1981 Fender Telecaster Black & Gold Collectors Limited Edition Vintage USA About 500 of these guitars were made back in '81! Finding another one like this now is almost impossible, especially in good condition and all original. There is a similar one but with a maple neck on eBay for 3400 excluding shipping etc. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1981-Fender-Telecaster-Black-Gold-limited-edition-FEE0790-/331345770861 There were no series like this and there won't be, such a black Tele with gold-plated hardware can only be bought from this vintage series for collectors of 1981 and 1982. Serial numbers of the collectors' editions start with CE (Collectors Edition). The guitar body is made of one piece of ash. The neck is made of one piece of maple with a rosewood fretboard. The guitar has 21 frets! The headstock is painted in the body color (matching headstock). Original Fender F-Tuners. All hardware on the guitar is made of high-quality gold plating, which does not turn white over time, as practice has shown. Original Kahler bridge. The guitar resonates fantastically. The sustain is simply bombastic; among Fender Teles, I haven't met such interesting ones yet. This is not some deluxe-standard-custom shop, gentlemen)) But a real vintage piece, and perfectly preserved at that. The rosewood fretboard adds velvetiness to the sound and tasty low end in all three sound positions. The Tele is definitely worth its money, even more! If you have the funds for a Fender American Custom Shop Stratocaster or some Reissue, you better 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 sounds, but with a maple neck; mine has a rosewood fretboard, it sounds velvety and has a little less treble, but more mids and lows. I will soon record a review of my specific Tele. The guitar is in awesome condition, comes with a Fender case, documents, adjustment tools, and even a polishing cloth. The guitar is located in Dnipropetrovsk! You can listen to it on a good tube setup of your choice — Mesa Boogie, Marshall, Engl…. I will deliver to any point in the world
