Every so often I like to throwback to a very special #ThinlineThursday evening I once spent, about 3.5 years ago, with #Fender Historian and author, @terry_foster and this uber rare #LavenderLilac 1970 #Thinline #Telecaster. . How do I know this finish is called "Lavender Lilac"? Well, swipe to pic 2 and you will see that Terry has, in his collection, long-time Fender designer (and the guy who played the steel guitar swoop at the beginning of the Looney Tunes cartoons), Freddie Tavares' ORIGINAL NOTES from a 1969 (?) meeting on the new custom colour Thinline models! You can see Freddie listed the different colours out in his own hand: "New colors for Telecaster hollow bodies: Jet Black, Canary Yellow, Salmon, Lavender Lilac, Hot Pink, Kelly Green". . You always see the most incredible stuff in Terry Foster's collection! 😀 . . #freddietavares #fenderthegoldenage #terryfoster #fendertelecaster #telecasterthinline #teletuesday #guitar #guitars #guitarra #chitarra #guitarre #electricguitar #vintageguitars #fenderguitars #vintagefender #tone #guitargear #guitarsofinstagram #geartalk #guitargear #vintagegear #guitarsdaily #fendersofinstagram #guitarphotography (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYZl57kJ34f/?utm_medium=tumblr
