The Fender Joe Strummer Road Worn Telecaster RW Black is an authentic replica of the punk pioneer's original '66 Tele from England.
An engraved neck plate joins the comfortable maple neck and alder body with heavily aged Road Worn finish.
Classically built Tele in "Road Worn" finish.
When building the Joe Strummer Road Worn Tele, Fender pays special attention to the authentic look and feel of a hard-played vintage guitar. The thin nitro finish not only presents the playing traces of Strummer's own Tele due to the strong ageing but also promises a particularly lively sound, which is characterized by the alder body and bolt-on maple neck. The pleasantly powerful "'60s C" profile also feels rich in the hand and lets fast riffs come out of the fingers with ease.
Two Fender Custom Joe Strummer single coils promise juicy punk rock sounds with razor-sharp attack.
Fender Joe Strummer Single Coils
For the pickup of the Strummer Road Worn Tele Fender chooses two Custom Joe Strummer Single Coil pickups. With their merciless bite and particularly aggressive tuning, the powerful single coils elicit the right overdrive and distortion sounds from the guitar amp for driving punk riffs and hot licks. A classic passive electrics with 3-way blade switch for pickup selection and general volume and tone controls also grants full control over the guitar sound.
Classic vintage-style tuners on the headstock of the Joe Strummer Tele guarantee accurate tuning with high stability.
Indestructible hardware equipment
Last but not least, Fender completes the Joe Strummer Road Worn Telecaster RW Black with reliable Hardware in a classic look. While the vintage-style Tele bridge with the strings routed through the body supports the crisp sound character of the Signature guitar, six individually adjustable tailpieces promise a particularly precise adjustment of intonation and string action. In addition, vintage-style tuners keep the Joe Strummer Road Worn Tele securely in tune.
