1981 Fender Telecaster Black & Gold Collectors Limited Edition Vintage USA Maple

1981 Fender Telecaster Black & Gold Collectors Limited Edition Vintage USA Maple Actually, it is exactly the same Tele as here, but a bit of a "backyard cat" that has seen the world. The guitar has wear, which is visible in the photos, but everything is original; from what I have seen, only the pickguard and its screws are not original. I will say that this is my favorite Tele, the one that arrived to me first, I actively use it in the studio, and I will keep one of them for myself, they are just very good, and they also have very high collector value. Let's move on to the description... This is a limited vintage Fender edition for collectors! About 500 such guitars were made, and finding another one is very difficult. This is a thoroughbred American, the guitar was made in the USA! I was lucky enough to become the owner of three different guitars of this series - one with a rosewood fretboard and two with a maple fretboard. The three Teles are similar, but due to the maple fretboard, there is, of course, more "glass" in this one, just as there is more velvet low-end in the Tele with the rosewood fretboard. Such guitars cost from $3400 in the USA Here is exactly this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/1981-Fender-Telecaster-Black-Gold-limited-edition-FEE0790-/331345770861 There were no such series before and there will not be any; such a black Tele with gold-plated hardware can only be bought from this vintage collector's series from 1981 and 1982. The serial numbers of the collector's editions start with CE (Collectors Edition). Externally, you can only find a similar Japanese model, but you understand that it is "not the same thing". The guitar body is made of a single piece of ash. The neck is made of a single piece of maple with a rosewood fretboard. The guitar has 21 frets! The headstock is painted in the body color (matching headstock). The tuners are original Fender F-Tuners. All hardware on the guitar is high-quality gold plating, which does not turn white over time, as practice has shown. Original Kahler bridge. 18-karat gold plating, by the way! :) For collectors to note! The insane sustain of the guitar pleases the hands and ears, no Custom Shop even comes close... There is plenty of "glass", and it balances well with the low frequencies. If you have the finances for a Fender American Custom Shop Stratocaster or some Reissue, it is better to take this 1981 Fender Telecaster Black & Gold Collectors Limited Edition Vintage USA - it will be many times more interesting!!! And it will have greater collector value, increasing in price year after year. This is how a similar 1981 Fender Telecaster Black & Gold Collectors Limited Edition Vintage USA with a maple neck sounds Comes with a Fender tweed case. The guitar is located in Dnipropetrovsk! You can listen to it on good tube equipment of your choice — Mesa Boogie, Marshall, Engl.... I will deliver anywhere in the world
