Overview

Join the celebration to honor the guitar that changed popular music forever.

The Flame Top Telecaster is an American
Standard model that pairs an elegant Antique
Burst lacquer finish with a striking AAA flame
maple top, gold hardware and pearl tuner
buttons.

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.
