New Gear Day! I just bought a Fender American Standard Tele. Came with the SKB case. It is a 2006 model and is also a 60th anniversary model. It still had the plastic and the stickers on it. Never owned before me. It had been hanging on the wall in the local shop since 2006. It does have the 60th anniversary neck plate which leads me to ask.. Is it going to be worth more in the future? At the store it was priced the same as the other Tele's (around $1,000). But I have looked online and saw them going for $1,750 and up. Did I get lucky and stumble upon a valuable guitar?

That's a nice tele, I've always liked that candy cola color. However, it is not a special edition; it is a "regular" 2011 American Standard Tele. Fender put that "60th Anniversary of the Telecaster" on all American Standards (not sure about the American Deluxes) they produced in the calendar year 2011 in addition to the various Anniversary and "Tele-Bration" models. That being said, $1k is pretty much the MAP price for a 2011 American Standard.

Since it isn't one of the special models it will have the same value going forward as any other 2008-2010 American Standard Tele.
