Hollywood, CA (October 30, 2018) -- Fender Musical Instruments Corporation (FMIC) today announced it is collaborating with one of rock’s most legendary guitar players – Jimmy Page – to recreate his famous 1959 Fender Telecaster 50 years after Led Zeppelin formed in October 1968. Among music’s most iconic guitars is Jimmy Page’s Telecaster, known for its two “mirror” and “dragon” designs. It helped launch Page’s career in The Yardbirds and Led Zeppelin, and the guitar was used to record Led Zeppelin I along with countless hit songs on world-renowned albums. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Led Zeppelin and Page’s storied career as a guitar icon, Fender will release four artist signature guitar models throughout 2019, giving fans and collectors the chance to own a piece of history. Two models will be made on Fender’s production lines, and two will be produced in the Fender Custom Shop – dubbed the “Limited Edition Jimmy Page Telecaster Set.”

Great posts. It comes down to the sound and, if that 100+ percent copy performs like Jimmy says, it’ll be dynomite in anybody’s collection. :mrgreen:

Very cool. 8) I'm sure it will be $$$, though. Maybe if I win the lottery, or something. :P

I think they should bring back the Electric XII to complement the Tele pair.

That would be cool, since I don't think Fender even offers any sort of electric 12-string currently. I remember they had a 12-string Strat a few years back.

They have a limited edition Japanese Strat-XII for $900 right now, but it's not the Offset Waist body, and it's basswood.
Someone recently posted that they bought one and they like it.
I'm tempted... if they haven't sold out by Spring I might grab one.

Having owned a 12 string, and the way things are going with prices and all, this looks to be a good if not interesting deal. It may even become an unexpected investment, Rich. Who knows, with the times changing, we may hear a revival or restructure of some of the psychedelic/folk rock 60s? I wonder how it would sound through a Sitar stomp box? The 3 TSB looks good, but the white version certainly has a character all it’s own. Very cool. 8)

Wow, that's very cool. I didn't know that they even had this available. 8) I just happened to spot a Made in Japan Traditional 60's Precision Bass on the site that I'd love to have. https://shop.fender.com/en-US/electric- ... 00306.html

I need to look around here and see what's new. I do have a subscription to the Fender newsletter, but I never seen anything with these in it.

Ya, I would go for white, but I already have the AmSpec in white.
I never have had a 3TSB... had a 2TSB Partscaster that I built in the late 90s and sold it to my boss a few years ago.
