This seems to be the most popular Am. Std Tele option.

Really surprised you're the only person here w/ an Am. Std. TPDRI has a thread like this which is where I got the idea and it has about 100 replies/pics. POST PICS EVERYONE!! :D

My MIA Tele is a 2005. I've been really gassing for a new one because I love the glossy finish that Fender is putting on the fret board. My 50's Classic Series has that same gloss finish and that is why it is my go to guitar.

Enjoy your new Tele!

Love the crimson transparent with maple. The contrast with the black pickguard really makes this a beastly combo. This is my favorite guitar in both looks and sound.

I dig yours too!!

I also have the 3 tone burst with a maple neck 2011 American Standard Telecaster. Honestly I would rather have a rosewood fretboard. But whatever, its just a cosmetic thing... The finish job on the body is outstanding....

Only reason I got this particular guitar is because Music123.com had a special for this one new for $750 shipped (no tax or shipping charges)... Couldnt pass up the deal...

+1 I just got mine last night. I prefer rosewood too, but went with the maple. You're right about the finish. Pictures don't do it justice.

I went for a rosewood fretboard on my 2012, 3-Color Sunburst American Standard. It was time for something different and there it was. :)

I bought my American Standard Tele back in 1994 and wouldn't you know it, sunburst with a maple neck! It currently sports a Lace Sensor Blue at the neck and a Lace Sensor Red at the bridge.
