The Fender Telecaster: a brief history
This is it: the original guitar that started Fender's march into contemporary music history. First named the Broadcaster, it appeared in the early 1950s. The ingeniously simple design, the bolt-on neck, and the slab body all contribute to the guitar's trademark tones and player-friendly feel. From Nashville twang to blistering rock tones, the Telecaster sound has made its presence felt in nearly every musical genre. The diverse list of Telecaster players — including Muddy Waters, Keith Richards, James Burton, Bruce Springsteen, Joe Strummer, and John 5 — attests to the guitar's universal appeal.
