SOLD FENDER TELEBRATION LITE ROSEWOOD TELECASTER

Fender Tele-Bration 2011 60th Anniversary Limited Edition Guitars

The first Telecaster guitar rolled off the assembly line in 1951, and since then has been an indispensable tool for guitarists in all genres of music.  Country, rock and roll, punk, blues, funk, and every other creative genre all owe a debt to the sound of the “Tele”.  For 2011, the 60th Anniversary of the Telecaster, Fender is releasing 12 different USA-made Telecasters that span the spectrum of Telecaster styles over the years, from classic designs like the Rosewood Telecaster, made famous by George Harrison in the ’60s, to modern classics like the Cabronita Telecaster.  Some of these models were previously available only as Custom Shop models, so the appearance of a USA version is very exciting.  Around every month starting in March a new Telecaster will be released, and all of these will be available through The Music Zoo.  Follow the jump for the run down, month by month.

Fender Tele-Bration 2011 60th Anniversary Limited Edition Guitars

October – Lite Rosewood Telecaster, NaturalBased on the famous 1960s solid Rosewood Tele.  The body is a rosewood top and back with a core of dark stained spruce in the middle.  Get the look of the iconic Rosewood Telecaster without the big cost of a solid Rosewood body.  

Featuring a gorgeous Rosewood top and back over a Spruce core, this pre-owned Lite Telecaster has a gorgeous look and a unique tone. The Rosewood fingerboard is fretted with 22 medium jumbo frets for an easy playing feel. By sandwiching the dark-stained Spruce core between the Rosewood back and top this guitar not only looks great, it’s lighter than most Teles, making it a comfortable guitar you can keep strapped on for hours. The pair of ’62 Tele Custom Single-Coil Pickups provide that perfect amount of “twang” and snap in the tone and the classic string-through bridge design puts the finishing touches on a guitar that’s a real one-of-a-kind. This instrument is in overall excellent condition.
