Does Fender offer or have plans to make a Brad Paisley Tele? That man can play. I can't seem to find anything on his guitar. I know he uses a DR. Z amp but can't find the guitar. I'd love to have a guitar like his. Thanks :?

Brad uses a lot of Telecasters with McVay G-benders. He also has some Glaser-equipped guitars, like his '68 pink Paisley. I've heard that all of his Telecasters have non-stock pickups as well.

The bad thing is I was reading something on the web today that he had signed some sort of deal with Gibson? I don't understand that!! :?

A lot of the The Telecasters that Brad Paisley plays I beleive are Crook Custom Guitar Telecasters they even have a link to him on the guitar web site under their links section. They look like they are very nice guitars.

Brad does have a few vintage Fenders, a 68 or 69 paisley Tele, and I think one other one is a '53 with a '57 neck....he used that one in the video for his song "Alcohol".....all very sweet guitars.

But yeah, all those others he uses are by a private builder called Crook Guitars....I think he's out of West Virginia somewhere around the area where Brad is from.

I have this DVD that he put out a couple years ago and he talks about some of his gear on there....and i remember him saying he had Lindy Fralin pickups in almost all his guitars. On that DVD he also said that he had a Fralin of some sort in the bridge of that old Paisley Tele.
