I have built both the Sonic Blue, and the Fiesta Red ones for about 800 a piece, so 939 isnt too bad for one already made. I just wish they would have done this sooner so I could of saved some time.lol

Well where is it made?

Oh never mind, the video above answers the question. Japan.
Yes its Japan made. Wonderful neck. Its the thin compstang neck which i like. The real Seymour Duncan jb humbucker not the duncan designed. The mustang single coil is weak. But sounds good in split mode with the humbucker. The only problem is the pots. 250 k ohm should be 500 k ohm. But thats easy to change. Good tuners. A real stable guitar.

About the video. I will demo the guitar as soon as i find a cam.
What songs do you want me to play?

Are you slow or just being purposefully clueless? As has been pointed out many times, it's made in Japan.

beautiful big "fender japan" on the box.

So much for your theory. Look, the guy IN THIS THREAD who bought one said it was made in Japan. This NAMM video clearly says they're made IN THE SAME FACTORY AS THE JAPANESE FENDERS THAT KURT COBAIN USED TO PLAY, i.e. Fuji Gen, i.e. Japan.

I don't know why you would think that they'd suddenly move a guitar that's only been made in Japan for almost 30 years, but stop it. It's getting annoying.
