Fender Telecaster – Upgraded with Duesenberg Multibender | Pedal Steel Tones with Classic Tele Feel

This isn’t just another Telecaster — it’s a carefully upgraded instrument that blends classic Fender tone with the expressive possibilities of a pedal steel guitar.

At first glance, you’ll see the familiar lines: a clean white finish, traditional Tele pickups, and that unmistakable silhouette. But look a little closer, and you’ll spot the real star of the show — a Duesenberg Multibender, professionally installed and fully dialed in. This clever system gives you the ability to bend individual strings in real time, right from the bridge, unlocking tones and phrasing you simply can’t get from a standard guitar.

It’s still a Tele through and through — crisp, articulate, and resonant — but with a whole new layer of musicality.

The Guitar:
This is a Fender Telecaster built with the tried-and-true formula: an alder body, maple neck, and a smooth maple fretboard. The single-coil pickups deliver that bright, cutting tone that Tele players love — perfect for country, blues, indie, and beyond.

The neck feels fast and familiar, with low action and a comfortable profile. Frets are in great shape, and the guitar plays clean up and down the neck. It’s seen some honest playtime, but only shows light cosmetic wear — a few minor marks here and there, nothing that gets in the way of tone or feel.

The Duesenberg Multibender:
This upgrade is where things really get interesting. The Multibender is a mechanical bridge system that lets you bend individual strings using levers operated by the palm of your picking hand — think pedal steel bends without the bulky rig.

Currently set up with two levers (most commonly bending the B string up a whole step and the G string up a half step), the Multibender is fully adjustable. You can reassign the levers to different strings, or change the pitch interval they bend to — it’s a flexible system, and it’s built like a tank.

Best of all, it’s intuitive. The levers are low-profile and smooth, allowing for expressive bends, swells, and pedal steel-style licks without interrupting your picking. It opens up a whole new vocabulary of phrasing — perfect for alt-country, Americana, ambient textures, or just adding some new flavor to your playing.

Why This Guitar Stands Out:
You don’t need a rack of pedals or a pedal steel setup to get beautifully expressive bends — just this guitar. It gives you a completely new way to interact with your instrument, while still feeling like a classic Telecaster.

If you’re a creative player who loves chasing new sounds but doesn’t want to give up the feel and simplicity of a traditional electric guitar, this might be the perfect fit. It’s a real player’s piece — unique, inspiring, and fun as hell to play.
