Up for sale is a rare piece of Fender history: a 1963 Fender 1000 Pedal Steel Guitar. Introduced in 1957 and produced until 1970, the Fender 1000 was Fender's absolute flagship product in 1963—originally retailing for a staggering $1,000 (making it more expensive than any Stratocaster, Telecaster, or amplifier at the time). Today, it stands as a highly sought-after collector's item and a beautiful testament to mid-century American instrument design.
Key Specifications & Features
  • Dual 8-String Necks: Designed to accommodate two independent tunings (factory standard setup was typically A6 on the front neck and E7 on the back neck).
  • 8-Pedal System: Features Fender’s classic cable-and-pulley mechanism. Six pedals operate the front neck, and two operate the rear neck.
  • Premium Construction: Solid maple body finished in a stunning, iconic Fender Sunburst. Features a long 23” to 24.5” scale length.
  • Vintage Tone: Equipped with original Fender single-coil pickups (stylistically matching the early Jazzmaster era) that deliver a crystal-clear, bright, and authentic vintage country/western swing twang. Controlled by a 3-way toggle switch, master volume, and master tone knobs.
  • Modular Portability: Engineered to be fully disassembled (body, pedals, rods, and legs) for transport.
The Fender 1000 is a legendary mechanical marvel. Because many of these instruments were modified or parted out over the decades, finding an authentic 1963 model is becoming increasingly difficult. This guitar is a prime target for vintage Fender enthusiasts, studio musicians looking for authentic 1960s tone, and serious steel guitar collectors.
The guitar has "Bob Winans" name on stickers on it. Unfortunately there is no specific history known for us.
Original blonde tolex and orange interior cases.
