I just received my new Fender 60th Anniversary Tele and could not believe the quality of sound and precise action of this beautiful American made guitar. I presently own a American Standard Strat and a Gibson es 339 and this new Tele is going to be my favorite. Nice job guys at Fender! I am really blown away by the quality. :D

I hate to be a Kill-Joy, but just because your 2011 American Deluxe Telecaster has a 60th Anniversary neck plate, doesn't mean that you have a "60th Anniversary Tele."

This is also the case with all other in-line American and Mexican made 2011 Teles that will carry the 60th Anniversary neck plate, except for the 60th Anniversary "Limited Edition" Telecasters that Fender is producing this year. The neck plate on your American Deluxe Telecaster only signifies that your Tele was made in the 60th year of Telecaster production.

Currently, there is only one (1) 60th Anniversary Telecaster that is available:
60th Anniversary Telecaster®
Series : Limited Anniversary Edition
Model : 0116112768
http://www.fender.com/products/60th-tel ... No=0116112
This guitar will be produced in unstated "Limited Edition" numbers throughout 2011.

Each month beginning in March, 2011, Fender is also releasing a different Limited Edition 60th Anniversary Telecaster, that is limited to approximately 500 guitars for each run. These guitars are currently available for pre-order. Here is a video from NAMM 2011:

Hi,

I´m looking to buy a used tele. It claims to be Highway one Telecaster part of the Telebration series. But I can´t find information about this model. I know there was a high way one telecaster back in 2006 as part of Fender's 60th anniversary, but is there a Highway One Telecaster from the Telebration series? Any info will be highly appreciated.

Serial number: US11013695

Cheers!

No such animal as a Telebration Highway One.

2006 was Fender's 60th Anniversary and while there may be a special Highway One to celebrate it, the serial # you give indicates a 2011 built guitar.

2011 was the Telecaster's 60th Anniversary (1951-2011) and the Telebration series was produced for the Telecaster's, not Fender's, anniversary.

Lots of confusion over the Telecaster anniversary models.

There was ONE Official Telecaster Anniversary model - a 2011 Limited Edition 60th Anniversary Telecaster in blackguard blonde. This is the 60th Anniversary model - #011-6112-768. It is essentially an American Standard Telecaster.

Additionally, twelve Telebration models were produced with unique features/exotic woods. One to be released monthly (approx.) throughout the anniversary year (2011-2012) in runs of 500. A few (such as the Old Pine Telebration Telecaster) had shortened runs due to the inavailability of the woods.

The twelve 60th Anniversary Telebration Telecasters are:

1. Telebration Hot Rod Vintage Deluxe

2. Browns Canyon Redwood

3. Empress Telecaster (500 examples in Honeyburst, 500 in Vintage White)

4. Telebration '75 Telecaster Natural

5. Light Rosewood Telecaster

6. Mahogany Telecaster

7. Lamboo Telecaster

8. Telebration '62 Telecaster

9. Telebration Cabronita Telecaster

10. Old Pine Telecaster (interupted at 300 examples due to inavailability of wood)

11. Telebration Modern Thinline

12. Flame Top Telecaster

You may have the commemorative neckplate, but that only means it was produced from late 2010 through early 2012, unless it is model #011-6112-768 or one of the Telebrations.

cheers!

There was no Vintage Hot Rod Deluxe.

The Hot-Rodded American Vintage Telebration was essentially a Vintage Hot Rod '52 with a full-sized Duncan SH1-59N humbucker instead of the Minibucker found on the regular production models. It also came with a fully intonatable bridge.
