The Fender Buck Owens Telecaster electric guitar brings you a piece of country music history. Modeled after Buck Owens' iconic guitar, this Telecaster lets you channel the legendary Bakersfield sound. With premium tonewoods and vintage-inspired pickups, this Tele produces the crisp, twangy tone Buck was known for. The maple neck's comfortable C profile and 21 vintage frets make playing a breeze.

Iconic Style and Sound

With its flashy red, silver and blue sparkle finish, this Telecaster embodies Buck's charismatic style. The alder body and maple neck provide a balanced tone with punchy mids and articulate highs, ideal for country pickin'. The dual single-coil pickups deliver the crisp, biting tone that defined the Bakersfield sound. One pickup gives you bell-like neck tones while the bridge pickup growls with attitude. Together, they capture Buck's signature sound.

Premium Playability

The maple neck's comfortable C profile and 21 vintage frets make playing a breeze. You'll glide up and down the fingerboard, firing off blazing Tele licks and solos with ease. The synthetic bone nut and vintage tuners provide accurate intonation and tuning stability. Combined with the alder body, this neck gives the Buck Owens Telecaster a lightweight, resonant feel that resonates with your playing.

Versatile Tonal Options

Shape your tone with the three-position blade switch and dual master volume and tone controls. Select the bridge pickup for crisp, articulate highs or the neck pickup for warmer tones. The middle position blends both pickups for a balanced, full-range sound with chimey highs and tight lows. Dial in just the right amount of brightness and warmth with the tone controls. Whether you want to capture Buck's tone or forge your own modern country sound, this Tele gives you versatile tonal options.

Signature Style and Appointments

As a tribute to the King of the Bakersfield Sound, this Tele features Owens' signature on the headstock and a custom engraved neck plate. The sparkling red, silver and blue finish is inspired by his flashy Nudie suits, reflecting his charismatic style. With premium features and the unmistakable Telecaster shape, the Fender Buck Owens Telecaster pays fitting homage to a country legend.
