Fender 50s Telecaster Bigsby

Fender 50s Telecaster Bigsby

Pomona Avenue, California, 1950: the genesis of the modern electric solid-body guitar is artfully captured in this timeless collectible. Now made at Fender's state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico, the new Classic Series '50s Telecaster features an ash body, C-shaped maple neck, and vintage Tele pickups Singing cowboys were electrifying country & western music in the heart of the great South - southern California, that is! And the 1950 Telecaster was at the heart of it all. But it soon grew beyond its country roots to lend its signature tone to practically every genre of popular music. From its unique finish and knurled chrome knobs to its single-ply white pickguard, the '50s Telecaster is distinctive in both style and sound. This '50s Telecaster with a Bigsby tailpiece brings some vibrato to the table. Start off with an ash body and one-piece maple neck then add a highly sought-after Bigsby "F" vibrato tailpiece and you have a very special guitar! Other features include vintage-style Telecaster pickups, master volume and master tone controls, and a three-position selector switch
