Product Description

The Fender Telecaster is regarded as the first commercially successful solid body electric 'Spanish' guitar. Designed by Leo Fender at a time when the words rock and roll were not even coined, the 'Telly' is the senior member of a family of instruments whose sounds and looks helped revolutionize the world of popular music. This book relates the story of Telecaster Guitars since 1950 - everything you ever wanted to know is explored through lots of color and black and white photos, charts and interviews.

Another book With Lotsa Neat Pictures3
First the disclaimer: I do not own a Telecaster nor do I even play guitar. I happen to think that a Telecaster is one of the most beautiful man made objects there is, so I got this book. I also bought SIX DECADES OF THE FENDER TELECASTER. This book was published in 1991. The SIX DECADES.. is much more recent. I enjoyed reading this one, too. However, if you can only get one, get the SIX DECADES. I do not regret having both of them. They have different pics. This book has the forwards by James Burton and Alvin Lee.

The know all, tell all book about Telecasters...4
If you're looking to gain knowledge and factual information about the greatest solid body electric guitar ever produced, this is the book you want. Leo Fender got it EXACTLY right with his first attempt when it comes to solid body electric guitars and this book gives you all of the nitty gritty you will need to find the right Telecaster for yourself or just add to your guitar knowledge. I highly recommend this book and I am a fifty year Telecaster player.

Great book about Fender Telecaster!5
This book covers the history and the variations in the models
of Leo Fender's first (and arguably best) electric guitar. The
Stratocaster may be more popular in some circles, but the Telecaster
has held its own since the beginning.

If you have a Telecaster you can check your serial number to identify
the year and some of the manufacture changes from year to year.

Every Tele owner needs a copy of a book like this.
