Supposedly this is a used 2006 American Standard Telecaster but some folks on another forum I frequent said they weren't sure if it was a Standard or some other model. (The finish and saddles are the questions)

I put it on layaway at Guitar Center who had it for $599 no case. (Don't know if that's a good deal or not.

Hi There

My first thought would be a Highway One telecaster, try sending the serial to consumerrelations@fender.com and they should reply in a few days with the specificatins

It looks like a Highway 1 Tele to me as well; you don't show the headstock but the early Highway 1s had the same "spaghetti" style logo as used on American Series/American Standards. I'll echo ukraider and say verifying through Fender is the safest way to go.

Here's a shot of the front of the headstock to help identify. Thank you guys for the help!

I think you guys are right, its a Highway One. Sent an email using that link you posted with the serial number, just to make it official.

Anyway, GC is selling it for $599, no case - which I think is high. Didn't the H1's sell for around $750, or a little less, street? And that was with a soft case.

It seems like used Highway 1s go for right around $500 with the gig bag these days so that's about $100 too high for it, particularly without a case.
