Fender Brent Mason Telecaster

🧑‍🎤 Who is Brent Mason?
Brent Mason is a highly influential guitarist known for his work in country, jazz, and blues styles, especially within the Nashville music scene. He has played guitar for countless top-tier artists such as Alan Jackson, George Strait, Shania Twain, and Brooks & Dunn. His technique blends speed, precision, and complex phrasing, making him one of the most recorded session guitarists in country music history.

🛠️ The Origin of the Signature Model
The Fender Brent Mason Telecaster was inspired by Brent’s heavily modified 1967 Fender Telecaster, a workhorse instrument he customized himself to accommodate a wide range of tones—perfect for studio versatility.

His original guitar featured several unique modifications:

A Strat-style middle pickup, adding classic Stratocaster tones

A mini humbucker in the neck position instead of the standard single-coil

A custom bridge and rewired electronics

A push/push switch for advanced pickup combinations and coil-splitting

Fender collaborated with Brent Mason to create a signature model that faithfully recreates his original Telecaster, down to the smallest detail, and built it as a production model made in the Fender USA factory.
