Hi,

I'm Erik from Belgium and I play a Fender USA Tele (1995) for about 3 years now I think. It is my main workhorse guitar. I love it but there are some thing that aren't very clear about this guitar.

The main thing is that the colour of this axe is a custom colour, "Gold Sparkle". There's some crackle in the finish, but not the crackle you get on an old vintage Tele, something really special but very nice !!! Now, the question is, are there any standard US Fenders that have some custom gold sparkle colour?

I think this is not the original colour. Because there's some little paint chip and under this paint chip I see a black undercoat. Coult it be that the guitar was black originally and not stripped before someone painted it in this nice sexy gold sparkle?

Second thing are the pickups, they are a bit different. I think there are some '52 reissues in it. Great pickups btw !!!

Grtz,
Erik
