Interesting and goes along with the recent Broadcaster reissue. Demo is better starting around 2 mins and on.

Not being a guitar player, but a fan of guitars, this looks to me like a Telecaster. Wonder what makes this one different?

Cool. I've always dug the sound of a Tele/Broadcaster. Simple but deadly.

The Esquire has the same body machining as the Telecaster. The slotted area for a neck pickup is there so one could be added if wanted. It would require rewiring the switch circuit a bit to get it to function like a Telecaster. Some owners say not having the extra magnetic pull on the strings from a neck pickup helps enhance the sound of the bridge pickup.

>>>>The term Nocaster was later coined by collectors to denote these transitional guitars that appeared without a model name on the headstock. Since they were manufactured in this form for 8-9 months in 1951, original Nocasters are highly prized by collectors.<<<<
