The B String Bender Advantage
This highly-customized Telecaster features Fender's own B string bending mechanism – the secret weapon that encourages pedal steel-like chords and lead lines by raising the B string’s pitch up to a whole step.
Authentic John Osborne Specifications
Closely modeled after his personal guitar; this instrument delivers professional-grade performance with classic Fender craftsmanship.
