Fender John Osborne Telecaster- Road Worn Olympic White

Catch John Osborne lighting up the stage with his Grammy-winning band, the Brothers Osborne, and you’ll find him slinging a well-loved mongrel of a Tele as his go-to guitar. The Fender John Osborne Telecaster pays tribute to that iconic axe, right down to the custom pickguard and battle-scarred Olympic White nitro lacquer coat. This alder-bodied Tele’s tone draws from a set of custom-voiced pickups, replicating the biting sound of John’s own 6-string with cutting clarity, a tight low-end focus, and ideal string-to-string balance. Flip the guitar around to be greeted by the Fender John Osborne Tele’s star feature — a rock-solid B-bender system that allows you to achieve full-step pedal steel-style swells simply by pulling down on your strap. You also get a top-shelf set of Fender hardware to ensure arena-ready reliability, including an ashtray bridge with compensated brass saddles and late-1960s-accurate F-stamped tuning machines. A Road Worn, oil-finished 1968 C-shaped maple neck completes the package with a slick feel on your fingers, sporting a vintage-accurate maple cap, an old-school 7.25-inch radius, and a set of jumbo-sized frets for effortless bends.
