It's weird, from other pictures I've seen online, I can't tell for sure what this guitar is. The serial number is z4218447, which I think means USA, Corona, 2004. Maybe?

One weird thing is that the heel plate is BLANK (I removed the CE sticker). Also on the back of the headstock is just the serial number with no "made in USA", but it does say "Fender Made in USA" on the front of the headstock.

Here are some pics. Sorry for the crummy quality. Best I could do. Thanks very much for any input! :-) Images are here: http://ge.tt/8OkuAQR

It looks like a 2004 Highway 1 Tele to me - the first generation Highway 1s used the same style headstock decal as the American Series at that time (which this one has); they changed to the 70s-style decals circa 2006. The Highway 1s also use the blank neck plate and the vintage style bridge.

To verify you can always email Fender's consumer realtions team at consumerrelations@fender.com.

I did have trouble posting these pics. Not sure why. I used the "img" function I thought in the right way. Hhm.

Anyway, thanks so much for the responses. Really helpful, and I love this guitar!

You need to insert the URL address which contains the uploaded files between the tags, otherwise the IMG function would not work. The backslash closes the IMG tag.
