Fender 70th Anniversary Esquire Limited Edition
This is the limited edition Fender 70th Anniversary! The Esquire was the very first electric solidbody guitar offered by Fender in 1950, and it’s still a design that sounds fresh as ever in the modern age. With an elegant single-cutaway silhouette, adjustable 3-saddle bridge and a lone, repurposed lap-steel pickup in the bridge position – the Esquire laid the groundwork for all solidbody electric guitars to follow and foreshadowed its more famous sibling, the Telecaster.

This 70th Anniversary Esquire will feature a pine body just like the originals, but with a roasting treatment to give it improved resonance. More features include a chunky “U” maple neck, and a Tim Shaw-designed Esquire bridge pickup that was inspired by an original ’50 Esquire on display at the Songbirds Museum in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Each Esquire will have a commemorative neck plate and tweed case.
