Fender Jeff Beck Stratocaster Olympic White, 2006

On January 16, 2019 /

The Fender Jeff Beck Stratocaster, here as an Olympic White 2006 custom shop build, recognizes Beck’s needs for sonic versatility and tuning stability. Unusually for top flight rock players, Jeff Beck plays fingerstyle, without picks, and his heavy use of the trem bridge is part of his unmistakable sound. In the mid 1960’s, Jeff Beck was one of three top English players closely associated with the Telecaster – Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page were the other two.

Fender American Telecaster Left Handed Sunburst, 2002

On December 18, 2018 /

This Fender American Telecaster Left Handed in Sunburst finish, built in 2002 at the Fender Corona plant, is in overall good condition. There is a little scuffing on the tail edge of the back finish, and light oxidization on the bridge plate, with light fret and play wear. It plays well, and as the frets on this series are larger than vintage style, there is plenty of room for any future maintenance.

Fender American Standard Strat Left Handed Metallic Red, 2007

On December 17, 2018 /

The Fender American Standard Left Handed was built from 1987 to 2017, offering a blend of vintage and modern ideas – bent steel saddles and a fingerboard extension with larger frets. In general, the guitar showed improved build quality and hardware. The next step up from this model added locking tuners, a great idea for most guitars, and modern Fender locking tuners would fit directly on this guitar (a left handed set of course).

Fender Telecaster Blonde Maple Neck, 1973

On December 13, 2018 /

The Fender Telecaster blonde is arguably one of the most significant musical instruments ever produced, and certainly the most successful. Produced without major changes for closing in on 70 years, the Telecaster and its original translucent blonde finish has been used for nearly every genre of music. The first production examples of what became the Telecaster and its Esquire version appeared in 1950. Since then, wood selections, pickup construction and hardware have evolved somewhat, but the basic design is unchanged.

Fender Duo Sonic II 24 Inch Scale Solidbody Electric White, 1966

On December 10, 2018 /

Appearing in 1956 as a student model, the Fender Duo Sonic was a step up from its stable mate, the single pickup MusicMaster. These were short-scale guitars, sometimes called “3/4 size”, in scale lengths of 22.5 or 24 inches. In 1964, the model was revised as the Duo Sonic II, with strong references to the new-ish Mustang, but without the trem bridge. The Fender Mustang won out in the end, and the Duo Sonic went out of production in 1968.

Fender American Standard Telecaster Sunburst, 2012

On December 10, 2018 /

The Fender American Standard Telecaster updates the venerable, ultra reliable Tele design with modern concepts – Miro Tilt, Locking Tuners with staggered posts, six saddle bridge and comfort contour. These updates, small in themselves, make for definite improvements. The Micro Tilt neck adjustment appeared in the very early 1970’s and was one of Leo Fender’s last contributions at Fender
