The Fender® Custom Shop's popular La Cabronita Especial Telecaster® models now join the family in the form of the Cabronita Telecaster-a Telecaster® with "a lot more attitude"—which boasts a slab body and TV Jones® Filter'Tron™ pickups.
On its 1951 introduction, the Telecaster® was a revolutionary instrument that would usher in whole new eras of musical innovation and excitement. Sixty years later, in 2011, it is an archetypal electric guitar with a long and storied history. The rich history of Fender® guitars begins with the Telecaster®, and Fender® is celebrating its 60th anniversary all year with 12 very special "Tele-bration" models that stay inside the Telecaster®'s famously elegant lines while offering the finest and most unusual takes on the instrument's past, present and future.
