Brad Paisley and the Fender Custom Shop are collaborating on a new Limited Edition Brad Paisley 1967 “Lost Paisley” Telecaster, a vintage-inspired reimagining of the original ’60s Blue Paisley Finish.

The guitar revitalizes one of Fender’s most beloved designs, the Paisley Red finish that was originally introduced in 1968. The Fender Custom Shop in Corona, California will produce 67 guitars, while Brad Paisley in collaboration with the Fender Nashville R&D team, will personally build 19 guitars as a tribute to the year of the original creation. The 67 from the Custom Shop will be sold through Fender’s dealer network while Paisley’s 19 guitars will be available exclusively through his channels.

“From the very beginning there has always been a pattern following me, from the moment they wrote my last name on my birth certificate. It’s unreal that my own name is one of the coolest finishes I think Fender has ever done. This is an attempt to show what this lost color could have been. It’s the best guitar I’ve ever had,” says Paisley.

The Blue Paisley Telecaster’s unique story began when Brad Paisley was gifted a nearly forgotten treasure—lightly used sheets of original Blue Paisley Cling-Foil from the 1960s. What started as a stroke of luck soon turned into a mission. Together with close collaborators Zac Childs and Joe Glaser, Paisley set out to restore one of his well-worn 1967 Telecaster guitars and revive the long-lost art of the Paisley finish. Through painstaking research and craftsmanship, they not only perfected the restoration but also recreated the original Paisley Cling-Foil paper.

First introduced in 1968, the short-lived Paisley Red and Blue Flower finishes were Fender’s answer to the counterculture moment of the “Summer of Love,” featuring decorative Cling-Foil paper adorned with vibrant colors and a matching metallic burst, and the guitars stood out with a bold psychedelic flair. However, the finish’s combination of thick paper, weak adhesives, and polyester clear coats made them vulnerable. Many Paisley guitars were refinished or repainted as chipping and flaking became unavoidable. By late 1969, Fender had discontinued the line, and these instruments began to fade into obscurity.

In the decades that followed, the Paisley Telecaster guitars gained a cult-like following. Often spotted in vintage stores, the instruments became prized by collectors and musicians drawn to their eccentric aesthetic and rare backstory. Paisley, who shares his name with the iconic design, naturally gravitated toward the standout classics. Now, in a full-circle moment through his collaboration with the Fender Custom Shop, Brad’s vision for the Lost Telecaster has come to life—an instrument that honors its vintage roots while embracing modern craftsmanship and precision.

“Brad Paisley’s deep connection to Fender’s history and his meticulous nature were instrumental in bringing the ‘Lost Paisley’ Telecaster to life,” says Chase Paul, Director of Product Development – Fender Custom Shop. “From the rediscovery of the original 1960s Blue Paisley Cling-Foil to the custom hardware and pickups—every element of the Limited Edition Brad Paisley 1967 ‘Lost Paisley’ Telecaster was crafted with purpose. This isn’t just an Artist Signature model—it’s a glimpse into what could have been, had this concept made it to production. A true missing link in Fender Telecaster evolution.”

“This project is a true reflection of the long standing relationship between Brad and Fender, and our shared passion for the Telecaster and its legacy,” adds Ben Blanc-Dumont, Director of Artist Marketing at Fender in Nashville. “The “Lost Paisley” Telecaster is more than just a signature guitar – it’s a love letter to the country music community that helped shape Brad’s sound and continues to influence artists across the world. We’re proud to bring this instrument to life with Brad, not only to honor a piece of Fender’s untold history, but to celebrate the players and creators who keep that legacy alive every day.”

Singer-songwriter Grace Tyler has inked with Concord Music Publishing for a global publishing deal, including her entire catalog and all future releases.

“Signing a publishing deal with my dream team at Concord is truly a full-circle moment—proof that patience and passion pay off,” says Tyler. “I’m beyond grateful to be surrounded by people who believe in me, especially my biggest cheerleader, Courtney Allen. Her unwavering support means the world, and I couldn’t imagine a better team to chase this dream with.”

The Frisco, Texas native attended Belmont University, where she developed her skills alongside her mentor Lee Brice. Tyler first went viral with her single “My Mistake” in 2021, which went on to be featured on Spotify’s Fresh Finds and Fresh Finds Country playlists. She was also up for Spotify’s Fresh Finds Favorites in 2024 with her track “Weak Man.” Her debut EP, Everything I Didn’t Say, dropped this past March and showcases her vulnerable and honest songwriting.

“I offered Grace a deal at the end of our first meeting,” reflects Allen. “That’s how sure I was that I needed to work with her. For years, she has slowly and quietly been honing her craft and now it is her time to shine. I can’t wait to see what she accomplishes, and I am so proud to have her join the Concord family.”

At the end of last year, Tyler opened for Shane Smith & The Saints. She began 2025 by singing the national anthem at the 2025 American Rodeo Championship, and also had a set at the Lone Star Smokeout Country Music and BBQ Festival. She has upcoming shows scheduled for Cohasset, Webster and Hyannis, Massachusetts, and will perform at the ACM Lifting Lives Topgolf Tee-Off tomorrow (May 7).
