Building The Limited-Edition Brent Mason Telecaster | Dream Factory | Fender

[@robertrogers49]

This couldn't have happened to a more deserving guy. Brent Mason is an absolute legendary guitar player and a really nice person and this signature model in my opinion was a long time and well over deserved build. God bless Brent Mason and God bless the guys at the Fender Custom Shop

[@blaisemacpherson7637]

I was one of those kids who always ripped out the lining covers of all of three albums. I saw brents name a lot next to Rob Hajacos Stuart Duncan and Paul Franklin. They are like Nashville's seal team six

Kinda like seeing Steve Lukather on every single pop album. I can remember seeing Brent on all those Allen Jackson tunes and wondering why I'd never heard of him (I was probably 8, so I assumed anyone good was a famous name... How wrong I was).

[@BigPhi84]

One of the coolest guitars Fender has released in the past decade! 👍🏽👍🏽

[@braderrick]

It’s about time Fender gives this man some attention! Master of the telecaster and has used it to play on more tunes than anybody I would say!

[@allstopblue5717]

90s country was at its all time high and yes, this man was on song after song after song with that tele. Amazing player.

[@bjohnson515]

Mason has had the most impact on country music in the past 25 years than anybody, IMO. The leads for Alan Jackson, Brooks and Dunn , etc....

[@sirjames45]

That Brent Mason switching system should be on EVERY Stratocaster ever made from now on!

[@stevenmgyori3826]

Iconic Musician, Guitar and Legendary Studio Player! Congrats Brent! Well Deserved! You're a Great Inspiration and Thank You for All You Share! Thanks Fender, Well Done! Be Well All!

[@sowiloi]

Interesting aesthetics with the mini hum and the red single coil! Sounds good too!

[@bluesyjazzcat31]

One of my favorite guitars and one of my favorite players for sure. Ever since I got a strat, I was always tinkering with it and trying to set it up as best as I can. Joe glazer is a legend and it’s great to see him in this vid

[@victor.leslieaugustpikingt8848]

Well done to that guy at FENDER and it's his first try .FENDER please give him another one to do

[@Bob-335]

I just got mine. I can't put it down. Man, my butterscotch is jealous!

[@fender]

We know you'll make every note count!

[@Heavenreck]

Definitely the coolest Fender Tele in the world. I am so glad they made this. I watched Brent's interview several years ago on the tone lounge talking about this guitar and its now a real thing its amazing

[@douglasgoodall3612]

After checking the usual places, I stumbled across the last one available on Amazon, and I hit the Order button without further thought. Oh Friday can't come fast enough for me. I have been waiting about twenty years looking for the right Telecaster to add to my modest guitar collection. I believe this guitar will inspire me to work harder on my skills.

[@patrickbrown8540]

Awesome player! The countless hits that guitar has recorded over the years is mind boggling.

[@douglasfuqua7082]

Great job, Brent. That is one very special, unique Tele !!! Givin' me some sweet ideas. ... Crossbow

[@richsackett3423]

Me too. Cable-drive B bender! Have a Tele in the next room getting fine-sanded and polished tomorrow. Pretty sure it's getting a middle pickup. Had a NOS SD Jaguar pickup in my stuff for ages.

[@spartan8390]

Beautiful guitar. Oddly enough, this is my first time seeing this type of bender on any guitar. I've said it before, and I'll say it again; Fender's pursuit of new ideas (while still putting out the classics) is what sets them apart. I wish they had kept the Elite line, but the Ultra does make sense as a natural progression. These limited lines are always something I look forward to seeing every year.

[@toreropalido]

Wish there were paint options. But yeah, this guitar better be better than the original. Evolution.

[@wjewell63]

I love everything fender..........

[@johndellaselva687]

What a talented guitarist and a versatile Tele. Unfortunately I've made do with my Partscaster replica sort of this idea minus the B bender.

[@TheGreenKingdom]

Cool guitar and story. First the EJ Virginia Strat and now this, wonder what will be next?

Good stuff

[@oldmanfred8676]

Very COOL 😎

[@louisthomass]

So cool!

[@BulldoggerJK]

I bought a Mason. Warning: Have them check the bender lever hole. Dunlop strap buttons aren’t consistent. I spent a couple hours filing stainless steel to get the strap lock to fit. Other than that, I LOVE this guitar. Ill own it until I die.

[@beeps123]

Probably a nice guitar. That only Brent fans may consider.

[@johnshanesyandtheaccommoda1189]

Or it may come to inspire many young musicians to learn about Nashville techniques and studio playing who may one day become the Brent Mason or Tom Bukovac of their generation. Sorry you see the world the way you do :(

[@beeps123]

John Shanesy It’s too late for that. Sorry. Probably as lame as the Page tele. It’s a complex guitar here. With a complicated bender. Maybe u can get it first. Then we’ll see. Kids ain’t dumb. By the way. They’re obviously smarter than u.

