Fender G.E. Smith Telecaster Description:
As a child during the early 1960s, George Edward "G.E." Smith got a Telecaster guitar for his birthday one year, and never looked back. Through his six hit-making years with Hall & Oates, his decade-long run as Saturday Night Live bandleader and his touring stints with Bob Dylan, Smith is widely hailed as a modern master of the Telecaster.
We're honored to present his new signature Tele® , a special guitar that combines a '40s-era Fender lap steel with a '50s-era Telecaster. Features include a large U-shaped maple neck, lap steel "oval and diamond" fingerboard inlays, custom cutoff vintage-style bridge plate and body-mounted bridge pickup.
G.E. Smith is a guitarist's guitarist, from his many gigs (Bob Dylan,David Bowie, Hall & Oates, and as Saturday Night Live's bandleader)to his status as a collector and purveyor of fine instruments. We areproud to collaborate with G.E. on his signature Tele guitar, which wasinspired by old Fender lap steels and features a large neck shape,custom inlays and the bridge pickup mounted directly to the body,available in Dakota Red (854) and Honey Blonde (867).
