Hi everyone,

the local guitar shop has a mint 1994 USA telecaster that says Limited Edition 1994 on the plate on the back of the guitar. Its a transparent cream colour, rosewood neck and has a tortoise shell scratch plate. Does anyone know anything about these Telecasters? Its a beautiful thing and may buy it.

Tried all the usual places Google etc but found nothing.


New here so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Robin

Hi thanks for the info.

I am based in the UK so I'll email them.

To be honest, I bought it anyway.

Cheers

That's a great looking guitar.

You may want to email Fender again, the couple of times when I've emailed them they got back to me on the same day. Also check that you had the correct email address to start with and check your junk folder to see if a reply from Fender has gone in there for some reason.
