Description Product Description Sheryl Crow has been gracing us with her music for over 20 years, from singing in a local band in college to performing backup vocals with Michael Jackson on his Bad World Tour to in the late '80s then winning 9 Grammys and selling over 50 million of her own albums across the world. Aside from touring with Michael Jackson, Sheryl Crow has had the opportunity to perform with many other distinguished musicians including Eric Clapton, Smokey Robinson, BB King, Bob Dylan, Tina Turner, Sting, the Rolling Stones and more. Blending the best of country, folk, pop and rock genres all into one, Crow has released over 7 albums up from the release of Tuesday Night Music Club in August 1993 to her most recent release in September 2013, Feels Like Home.Although Sheryl had been playing the acoustic , during her junior year of college Crow picked up her beloved '60s reissue Tele, which unfortunately got stolen right before a show in 1994. Her love for this particular guitar was obvious because as soon as she realized her guitar had been stolen she went right to the local music store and picked up the same exact one.A few years passed and while Crow was in Austin, Texas for a show, she acquired a REAL vintage Tele. The story behind this 1959 Custom Telecaster in particular is deeply moving.

This Tele belonged to this fan/young man's mother who was losing her battle to breast cancer. The guitar had sat under the mother's bed for several years but the son believed that this guitar should continued to be played, and they thought who better to have it and play this guitar then Sheryl Crow, considering they were big fans of hers and her main instrument was in fact a vintage reissue Telecaster. Crow was touched by this story and accepted the guitar, and still to this day this 1959 Custom Telecaster i
