Welcome!

California series ('97-98) are sort of looked for, as they are mostly of made in USA despite the MIM label on them, though with TexMex pickups and painted in Mexico. They go for $450-550 on Ebay.

The '52 butterscotch is THE classic tele.
( The pickups on the '52RIs have changed at some point. From Alnico 5 to Alnico 3, I think. )
