Available: January 1999 – December 2000
The DuPont code for Black listed by Fender in its charts (1711-X) is inadequate because it does not match any automotive black paint! There are several DuPont black paints for GM cars which Fender could have used in the 1950s: #99 in 1954 (Corvette), #2817-L in 1958 (Cadillac) or #88-L in 1958 (Corvette), but it's impossible to say for sure which paint Fender actually used at the time.
