Despite the fact that legendary guitarist Robben Ford had never dreamed of owning a Tele, when he picked up and played a Blonde Tele in a music store in San Francisco he couldn’t leave the store without it. Described by Ford as a ‘Workhorse’, which he plays for 50% of the time, Ford’s 1960s Tele is a versatile instrument.

Fraser Guitar’s tribute to Robben Ford is our representation of the guitarist’s personal Telecaster, taking you back to the 60s. Features select Alder body, Blonde nitrocellulose lacquer finish and distinctive wear. Our duo of single-coil pickups, hand-wound to 60s vintage spec ensure this guitar retains the classic sound of the era. Other features include our Vintage "C" 62 Maple neck with 9.5" slab Rosewood fretboard, Vintage Jumbo frets and bone nut, 1-Ply aged White pickguard, vintage hardware and more.
