Joe Strummer's Fender Telecaster Guitar Greeting Card, DL size

This DL-sized greeting card features a highly detailed hand drawn colour illustration of Joe Strummer's Telecaster by George Morgan on the front and on the rear a brief history of the guitar. The card is produced on 350 g/m2 card and supplied with a quality white envelope in a clear cellophane bag. Joe acquired this 1966 three-tone sunburst Telecaster in 1975 and it remained his main guitar throughout his career. After joining the Clash the body and pickguard were refinished with a coat of grey primer and a black top coat in a car spray shop. By 1979 a bridge with individual saddles had been fitted, the original tuners had been replaced and the "Ignore Alien Orders" sticker had been applied. The guitar remained in this configuration through his remaining career whilst being adorned with a variety of stickers.
