Mike DeTemple's instruments have long been respected for their meticulous interpretation of early Fender designs, and the '52 Industry Standard reflects that philosophy with a build that stands on its own. This 2013 example, finished in Blonde, blends vintage-inspired styling with DeTemple's own approach to materials, construction, and hardware selection. Every aspect of the guitar feels purposeful, from its lightweight ash body to the carefully chosen components that contribute to its lively, responsive character. Produced in limited numbers by one of the boutique world's most admired builders, the Industry Standard has earned a place among modern instruments that offer a distinctive alternative to factory reissues. This example is an excellent representation of DeTemple's work, balancing classic aesthetics with forward thinking construction.
Includes brown Fender hard shell case.
