The Relic Done Right With Vintage Feel And Zero Compromise

What separates killer T style guitars from the mediocre ones? The right ash resonance, the right neck feel, and a relic treatment that opens up the tone instead of just looking beat up. This Whitfill hits all three in a big way.

Resonant Ash Body And Aged Nitro Finish

The lightweight swamp ash body at 7.1 lbs hits that sweet spot. Light enough that you forget you are wearing it after three hours, solid enough to sing and sustain for days.

The nitrocellulose finish is not just cosmetically aged. That opened up nitro lets the wood breathe and resonate in a way thick poly simply cannot. The double binding adds class far beyond a standard T style, while the tasteful light relic work, with subtle checking and naturally worn edges, makes it feel like your favorite guitar from the first chord.

The Goldilocks Neck Feel

The heavy C neck profile lives in that Goldilocks zone. Substantial enough to make you feel connected to every note, comfortable enough to play all night without fatigue.

The 9.5 inch radius rosewood fingerboard is modern enough for buttery bends and low action, yet traditional enough to feel familiar under your fingers. Fretwork is spotless: level crowns, smooth ends, no sharp edges, no dead spots, just a clean, singing neck.

Pure T Style Tone From Twang To Warmth

The tone is classic T style magic. The bridge pickup cuts with crystalline highs and just enough snarl to sit on top of the mix without getting ice picky.

Flip to the neck and you get a surprisingly fat, warm voice that is perfect for buttery leads and jazz chords. The middle position, often ignored but secretly the hero, slots into any mix without fighting for space. These pickups track every detail of your right hand. Dig in and they bark, back off your volume and they clean up with glassy articulation. They love pedals but sound just as inspiring straight into a good amp.

Boutique Craftsmanship At A Working Players Price

Whitfill builds for players who actually gig and record, not for glass cases. The hand selected swamp ash, meticulous fretwork, and properly cut bone nut give you the kind of reliability you usually expect from high end custom shop instruments.

You are getting craftsmanship that stands shoulder to shoulder with Fender Custom Shop T styles in the 4,500 to 6,000 dollar range, while keeping an extra chunk of change in your pocket for amps, pedals, and more guitars. Real talk, it feels and sounds like a lifer.

Dialed In, Inspected, And Ready To Ship

The Lowdown

We get it. Buying a guitar you haven’t played is a big decision. You need to know it’s going to feel right, sound right, and inspire you the second you open the case. We put together the questions we’d be asking if we were in your shoes—the real-world stuff that specs alone can’t answer. If there’s anything else you’re wondering about, just give us a call.

Real talk, Fender Custom Shop relic T style guitars are usually living in the 4,500 to 6,000 dollar range. This Whitfill uses the same recipe of lightweight swamp ash, nitro finish, and vintage voiced pickups, with hand done fretwork and a proper bone nut. You get that boutique feel and tone without paying custom shop money, so more of your budget can go into amps, pedals, or your next road trip.
On this Whitfill, Light Relic is all about feel and resonance, not fake abuse. The nitro has been carefully aged so it is thinner and more open, which lets the swamp ash body breathe and ring. The wear is tasteful and subtle, with broken in edges and a non sticky neck, so it feels like a well loved favorite from the first set instead of a brand new gloss stick.
Honestly, both. The resonant body and touch sensitive pickups make it a killer studio tool that sits in a mix without much EQ, while the solid hardware, stable neck, and comfortable weight make it an easy all night stage guitar. If you need one T style that can live in the studio and then go straight to the gig, this one fits that role perfectly.
This is for players who already know what they like in a T style and are ready for a lifer level instrument. If you are gigging regularly, recording, or just want a no compromise T that will not hold you back, this hits that sweet spot. If you are still figuring out basics and stretching your very first big budget, reach out and we can help you find something that makes more sense for where you are right now.
Of course. Every guitar gets our full Player-Perfect™ setup, but tell us your preferred string gauge and action at checkout, and we’ll dial it in exactly to your spec before it leaves the shop.
This guitar is covered by our 72-Hour Love-It Guarantee. If you’re not completely inspired by it, just let us know. We’ll make it right.
If you order before 3 PM CST on a weekday, it ships the same day. We’ll get it into your hands fast with free, insured 2-3 day shipping.
