Ships FAST anywhere in the U.S.A! Led by Joe Strummer, The Clash's punk, rockabilly, dub, and ska anthems captured the gritty sounds of London’s modern multicultural landscape like lightning in a bottle. Strummer was never a flashy guitarist (by his own admission), but he’s nevertheless a rock icon who showed off what a few simple Telecaster strums and some heartfelt lyrics can accomplish. The new Joe Strummer Road Worn Telecaster from Fender captures the attitude and character of the 1966 Telecaster Strummer trusted for most of his career. From tech specs like vintage-voiced pickups, a modified 6-saddle Tele bridge, and an eclectic Road Worn finish, this guitar grabs the spirit of Strummer's beloved workhorse and doesn't let go. Death or glory? This guitar chose glory! When pulling double-duty on vocals and rhythm guitar like Joe Strummer does, a comfortable guitar that does the job simply and does it right is indispensable. The Joe Strummer Road Worn Telecaster aims for just that with its classic Fender design. A sturdy but comfortable alder body delivers rich balanced tone while the maple neck sports a modern-leaning ‘60s-style “C” profile for easy access to barre, power chords, and everything in between. The guitar also features vintage-style hardware complete with a worn nickel finish and a unique neckplate engraved with Joe Strummer’s silhouette, so The Clash's leader is with you everywhere you go. This Telecaster delivers plenty of versatile Telecaster tone with its two custom-voiced single-coil pickups carefully dialed-in to help nail the various tones of Joe Strummer. From warm, chirpy reggae strums to hefty punk power chords, these pickups are your quick ticket to sounding like the Clash. But while Strummer was known as . . . a strummer, these pickups still boast enough classic Telecaster power for bristling lead guitar work if you’re so inclined. According to legend, Strummer’s trusty sunburst Telecaster morphed into a roughshod multi-hued axe after The Clash's manager talked Joe into refinishing his guitar at an autobody shop. Joe’s Telecaster got a coat of grey primer with a black finish that covered parts of the pickguard, and that’s just what you’ll find here with swirls of sunburst, black, and grey primer. This Telecaster recreates that from top to bottom. Plus, it features a premium nitrocellulose lacquer finish which allows the wood to breathe and the tone to bloom. Because the finish is worn-in in all the right places, the whole instrument has a played-in feel, just as if it'd faced the front-line action of Spanish Bombs and Guns of Brixton night after night.
