He did. I think it was after Seymour made the Tele-Gib for Jeff Beck. A few weeks later, if I remember right, Jeff's roadie went to see Seymour with three guitar cases. He said "Jeff said for you to take your pick"...there was a '54 Strat, a Broadcaster and the Esquire. Seymour chose the Esquire.Originally Posted by butnut
In fact, the Seymour Duncan Esquire is loosely based on Jeff Beck's Esquire...I think. Well, they both say Esquire on the headstock at least...
Also, Fender already makes an Albert Collins sig Tele. I can't remember the poster who suggested it, but yeah :) It's a sweet guitar, from what I've heard
