List of Telecaster players

Telecaster players are musicians known for playing the Telecaster, an electric guitar designed by Leo Fender, founder of Fender Musical Instruments Corporation. Also included are musicians associated with the similar Broadcaster and the Esquire guitars.

Because of the great popularity of these models, musicians are listed here only if their use of this instrument was especially significant&mdash;that is, they are players with long careers who have a history of faithful Telecaster use, or the particular guitar they used was unique or of historical importance, or their use of the Telecaster contributed significantly to the popularization of the instrument.

Esquire players are here listed alongside players of the more famous Telecaster, since Fender regards it as part of the "family of Telecaster guitars". While the one-pickup Esquire has been marketed as a separate model from the two-pickup Telecaster (which was originally named the Broadcaster) since its reintroduction in 1951, the Esquire and Telecaster are so intimately linked in their development and history, and so similar in design and tonal characteristics, that they are considered variations of the same model.

A-E

 * Syd Barrett (1946–2006), guitarist/singer/songwriter of the band Pink Floyd; used a unique mirror-disk covered Esquire and a 1960s-era Custom Tele.
 * Phil Baugh (1936–1990), a hot country guitarist whose song "Country Guitar" with Verne Stovall, recorded on his Telecaster, was a hit in 1964 and earned him numerous awards. He worked as a popular session guitarist in Nashville from 1975 until his death in 1990.


 * Jeff Beck (1944–2023) Emerging in the mid 1960s with the Yardbirds, Beck proved that a ragged Fender Esquire could moan like a fuzzed-out violin. His lines in “Heart Full of Soul” and “Evil Hearted You” defined psychedelic guitar.
 * Ed Bickert (1932-2019) was a premier jazz player who started playing a Telecaster when his regular guitar was in the shop, and he used it for the rest of his career.
 * Frank Black (born 1965) of the Pixies is a long-time Telecaster player.
 * Mike Bloomfield (1943–1981) played a Telecaster on the first album by the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, considered a groundbreaking example of post-Chicago electric blues. He employed the same instrument on Bob Dylan's hit single "Like a Rolling Stone" and the album Highway 61 Revisited. Most famously, Bloomfield played his Telecaster on stage with Dylan at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival, at which Dylan "went electric" to much controversy among his fans.
 * Albert Collins (1932–1993) ("The Master of the Telecaster") created his original blues sound using minor open tunings and a capo placed high up on the neck. Fender offers an Albert Collins Signature Telecaster based on his '66 model, which features a humbucker in the neck position.

 * D. Boon (1958-1985) of the Minutemen (band) was a revolutionary guitarist in the hardcore/post-punk scene where the jangly tone of his Telecaster and his funky rhythm was paired with the thumping bass riffs of best friend Mike Watt to create an entirely new sound that couldn't be classified as punk, funk or hardcore. He would play with very high treble and essentially no middle or bass, cultivating a juxtaposition between his abrasive guitar tone and Watt's bass. D. Boon would play with such control and power over the guitar, dancing with it like a toy, playing it violently and effortlessly as if it were an air guitar.
 * Denny Dias of Steely Dan presaged the 1970s trend for dual-humbucker Teles by replacing both of the single coils in his guitar with humbuckers and installing a Stratocaster-style bridge.
 * Eric Clapton started his career on the Telecaster. It was from changing strings on the Telecaster that he got the nickname "Slowhand". He used it exclusively from 1963 to 1966.
