In this concert, and other recent concerts (Madison WI) we can see Justin playing a 1983-1985 Fender Telecaster Elite. Jusin has a painted headstock and Gold hardware on his. There are images of a red elite telecaster from 1985 with a black headstock and black hardware, which leaves me to believe Fender produced a black/ gold hardware version, though I can't find any other information on it.

Justin uses a Gretch Corvette, most likely a 62/63 in his at home stream for the bernie sanders online rally.
