This Guitar:

Weight: 7 lbs 6.5 oz

Serial Number: MX25012459

Country music legend Buck Owens — pioneer of the raw, electrified “Bakersfield Sound” — forever transformed country music with his signature Telecaster® twang. Now you can channel the spirit of this country icon with the Buck Owens Telecaster, a flashy, hot-rodded Tele® bearing Buck's signature sparkle and shine. Based on Buck's own custom Tele played throughout his innovative career and into the Hee Haw years, everything about this guitar — from the vintage snap and sizzle of the custom single-coils to the gleam of the red, silver and blue sparkle finish —screams Bakersfield.

The Buck Owens Telecaster features an alder body finished in signature red, silver and blue sparkle with double white binding for the iconic look of Buck's custom Tele. The late '50s "C"-shaped maple neck features 7.25" radius maple fingerboard with 21 vintage frets, with a matching three-color sparkle finish headstock. Equipped with custom Buck Owens Alnico 3 and Alnico 2 single-coil Tele pickups, this guitar delivers the bright, cutting tone that defined Buck's Bakersfield country sound. Other features include lustrous gold vintage-style hardware, from the 3-saddle strings-through-body bridge to the knurled flat-top knobs and gleaming gold mirror pickguard.

Don't miss your chance to own this historic and collectible instrument celebrating Buck Owens' pioneering Tele twang.
