1951 Fender Nocaster
The Telecaster is not only the first production solidbody electric guitar, it is also the classic one.
Created by Leo Fender in 1950, its design has seldom changed over the last 65 years.
Truth is, it can’t really be bettered: in its simplicity lies its success.
The list of great musicians who have played a Tele is literally endless:
Muddy Waters, Albert Collins, Steve Cropper, Danny Gatton, PJ Harvey, Frank Black, James Burton…
This original instrument is a fantastic example of the most desirable version of the Blackguard:
The "Nocaster".
In great original condition, this iconic guitar comes complete with its rare thermometer case.
