The Fender Custom Shop hand selects its woods, ensuring you get the best possible sound. For the Caballo Tono Ligero Relic, they opted for ash with the 2-piece semi-hollow body, a tonewood known for its crisp character and bolstered by the ash’s hearty midrange and luscious bass. The 1-piece, AAA flame maple neck and fingerboard are imparted with powerful projection and reflective voicing, balancing crisp highs and warm lows with excellent note-separation. Taken together, these tonewoods work wonderfully alongside the resonance of the semi-hollow construction, producing glorious sustain throughout its well-articulated registers.

Taking a piece out of Fender’s history, the 1-piece, AAA flame maple neck pairs light weight with structural resilience. The result delivers comfortable access and low-maintenance, thanks to its natural climate adaptability. The 10/56-style "V" profile will have thumb-over players feeling right at home, scaling all 21 narrow-tall frets of the fingerboard’s 9.5-inch radius. Vintage-style hardware includes a disc string tree and a bone nut, accompanied by Sperzel Deluxe tuners that ensure you'll stay in tune. Fun fact: this tone horse’s "ligero" designation is special to its semi-hollowbody construction, so you won’t find it on its solidbody sibling.
