I found a tele from my friends. Which has serial no. on headstock- N1050790 but on neck plate-l00965. What is the year made of this model? Or is it two guitar pieces assembled into one guitar? I am about to buy this guitar.

It has 3 pu, bridge and mid pu seems ok, but neck pu is looks like the one in the middle, not lipstick pu. What kind of model is this?

From the s/no on the headstock, the neck at least looks like a 1991. I believe the letter signifies the decade (N for 90's) I have '78 Tele and it has "S8" as the first two alphanumerics. I am not sure what the neck plate number means as mine only has an "F", but in any case the modifications done to the pickups and cavities are unlikely to be original and therefore would reduce its value. However if the guitar feels nice and sounds good then that should drive your decision to buy if the price is right (ie way below current retail for standard American Telecaster) Hope this is some help.
