Many of these guitars fell victim to the unstable mix of thick paper, weak adhesives, polyester clear coats and time, eventually showing major chipping and flaking, driving players to refinish their guitars. Others we simply repainted to cover up the polarizing original finish. Once discontinued in late 1969, these guitars and basses seemed to vanish into the ether.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOver the following six decades, these unsung heroes of free spirit movement would pop up in vintage guitar shops and for sale online, eventually beginning to accrue a cult-like following. Call it nominative determinism or sheer luck, country music singer-songwriter and Telecaster evangelist Brad Paisley became enamored by these misfit late-‘60s guitars, ultimately becoming the modern-day face of any and all paisley-themed finishes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFlash forward to present day, and through a fortuitus twist of fate, while Brad was studying guitar building, he was gifted what looked to be lightly used sheets of Blue Paisley patterned Cling-Foil – straight from the ‘60s. Driven by his newfound obsession over this Blue Paisley Cling-Foil, Brad teamed up with close friends Zac Childs and Joe Glaser to not only refinish one of his road-tested 1967 Telecasters, but to meticulously recreate vintage-accurate Paisley Cling-Foil paper.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn partnership with Brad Paisley, the Fender Custom Shop is proud to introduce the Limited Edition 1967 “Lost Paisley” Telecaster. The swirling, pulsing and blinding carousel of blues, greens and silvers of the Blue Paisley Relic® finish brings a perfect balance of vintage charm to the unique alder, paulownia and spruce Telecaster body. Featuring a custom ‘60s Oval “C” shaped maple neck and round-laminated maple fingerboard, Seymour Duncan \"Lost Paisley\" Telecaster Pickups and a Glaser “G” Bender System, this guitar looks, sounds and feels like Brad’s #1 Tele.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOther premium features include 7.25\" (184.1 mm) radius, 21 narrow tall (6105) frets, Modern Tele® wiring, 3-way switch, ’67 Telecaster® bridge with Glaser Bender System, vintage-style tuners, bone nut, wing string tree, period-correct Fender ® strap and certificate of authenticity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLimited Edition Series\u003cbr\u003eEach Custom Shop Limited Edition instrument is only available for a short time, which makes it eminently collectible and adds to its investment value.
