Fender Telecaster Joe Strummer

Description

As front man and main songwriter of legendary punk band, The Clash, Joe Strummer created a fiery, passion-filled brand of up-tempo punk-rock that catapulted the band into rock and roll history. Strummer's rebellious musical sensibilities injected the bands songs with the lightning-in-a-bottle political urgency of the era.

To capture the vibe of Joe's well-worn '66 model, the Joe Strummer Telecaster® features a Road Worn® lacquer-finished Alder body, a mid-'60s "C"-shape maple neck with 7.25" radius Rosewood fingerboard and a set of custom-voiced Joe Strummer Telecaster® pickups. Other features include a vintage-style 6-saddle Telecaster® bridge, era-correct 3-ply parchment pickguard, vintage-style tuning machines and a custom neck plate, all featuring Fender's Road Worn® finish to complete the look.
