Bruce Springsteen's AV'62?
Hello Fellow Tele Enthusiasts!
I am in the hunt! I have been waiting for a really good feeling/sounding telecaster that was appealing on the eyes and the ears... Then I saw the Fender American Vintage 62 Tele. The DB Sunburst body just looked gorgeous... and for it not to have gold hardware was a huge plus. This guitar has been on my mind for a while now... (although this isnt the purpose of the topic, what do you guys think of them?) I caught The Boss on Jimmy Fallon last night, and was amazed when I saw Bruce slinging a tele that looked IDENTICAL to the one in my dreams... Anyone know if Bruce picked up an AV'62 and became a member of the DBTOC? If so, then I believe it has become a priority for me to buy this guitar... Any news let me know... Link Below: http://www.latenightwithjimmyfallon....-27-12/1387734 Not a bad video, but not the same without Clarence. RIP Any news on this, let me know. Thanks guys and gals! -AT44-

It's a Custom Shop, can't find it now but I've seen a pic with CS logo the back of the headstock.
There's a thread about Bruce's guitars and the double bound sunburst one is discussed there. |

Whatever it was, I thought it had a CBS transitional decal and it definitely had two string trees. If I was seeing the decal correctly then it wasn't supposed to be a 62 model (or at least an accurate one). I just figured it was probably an authentic 65, 66 or 67 Custom. But, that was first I saw the guitar so I could be mistaken.

he's spoken in the past of not being a guitar collector - until more recently, so I doubt it's an original Custom, and I've seen the CS logo on a number of his guitars. I love the Sunburst CS Tele 12 he uses in this video

I love the Sunburst CS Tele 12 he uses in this video. In the Houston 78 DVD from 2010, he uses a Fender Electric xii, so I assume that wasn't his. I've only seen him use 12 string electrics twice.
