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 we’re 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.

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.
