Overview
Admired for his inspiring playing ability and songwriting prowess, George Harrison reigns as one of the premier icons in music history. To honor Harrison's venerable career, we created the George Harrison Rosewood Telecaster, a limited edition commemoration that embodies George's elegantly restrained playing style and sound.
Based on the original Telecaster created for Harrison by Roger Rossmeisel, this guitar remains true to its heritage with a classic look and the unique tone only an all-rosewood guitar can produce. The body is chambered for reduced weight and increased resonance; other features include a rosewood neck with a laminated 9.5" radius rosewood fingerboard and a custom neck plate engraved with an Om symbol.
A classic in every way, this refined instrument was born from the era that defined rock n' roll. George Harrison's Legacy is one of innovation and creativity, and the rosewood Telecaster became one of his primary instruments of choice. Limited to 1000 instruments worldwide, the George Harrison Telecaster is an homage to a master and destined to become a treasured addition to any collection.

I have been wanting this guitar for 47 years, ever since I saw it in the movie "Let it Be" back in 1970. It's a beautiful all-rosewood guitar -- body, neck and headstock. The vintage 1964 pickups combined with the rosewood tonewood give it a great, warm sound. Case candy includes certificate of authenticity and ashtray bridge cover which ensures total compliance with the Turner-Green Telecaster Ashtray Bridge Cover Directive. Decal on headstock is over the finish, just like the original. Nice Fender hard case. I love this guitar!
Musical Background:
I have been playing guitar on and off for 47 years. Mostly jamming at home.
Musical Style:
Classic rock.
