A Very Rare Early 1950s Fender Broadcaster S/N: 0080

Complete with original 'thermometer' case

 

Fender Broadcaster

A genuine example of a lovely condition and rare 'ultimate collectors' instrument. The Broadcaster model made between 1950 & 1951 before the 'No-Caster' and 'Telecaster' names

Its owner says that Leo himself confirmed, at a NAMM show, that the guitar was originally assembled by himself... although there is no way to confirm this information now

Previous owners: 1981 - Martin Barre (Jethro Tull) and before Martin, Paul Hamer (Hamer Guitars). Earlier owners cannot traced sadly

Sold with original case

Featured in The Guitar Magazine (now known as Guitar & Bass) Telecaster shootout by Robbie McIntosh - copy included with guitar

Also used for the cover shot of SESSION's 'Sessionette:75' guitar amp user's manual - 1981. Copy included

 

You can see the actual guitar in the capable hands of Dean Barnes below:
