Condition: Excellent Made In: USA - 1990s

Collectors Edition 1998 50th Anniversary Fender Telecaster - the general specification is broadly based on a '55 model Tele. The condition is used, and this listing is collection in person only. So if you can by all means call and check it out. One of up to a maximum of 1998 made in 1998 to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Fender Telecaster/Broadcaster/Esquire. These guitars were built at the Fender factory in the USA to a high quality level, and I have it on good authority that the Fender employees who worked on these had to wear special gloves. This particular guitar has only been played lightly and is considered to be in excellent condition as it has been cherished by two or three collectors. However, it is a 22 year-old guitar and there are some blemishes on the tops of the gold knobs and if you look hard enough there are some marks in the lacquer around the rear strap button. The guitar comes with a Fender Tweed Case and basically the package looks like a Custom Shop offering, but of course it is not. It is a Collectors Edition model though and built to play as well as cherish, so it sounds great. Rather than leaving it in the case, the next owner might just prefer to use it for the purpose intended because it's a great looking and sounding Tele.
