Fender Telecaster American Professional II Telecaster

The Fender Telecaster, originally introduced as the Broadcaster in 1950, holds the distinction of being the world’s first commercially produced solid-body electric guitar. Designed by Leo Fender, its simple yet effective construction, featuring a single-cutaway ash body, two single-coil pickups, and a bolt-on maple neck, revolutionized popular music. Its bright, twangy tone and rugged reliability quickly made it a favorite among country, blues, and rock and roll musicians, cementing its place as an enduring icon of guitar design.
