Fender Limited Edition Wilko Johnson Telecaster (Black) Overview

Fender proudly announces the release of the Fender Wilko Johnson Telecaster guitar, which is sold exclusively throughout Europe. With his electrifying proto-punk Telecaster chops, angular onstage swagger and pre-Lydon thousand-yard stare, Wilko Johnson is a venerable, influential and unmistakable U.K. guitar hero. With pub rock institution Dr. Feelgood, Johnson was an original '70s-era architect of the bridge from no-nonsense Brit R&B to snarling high-energy punk. His percussively choppy fingerstyle work on his early-'60s Telecaster furiously fused rhythm and lead parts, inspiring a new generation of iconoclastic U.K. punk, new wave and post-punk guitarists. Fender's Wilko Johnson Telecaster now puts his distinctive-looking instrument in your hands, with features including a Black finish and single-ply red pickguard, maple neck with comfortable GÇ£CGÇ¥-shaped profile, and dual vintage-style single-coil pickups. Other features include a 7.25GÇ¥-radius rosewood fingerboard with 21 vintage-style frets, three-way pickup switching, vintage-style strings-through-body bridge with three chrome-barrel saddles, and vintage-style tuners. Special in-case extras include two Wilko Johnson photos and facsimiles of the notebook pages on which Johnson penned Dr. Feelgood hits GÇ£She Does it Right,GÇ¥ GÇ£Back in the NightGÇ¥ and GÇ£Roxette.GÇ¥ GÇ£I have been working closely with Fender on the details of my signature Tele,GÇ¥ said Johnson. GÇ£It's great to know people will be able to play an instrument just like the one that has served me so well throughout my career.GÇ¥ The final batch of these limited edition guitars is due to arrive September 2014- pre order to reserve yours now!
