We've teamed up with this award-winning guitarist to create his signature model, the limited-edition Brad Paisley Road Worn Telecaster. An eye-catching instrument with plenty of country mojo, this stage-tested Telecaster is ideal for adding some Nashville flair to your arsenal.

We talked to Brad on the NAMM floor about his signature Tele:


The Brad Paisley Telecaster is crafted from a paulownia core capped by a spruce top, providing a solid, lightweight foundation with acoustic-like resonance. The Paisley-approved pickup configuration includes a custom-wound '64 Tele bridge pickup and a Fender Custom Shop Twisted Tele(R) neck pickup for classic tone with just the right balance of warmth and twang. Playability is key to Paisley's fleet-fingered style and the "Enhanced V" neck profile is designed for comfort, filling the hand at the nut for easy chording while flattening out in the upper registers for soloing.

Brad Paisley on his custom Fender Road Worn Tele:


The modern 9.5" radius fingerboard and medium-jumbo frets make it easy to play fast and bend big. This Tele wears a silver sparkle Road Worn lacquer finish and aged hardware, inspired by many years on the touring trail. Elegant signature touches include a custom clear pickguard with black and silver paisleys and a cowboy hat insignia on the headstock. Simply put, this read more easy-playing music machine is a must for Tele lovers and belongs center-stage in any country collection.

I'm a weekend guitarist and have been for 40 years. Also a Brad Paisley fan since I grew up and still live in WV. I have a few other tele's and like them all, but had to have this one when I first heard it was being released. I bought it from zZounds and wanted to be on of the first to have one. I'm glad I did. Lightweight, comfortable to play...chunky neck, and the pickups sound great. Not too hot...but have a nice airy tone to them. I either play through a smaller fender tube amp or a Vox and works well with either one. I would recommend this guitar....reasonably priced and overall a great instrument. Its quickly becoming my go to guitar.

Musical Background:

Play in weekend bands about every weekend....Play guitar, bass, and other string instruments

Musical Style:

rock, country, blues. Contemporary Christian.
