The Vintera Road Worn series were always listed as limited editions. It looks like that edition reached its limit:

Did Fender discontinue the Road Worn series again?

glad i got one!
These were very popular; I'm sure there will be another series in the near future. But given Fender's current backorder status and the issues with the global supply chains the next round might not happen until 2022. As you say their intention with the Vintera Road Worns was to make them limited editions, and the last edition is now sold out (at least Fender has sold all of them to dealers and have no more in their warehouse; they might still be available in stores).

I’m sure they’ll be back as and when, builds hype.
Similarly glad I grabbed one. Trying to get as much of what I wanted to a price tag that I could do was a bit of a challenge but it’s a lot of guitar for the cash and has more than scratched the itch.

I had an actual 60s Gibson for a while. Never mind me not being born when it rolled out the factory, my mum might have just about taken her first steps!
All I’m saying is someone else put the marks on that one before me too

What, like the annual going-out-of-business sale this furniture company near where I grew up used to have?

The website must have been changed very recently. I believe I was looking at them on the Fender site not more than a week ago and they were still there.

I picked up a road worn LPB Tele recently. Wonderful guitar.

I understand these are new guitars - do they ship them without a box, so they get worn during transport?

actually they just drag them behind the truck the whole way.

They are definitely cool guitars, but I find them to be too expensive for my liking. I’m sure they’re just as every bit good as the American stuff, but I think my brain is programmed to not want to pay that much for MIM.
They went off some time between August 1 and August 8; it hasn't been too long.
I hear you. Over a grand w/o a hardshell case. Maybe my pricing barometer just needs to be recalibrated.

I agree with you guys, it’s steep for a Mexican model. By the same token, how often are you going to see a Fender nitro finished guitar for that price?
I had one here for a day. A few hours of playing was enough for me to realize that the huge neck was t optimal for my hands, although it wasn’t exactly as bad as I anticipated.

Maybe they will do them right in the future. Every time I picked one up they felt like a bad partscaster.
I love mine! ‘70s Deluxe. I won it here early this year. I’d never wanted a deluxe. Always hated the big headstock. Now I think of it as almost perfect. The big headstock balances the guitar very well and the individual vol/tone per pickup is something I’ve come to enjoy. The pickups are great. The vintage tuners are good even if the buttons are more modern.

Love my 50's RW Tele.
As good as any American Tele I've had. Bags of character.
