Anyone have any experience with these? It's not a 97-98 California series....Anyone have a guesstimation on the current market value?

The US Fat Tele paired a Delta-Tone single-coil pickup with a chrome-covered DH-1 humbucker - mounted on a beautiful pearloid moto pickguard. Super 5-way switching system delivered all the traditional twangy Tele tones as well as new humbucking sounds previously unavailable on a stock instrument.

The guitar was available only with a rosewood fretboard since 2001, though Fender offered this country-rock machine with a maple fretboard between 1998 and 2000.

The US Fat Tele was finally taken out of production in 2003 and replaced by the American HS and HH models the following year.

By digging around I found out this is a 2003 American Tele HS, though the serial number begins with Z2....Chrome blue,maple fretboard, S1 switching, coil tap, staggered tuners, single ply black pg and open coil neck humbucker....I got it in a trade, not really my kind of Tele so I've decided to try and sell it. It's been 15 years or more but I want another Tele loaded with some benders
