Invention of The Fender Telecaster
The Fender Telecaster, an earlier electric guitar, changed guitar production and preference moving forward when it was invented in 1951. All electric guitars up to this point had a hollow body, whereas the Fender Telecaster had a solid body and a removable neck. The bridge on this guitar was also restructured, allowing for musicians to play more in tune. This guitar set the bar for quality in construction of the guitar, as well as performance. Collectors today still enjoy their 1951 Telecasters. -
