So, the irony is the guitars are sourced often the same in some respects, but the common thread isn't Mexico, it is some country in Asia (and not necessarily Red China). The bond that MIM and MIA guitars often have, is that they use the same MADE IN ASIA jacks, pots, tuning machines, and so forth. Unique Low Gloss Finish for Extra Resonance Players demanded it and Fender delivered it in 2002 This Highway One Strat was born with a new, unique Saphire Blue satin lacquer finish and a mind-blowing low price tag, making it one of the most in-demand Strats in the entire Fender catalog. I am willing to just call people out, not because I hate them, but because I am real focused on not looking stupid to the guys who really do know at FMIC and elsewhere. One-piece maple neck and fingerboard with modern 'C' shape. If a forum is small enough, if the guys are too reluctant to call out their comrades when they step in it, you get perpetuation of myths.

great up for grabs is a highway one series fender telecaster in blonde finish, made in usa. The Fender employees will tell you no, but it isn't enough. Fender Precision Bass Pickguard P Guitar Custom Plaintrip. You will find, when it comes to the Internet, that some Forums have misinformation that does not wash out.
It is not inconceivable that certain USA origin parts would go oversupply in Mexico and be trucked back to Corona where they were needed at once. One of the reasons that the American is priced higher is the additional quality craftsmanship and cost of labor needed to be manufactured in America. USA law prohibits a company from even selling as "Made in USA" anything that is extensively made elsewhere, and the penalties are not insignificant.Ī lot of the wooden parts on these MIM and MIA models are actually CNC'd in SoCal, then certain ones are trucked to Mexico for further finishing and etc. FMIC Corona spent a boatload of money to get in compliance with the California Air Resources Board, and once the Ensenada plant had recovered from the fire they had, there was no reason to be trucking these things back and forth like this. The California series was once done something like this, but things changed afterward. Not looking for Trades thanks, I'm pretty sorted for kit !Īlso have a set of brand-new Fender Locking Tuners (cost £60) that I'll include for £40, but still have the original ones as well. I have a proper Fender Guitar Box ready to ship it in.

Has had a basic Setup with 10's but would benefit from a proper Pro Setup to your own taste.īased just outside of Bath BA2, but I'm travelling around for a few Gigs soon, so may be able to sort out a drop-off along the way. (sadly, I can't afford the luxury of keeping it as a case queen!). Not much else to say, apart from it's a beautiful playing and sounding Strat and would be perfect as either a Case queen or a Gigging Guitar. then along came a beautiful VG Strat which suits my Gigging needs better, so this one has to go to fund it.

I bought this with the intention of it replacing my aging Strat Plus as my main Gigging Guitar. Has a couple of minor marks and a small indentation on the rear of the top horn that I've tried to capture in the Photos but given that these are designed to be played and the acrylic finish will relic easily, this is as clean and unmarked an example of one of these you will find, still has the sticker on the backplate ! The previous owner had bought this from new and had kept it tucked away in a Gig Bag and barely used it. Very lovely Fender Highway One Strat from the original 'small headstock' series, dated 2003.
