdriver (not a power one, that would be nice but I don't have so I had to use a little elbow grease.) It took a couple hours. The instructions are straightforward. I did have to use my long dining room table to attach the feet to the divider panels, which was a bit tricky. But I'm really pleased with the end result. I'm NOT a handywoman, so I feel proud that I did it "all by myself." He wanted the black fabric, but I think the lighter colors would have been better for a room that gets hot in the summer. Just my opinion. Whatever color you choose, I think you'll like the end result.

Busted spring on one side....
Color: Black, Size: 28-70"W x 48-120"H (Pack of 1), Color: Black, Size: 28-70"W x 48-120"H (Pack of 1)
I would have given it five stars except for the fact that 1) the instructions that come with it are miserable so you will definitely want to refer to the photos they have in the advertisement here, and 2) it appears that one of the vertical poles has a busted spring and I literally had to stuff some socks underneath it to make it hold. Definitely an eyesore, so I'm not thrilled about that. With that being said, I'm in an apartment and I don't want to drill in the walls to hang a curtain rod. My sliding glass doors have a track that I was able to get brackets that fit over the track to hold a pole, but I had one window that I could not do that with. I thought this would be an interesting way to hang curtains without doing damage. I considered those sticky tape curtain rod holders, but I was reading a lot of bad reviews about them not holding or them taking the paint off upon removal. I figured this was the better option and it gave the room some nice aesthetics because my furniture is farmhouse white wood with black iron accents, so this blended really well with the aesthetics of the room. I know that most people who did reviews used this product as its advertised to be a room divider for privacy... So I figured this is a nice way to review using this product in a different way. I just really can't stand window blinds, as they look so commercial and industrial to me... I needed a way to make the space seem more homey. While this is working fine for me, the reality is I have white lace curtains, which don't weigh much. I don't know that I could recommend this product, even though it says it can support a bit of weight, with curtains that are too heavy. Some of that, in part, is due to the fact that one of my springs is broken so it's not very stable as it is. However, even if I was not having the issue with the spring being busted on one side, I still don't think this would be good with heavy curtains (especially if you like opening your curtains frequently). It did come with curtain hooks if you have the kind of curtains that allow you to use hooks to hang them. I do not. My curtains just slide onto the pole. If they were the type that could be put up with hooks then opening and closing them would probably be easier and maybe not as big of a deal as it is for me with the type of curtains I have. I cannot comment on longevity as I just installed it today... If anything changes I will try to remember to come back and modify this review.
