The Blackguards '51 & '53 Tele, & '53 Esquire | CME Vintage Demo | Shelby Pollard

Previously likened to a "plank" or "canoe paddle," the Blackguard Telecaster is now one of the most coveted guitars in history. Shelby explains why, taking us through the guitar's development, its importance as a forerunner of the electrified solid-body, its defining components, and everything else that makes our three Blackguards–the '51 Fender Telecaster, '53 Fender Esquire, and '53 Fender Telecaster–so remarkable, while a few of our friends play their favorite tunes, including some of the very ones that made the Blackguard famous.
