Trying to establish value of this limited edition with a certificate saying it is a #64 of 79 Larry Thomas Corona guitar - has a walnut neck (not just fretboard - neck) and custom shop pickups.

Anyone familiar with the “Burnt” Corona limited edition circa 2013?

New one on me. Any more info re the wood source or whatever else lead to the limited run?
I don't like the obvious seams (wood joints)

So Fender produced a unique design of COA for a non Custom Shop guitar? I thought they deliberately didn't do that for fear of causing confusion?
First thought of the COA was that it doesn’t look legit. There isn’t a lot around to confirm the legitimacy of the story… this sure is an odd one.

I saw this floating around on reverb awhile back.
Yes ,same for me ! And I don't understand the Limited Edition
and Certificate of Authenticity with the way it's built ! ?
Also the picture on the Certificate is of a Luthier that cares about his Craftmanship !

Has anyone bothered to ask Fender if these certs are kosher?

Strangely enough I just saw this on eBay.
A non Custom Shop Fender with a COA? WTF?

If you look at Eric's youtube video (28 minutes long !). If you want to see the full spec, go to fender serial number lookup and type in the serial number. Pro set up with EB 10-48 and bridge is set flush to the body.

Thanks to everyone who has taken a look - I bought this new from a dealer, but long ago, obviously - I found another one sold fairly recently by a dealer who originally sold it & was reselling for the original owner, and the background they shared it that is part of a limited run that was apparently offered to Fender's highest volume dealers. Ash bodies taken outside the shop and burned, matched to the walnut neck (have never seen another walnut neck). The COA is legit - looks just like the others I've seen of different #. The serial # search on Fender shows it as a "Burnt" American Design, but the "click for details" doesn't have any details available unfortunately. It is a very cool guitar that plays well and has great tone with the custom shop pickups they installed.
