Hello! I am selling my 1999 Made in USA Fender Telecaster. I am selling it because i dont feel very comfortable when playing it. I enjoy my 1991 Fender Strat and my brand new Fender Jazzmaster a LOT more. And a guy offered his 1989 American Standard made in USA. For now I have only seen this video he showed me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdIBjWhD9MU that is the guitar. He wants to trade it for mine. What do you guys think? Of course i will try it myself if i decide to trade it, but i am just trying to get more opinions on this one.
Thank you!

Got some pics? I think from what you describe maybe in the $800-$1,000 range would be a fair price.

You need to see it in the flesh. On the plus side the guitar has been taught some cool stuff already.

It is difficult to tell much from the video although it looks like an oversized screw has been used to secure the top of the jack plug plate. I'm not keen on that.

Also the guitar looks a bit battered on the bottom edge. Considering how close to bullet proof that finish is that could indicate some significant abuse.

And finally what do the frets look like? On a guitar of that age they could be shot to sh**