[@johnshanesyandtheaccommoda1189]

BeeElectric why do you think these guitars are lame? Like what about them are lame?

[@johnshanesyandtheaccommoda1189]

BeeElectric duh their smarter than me, we would’ve failed them if they aren’t smarter than the previous generation!

[@beeps123]

John Shanesy Simple. Actually the guitar ain’t simple. The bender part is cool. But all the extra jargon. No thanks. That’s it. Hence only the mason fans may consider. If This is modded over a ‘67 reissue then not bad. Otherwise boring artist model. The Danny gatton model.. now that’s something. This particular model would be better off in the standard series.

[@richsackett3423]

Cable-drive B bender? Mind blown.

[@nickdevriese]

Come on Fender... Make a Keith Urban signature. The opportunity is right there. The consumers want it, and Keith would be willing. Why not?

[@alexandblaise]

Good video

[@sturock2000]

That studio looks very familiar 🧐

[@th3unmaker]

With a name like Mason and the Fender logo that looks like a square, I thought this video was about another subject entirely 😁😉

[@guitareveryone]

Brent Mason, your killing me man. I’m liquidating gear to purchase a Brent Mason signature Tele. Not the relic one though, I would have to remortgage my house for that. 😂

[@1978garfield]

I wish non reliced was an option. It is a great guitar but I hate the idea of paying extra to replicate the dirt from the original.

[@TheBillStickers]

This is one of those replicas where the only way to tell is the smell

[@daveycmusic5150]

great guy, incredible player.....can get all those tones with a strat....so buy a strat.

[@jasonpwilding]

So much GAS

[@CooperThomas92]

Amazing. Was this shot at Vince gills studio?

[@pb12661]

No, YOU can do all the steel parts. 😉

[@Imw101]

So what's gonna happen if a buy a Brent Mason replica and I become such a famous player that Fender decides to produce a signature replica guitar of my replica?

[@charlesbolton8471]

The same thing that happened when Slash became famous playing a Chris Derring Les Paul replica. It would be a copy of a copy. Except in this case Fender would be copying themselves. Other than the fact that Brent has already had a signature model with Valley Arts before Gibson ran that brand into the ground.

[@bjohnson515]

Don Kelly Band.... Has a band ever had better tele players? Mason, Hyland, Trapp, Simo, Donato..... and Roberts had a pretty good fried bologna sandwich With that guitar .... and some more talent....I could be pretty good

[@derrickbarnett8851]

It’s awesome but 13 grand for a custom shop woo. But I 80 percent on getting the poor people’s version

[@Imw101]

Y'know I just don't GET paying thousands for master builder Teles and Strats. Leo designed the Tele (especially) to be two bits of wood screwed together. A 70--year-old Broadcaster now worth a fortune was probably knocked up in around two hours by a guy on minimum wage who randomly selected a body and a neck from the shelves. That was the beauty of the instrument - FUNCTION OVER FORM. $13,000 for something MADE to look as if it has been in a car crash is nuts!

[@Sasketchejuana_man]

WHy did fender make it blue? its a automobile paint primer grey color

[@tonytrout4321]

I'd love to have one of these but.....I live on a very low fixed income and this guitar, with the full deal (custom Heavy Relic finish to the ultimate Tele upgrade: a built-in Glaser Bender) is probably one I'll never see in my lifetime. :(

[@warmcrunch3829]

Has fender sold a B-bender like this before?

[@charlesbolton8471]

As far as I know Fender has never used the Glaser Bender on any regular production model before this one. They have used the Parsons White B Bender typically. The only exception I know of to them using the Parsons White before this is one of the short lived Will Ray Signature Models from the 90s which had a Hipshot Bender. Gibson had a very unique limited edition model in 2013 called the Music City Junior that is basically a Tele shaped like an LP Junior/Special which uses this Glaser Bender.

[@warmcrunch3829]

charles bolton thanks so much for the info!

[@ericheine2414]

Try a 1982 Fender Smith Strat hardtail. The guitar has so much Telecaster to it. I cut my teeth on a tele. People screw those guitars up.

Who thunk of the B bender ???? so thats how they get that sound .

[@charlesbolton8471]

The first guitarist to use a B Bender was Clarence White when he was a member of the Byrds. He actually created the B Bender with Gene Parsons who was the Byrds’ drummer at the time. There design is called the Parsons White B Bender, and Fender has used it on The Nashville B Bender Telecaster and a few other Custom Shop Models including the Clarence White Signature Model. Clarence White was killed on July 15, 1973 by a drunk driver while loading equipment into his vehicle. His guitar with the original B Bender is owned an used extensively by Marty Stuart.

[@charlesbolton8471]

The Byrds’ album Sweetheart of the Rodeo from 1968 is great example of Clarence’s use of the B Bender especially the cover of Bob Dylan’s “You Ain’t Goin’ Nowhere”. The album is considered to be one of (if not the first) country rock albums.
