Espada R&D mules

Leo Fender’s Lost Design: CLF Research Espada

The CLF Research Espada is Leo Fender's lost guitar. The Espada’s blueprint was found among other of the earliest CLF Research drawings in a filing cabinet in Leo’s office dating back to the 60’s. Featuring an all new body style, pickguard design and a fresh new blade-sword-like control plate.

G&L Micro Preamp, MFD Split Coil Pickups and G&L PTB system complete the Espada's versatile tone palette.

The Espada R&D mule is a real guitar and gigging this weekend. The others are the pre-production Espada protos from the NAMM show.
