Straight from our friends out west comes this Fender Custom Shop ‘50s Telecaster Custom Journeyman in a lived-in but undeniably fresh Faded Aged Teal Green Metallic finish. The Journeyman Relic finish job on this piece gives it an overall well-loved and lived-in feeling that matches with modern appointments and playability.

This Fender Custom Shop ‘50s Telecaster Custom Journeyman begins with a two-piece ash body, sorted for weight. Its ‘52 Tele body style feels and handles as you’ve always known with that rich Journeyman Relic Teal Green Metallic finish simulating years in the case, on the road, under stage lights, the whole nine yards. As with many FCS finishes, minor dings and dents are designed into this finish to really bring that road-worn feel to life. What’s more, this Tele features top and bottom body binding that tie the whole package together, visually.

Assembled with a plain grain maple neck shaped in a ’60 Style Oval “C” profile, this Tele has a solid grip in the left hand. This neck contrasts the finish of the body by bearing an unfinished Relic treatment, appearing rubbed down and stripped of a finish job. The neck is matched with a 9mm AAA rosewood fingerboard with twenty-one frets with classic Medium Jumbo (6150) sized wire. Micarta White .250 face dots line the board. Feeling out the neck from lower to higher sections, the neck measures .790” at the first fret and .930” at the twelfth.

Sonically, this Tele comes to life with a setup that is both tonally and visually unique. A hand wound 55/56 single-coil Tele pickup in the neck position matches with a hand wound Crushed Blackguard Tele pickup in the bridge for a classic sound. These pickups produce the great twang and snap the Telecaster is known for, but something that’s sure to catch some eyes is this FCS’s reverse-angle bridge pickup route and reverse control plate assembly. In addition, this Tele comes equipped with a number of fine hardware features like a 1.625” bone nut, a ‘50s truss rod and Vintage Fender tuning keys. Included with this Telecaster is a Fender Custom Shop Tweed case.

Encapsulating so much of what makes the Telecaster great with some real off-the-wall adjustments, this Fender Custom Shop Tele truly makes you look twice.

Stable, attractive, and easy to turn into a table with your choice of top
Size: side table leg
The X-shape of the table legs - constructed with solid metal flanges, T-joints, X-joints and 1-inch diameter pipes - provides a strong and sturdy base for a wood top. The legs have adjustable feet pads to prevent scratches and ensure stability. Assembly of the legs is relatively simple (the instructions are clear) but you will need your own tools to attach a top. The industrial design is especially well suited to rec room or finished basement use. I am adding a 28" diameter raw edge slab of wood from a recently felled tree as the top and it is very attractive. (Photo unavailable because after I made certain it would work I sent the slab out for drying and finishing.) If you want a custom table and have a particular piece of wood you want to use, these legs are an excellent choice.

Very nice kit: Beware it is NOT heavy duty plumbing pipe though!
Size: side table leg
I want to give this kit a high rating, but I need to address the "truth in advertising" bit since there may be an important disconnect between what you think you are getting and what actually comes in the box. Black plumbing used for shelving or table legs is part of an important niche in interior design. I like the industrial loft look myself and have a variety of glass, steel, and masonry elements in my home. This kit fits that look and provides plenty of "strength" for most domestic uses, like shelves or coffee tables. But they are NOT "industrial pipe" or "maximum durability pipe." Note the phrase "cast iron finish feet," which together with the other claims might lead you to think these are cast plumbing fittings. They are NOT! The feet and flanges feel like electrical conduit fittings, and the pipe sections are likely aluminum. They might be electrical or they might be multi-use, lightweight pipe. While all this might lead you to think that you're getting a truly retro, heavy-duty pipe kit made of black plumbing pipe, you are not. But, does it matter? Depends. I find the lighter pipe's smooth finish a nice "tone-down" from the rough plumbing look. All together, this kit provides plenty of strength for most furniture and the rustic pipe look, but with a nicer, lighter finish. To me that is a plus--this is a very nice kit and costs less that if you'd pieced it together from real plumbing parts (I priced it out to compare), and looks retro but cleaner. I knew what to expect because while I got this kit free on Vine, I had purchased a nearly identical kit from another seller last year. So, I'm giving it 5 stars for what it actually is and for the price, JUST BE AWARE THE NARRATIVE IS MISLEADING. Which is unfortunate because just like some people might want the heavier pipe, I'm betting more would be attracted to the look with a cleaner, lighter feel.

Lovely and sturdy for what I needed!
Size: 3 Set 4-Tier, Planks Not Included, Size: 3 Set 4-Tier, Planks Not Included
We LOVE these shelving brackets! We were moving our books from our office space to turn that room into a nursery and I needed something that would be sturdy and off the floor since my books were moving to our living room. These are extremely sturdy, and also go with our curtain rods and other furniture that has this industrial style. The instructions for assembly are simple and easy to follow, I would just ensure you have an extra set of hands (this isn’t a one person job) we ordered the 3 pack, but ended up only needing the two for the space on the wall and they still hold the weight well. Also this is a work in progress so please disregard that I don’t have the other two shelves here😂 Definitely a high quality and great looking alternative to some other brackets out there!

Takes time to install right.
Size: 3 Pcs 5 Tier, Not included planks, Size: 3 Pcs 5 Tier, Not included planks
Saw a few complaints about this product in the reviews before ordering but gave it a shot anyways. Took a little longer than I would have liked to install, but was only time consuming, not difficult. I made sure at least 2 screws on each base plate were into studs so it's more than sturdy. Hung each of the 3 brackets by 1 screw, marked the rest of the holes, took it back off the wall, installed anchors where needed, and finally screwed each back up fully. And for the people saying that the threads don't line up once snug, try switching out a fitting or pipe so it's a different thread mesh. If that doesn't work, just over tighten the fitting. Furthest one I pushed was nearly 3/4 of a turn past finger tight. I don't have a single loose connection on the whole shelf. My wife can't wait for us to go to lowes tomorrow for the wooden shelves to finish off the bookshelf this will be for her.
