BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN esquire mistery

There are some, similar to those who change political affiliation late in life, who for some reason switch. Jeff Beck...Master of the Tele...Master of the Strat...but, they are rare. Robbie Robertson, who also had an affinity for both guitars, gave me a beautiful Strat I play on occasion in the studio..However, Bruce Springsteen Tele?when that big Rock N Roll clock strikes twelve I will be buried with my Tele on! So,..When you do your article on the Telecaster please by all means give me a shout. Until then, I wish you good luck on your article on brucespringsteentele.com?the Fender Stratocaster. A guitar that has contributed greatly to Rock and Roll, a fine and wonderful instrument...It's just not a Tele. From all appearances, the neck is a ’57-‘58 Esquire and the Bruce Springsteen Tele sale?body is from a Telecaster (circa ’60-’63). Little else has been changed to the workhorse guitar (Bruce would add Joe Barden dual-rail single-coil-sized humbuckers in other Telecasters), although in the mid-’80s noted New York luthier Roger Sadowsky did some ’waterproofing’ to the pickups to guard against Springsteen’s profuse sweating during shows.
