The Story Behind the Print

U.S. Design Patent 169,062, granted March 24, 1953 to Clarence L. Fender, records the ornamental form of an electric guitar through front, side, rear, and detail views. Its asymmetrical solid body and restrained hardware layout belong to a decisive period in amplified instrument design.

The four elevations read almost like an industrial-design presentation board, balancing the long neck with compact body profiles. This restored edition keeps the original black drafting lines and patent typography on cool timeworn paper with a restrained black border.

Printed to order on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper with fade-resistant archival pigment inks. An exacting addition to music rooms, studios, rehearsal spaces, and guitar collections.

Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece—the print will always be richer.

About the Frame

Framed pieces are built to order in solid wood with clear acrylic glazing, dry-mounted artwork, a kraft paper dust cover, and hanging wire. Each piece arrives ready to hang. No mat. Satin Black has a 7/8-inch face and adds 1.25 inches to the total width and height. Slimwood Silver and Slimwood Gold have a 1 1/8-inch face and add 1.75 inches to the total width and height.

The selected size refers to the artwork itself. Framed orders are custom made and ship within 7 to 10 business days, free in the U.S. See our shipping and return policies for framed piece details.

Wow wow wow! I am BEYOND thrilled with this piece. The quality of the print and the frame- absolutely stunning. Came earlier than expected. Justin is fantastic. Will definitely be ordering from him again. 10/10 would recommend!! If you’re on the fence, do it; you won’t regret it.
Initially, I wasn't sure what size I needed. The seller was extremely helpful and offered to send mock-up images of the image in the frame so I could physically visualize the piece! Overall, it is a beautiful accent piece for our entryway table! Frame/image came packed well with not a scratch on it! Would recommend this seller 100%.
My daughter loves the map in her room. She looks at is a lot . She points to all the places she wants to travel to. The packaging was great. It was very safe with all the bubble wrap! The frame was what I picked out. It arrived when it was suppose to. Thank you Liz
