Best known for playing with Elvis Presley, James Burton got his iconic pink paisley Tele from Fender in 1969 and used it extensively through Presley's death in 1977.
Says Burton:
"That was the guitar I played with Elvis from '69 up until he passed away in '77, and I also played it with Emmylou Harris and I played it on many many records. My mum and dad bought me my first Telecaster, which was a '52 that I played on "Suzie Q" and on tons of records."
