This new version of Tony Bacon's
Six Decades of the Fender Telecaster shows how the world's first commercially successful solidbody electric guitar still attracts musicians more than 60 years since its birth in California. Today, it is more popular than ever and for many guitarists has overtaken the Stratocaster as
the Fender to own and play. The Tele is the longest-lived solidbody electric, played by everyone fromMuddy Waters to Keith Richards, from Radiohead to Snow Patrol. Its shee r simplicity and versatility are vividly illustrated here through interviews with Jeff Beck, James Burton, Bill Kirchen, John 5, and more. The book is three great volumes in one: a compendium of luscious pictures of the most desirable Teles, a gripping story from the earliest days to thelatest exploits, and a detailed collector's guide to every Tele ever ma de. Packed with pictures of great players, collectable catalogs, period press ads, and cool memorabilia,
The Telecaster Guitar Book is the one Tele book that all guitar fans will want to add to their collection.
