Fender Limited Edition Brent Mason Telecaster, touche en érable, noir

With recording credits stretching across five decades, Brent Mason is one of the most prolific session guitarists of all time, featured on well over 1,000 albums, including hits by Alan Jackson, Brooks & Dunn, George Jones, Dolly Parton, Blake Shelton, Shania Twain and many more. He's also been inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame, won a Grammy, earned twelve Guitarist of the Year awards from the Academy of Country Music, is a two-time winner of the CMA® Award Musician of the Year Award and was named one of the top ten session guitarists of all time by Guitar World magazine.

The Stories Collection Brent Mason Telecaster recreates the prized Tele he discovered in a Nashville guitar shop in the early eighties: a '67 model which Brent outfitted with new pickups and controls, as well as a bender system - transforming it into a versatile all-in-one session guitar.

Boasting a Glaser Bender system, Seymour Duncan mini-hum in the neck position, Hot Stack in the middle and Vintage Stack in the bridge, locking tuners and Dunlop locking strap buttons - the Brent Mason Telecaster provides the special features, smooth playability and diverse range of tones to nail Brent's platinum Nashville session sound.

This limited version of Brent's number one is offered in a beautiful gloss black finish.

Includes deluxe hardshell case.
