Hello,
I know I'm a newbie here but I have a question about identifying a possible telecaster. I picked up the guitar from a neighbor who was throwing it out, he's an older gentleman and said it was his sons. It has seen better days. I'm curios if this is an actual Fender or if it is a knock off, if it's a fender and it's worth parts or restoration I'd like to get it into the correct hands.
I've done some serial number research online and come up with the following information:
Your guitar was made at the
Fuji-gen Plant (for Fender Japan), Japan
in the Year(s): 1995 - 1996
The guitar has a Fender 50th on the next, "Made in Japan" at the bottom of the neck, and has Gotch machine heads.
Has you can see by the pictures, it's seen better days.
