Fender Road Worn Series

50’s Telecaster Blonde

The first Fender workhorse; the original road warrior guitar. Fender’s long road begins with the Telecaster®, a guitar that amazingly looked even cooler and handled even better the more players heaped wear-and-tear on it - great when brand-new but positively phenomenal with a few thousand miles on it. Fender's new maple-fretboard Road Worn® ’50s Telecaster delivers that aged look and feel - built to look, sound and feel like it has survived half a century, designed with 1950s specs, including a nitrocellulose-lacquer finish, and supercharged with Tex-Mex™ pickups and 6105 frets.
