The Squier 40th Anniversary Collection celebrates the 40-year journey of Fender's entry-level brand. With aged chrome hardware, an anodized aluminum pickguard, a vintage-tinted maple neck, an engraved anniversary neck plate, and a smooth satin finish, this Tele honors the legacy of the Squier catalog and its predecessors. The first instruments bearing the Squier name were introduced in 1982, responding to the demand for authentic Fender designs at affordable prices. The Squier 40th Anniversary Collection offers special editions of the Telecaster, Stratocaster, Jazzmaster, Precision Bass, and Jazz Bass, all available in Gold Edition and Vintage Edition variants. The Squier 40th Anniversary Telecaster, Vintage Edition is a heartfelt tribute model featuring a collection of classic elements for the retro-oriented Squier enthusiast.
