As I stepped onto the stage at the Dallas International Guitar Festival 2024, I felt a rush of excitement. In my hands was a piece of musical history: a 1933 Fender Telecaster. This iconic guitar, with its vintage charm and timeless sound, was about to take center stage once more, nearly a century after it was crafted.
