Hi, was it 2008 that the Am Standarard Tele had been upgraded? Is it possible that an American Standard Tele with a Z7xxxxxx S/N is considered a 2008 model and include the upgrades?
Thanks

i think i kinda have an idea of what you are talking about. my 2008 mia strat has a z7 (2007) serial number but it is considered a 2008 model because it has all the new upgrades. one thing about fenders is that all the parts of your guitar are not all made at once. they might make a body one day and stick a neck on it from a year ago. my strats body is made in 2008 and the neck is from 2007. i hope this helps you.

Agreed. Fender serial numbers have always been a little "off" on some instruments. Nothing to worry about.

Hello Ratboy,

Thanks guys, that's what I was hoping. I ordered a Candy Cola American Std with Rosewood fretboard. It'll be my first Tele!
:D
