The 70th Anniversary Broadcaster® pays homage to the electric guitar that shaped modern music. First appearing in 1950, the Broadcaster® marked Fender's bold entry into solid-body electric guitars. The anniversary edition faithfully revisits this rare original—of which only around 250 were ever made—featuring period-correct construction and aesthetics, down to the nitro finish and vintage-style electronics. A testament to craftsmanship, this model blends heritage and playability, with its '50-'51 Blackguard pickups delivering the clear, punchy tone that defined an era. Includes its original tweed case, certificate of authenticity, and optional vintage wiring kit.
