£2,850.00Price

A classic Candy Apple Red '63 style beauty with Vintage Feel & Timeless Tone

The Eternal "Evelyn" CAR '63 T-Type is a stunning recreation of one of the most iconic early-'60s Telecasters, finished in a beautifully aged Candy Apple Red nitro, with a lightweight alder body and a dark rosewood veneer fingerboard.

This model is all about effortless playability and dynamic, open-sounding tone—featuring a medium C-profile neck with rounded fingerboard edges, jumbo frets for smooth bends, and our hand-wound "Timeless '63" pickups, delivering bright, chimey highs, warm mids, and clear, punchy lows.

With premium hardware upgrades, vintage-correct materials, and expert craftsmanship, Evelyn is a true tribute to the golden era of T-Types, perfect for players who demand both classic aesthetics and modern playability.

 

Lightweight Alder Body – Vintage-Accurate & Resonant

The two-piece, center-joined alder body was chosen for its lightweight feel and resonant tonal character.

  • Aged Candy Apple Red nitrocellulose lacquer for an authentic vintage aesthetic

  • Thin nitro finish allows the wood to breathe, enhancing sustain and resonance

  • Subtle wear marks, lacquer checking, and edge rolling, giving it a naturally broken-in look and feel

 

Silky-Smooth C-Shape Neck with Rounded Edges

The maple neck, topped with a rosewood veneer fingerboard, is designed for maximum comfort and effortless playability:

  • Medium C-profile, perfect for all playing styles

  • Expertly rolled fingerboard edges, enhancing the worn-in, played-for-decades feel

  • 7.25” radius, providing a true vintage-style playing experience

  • Jescar FW58118 jumbo frets, ensuring easy bending and smooth articulation

  • Hand-cut bone nut, optimizing resonance and sustain

The result? A neck that feels incredibly natural, with a perfect balance of vintage authenticity and modern ease of play.

 

Timeless '63 Pickups – The Classic Pre-CBS Tele Tone

The Eternal hand-wound "Timeless '63" pickups are designed to capture the crisp, clear, and dynamic sound of early-'60s Teles, offering:

  • Bridge Pickup:

    • Bright, chimey highs with a focused, punchy midrange

    • Tight, percussive attack, perfect for cutting through the mix
