Happy Birthday To...

...the electric guitar known as the Fender Telecaster, now celebrating its 60th year.

I had one back in the 80's that I bought in Norfolk; an ash-bodied instrument with a translucent white paint job that was reminiscent of a fat woman with varicose veins. I sold it a few years later in Spain. Great guitar for a clean sound, it wasn't very cooperative at giving a dirty or distorted sound, at least until I attached a fuzzbox to it.
