The Holy Grail of Telecasters - an Original 1954 Blackguard Fender Tele

Recorded at PREMIER GUITARS in Sydney Info: Here we discuss one of our favourite guitars in the shop - an all original 1954 Fender Blackguard Telecaster. This is an early, all original example of one of the most significant instruments in the history of the electric guitar. At risk of stating the obvious, this is a special instrument. Born out of the mind of Leo Fender and his guitar playing friends in the country and jazz music scene out in California. The Telecaster (originally named the Broadcaster) was designed to be the most practical, functional and user-friendly guitar that it could be. They got this guitar right. So right, that the design has barely changed since the first Broadcasters rolled out of the little Fullerton workshop in 1950. This instrument, made only a short few years after the guitars inception, is one of the nicest examples you are likely to find. All original, from the frets, finish, pickups and electronics, down to the original wiring configuration, with the forward most position acting as a high pass “bass” setting, with the middle position being the neck, and rearward position engaging the bridge pickup. Many of these early examples have had the wiring reconfigured to the modern ‘neck/both pickups/bridge’ type arrangement. This is a testament to how well this guitar has been preserved. That is not to say this guitar hasn’t been played. The patina, light coloration on the back of the neck, and observable (albeit light) fret wear in the ‘cowboy zone’ shows this guitar has been truly loved and played by someone who knew how to take care of such a fine instrument.
