Made in the USA in 1997 as part of the very short lived "California Series". Fender advertised these as "a combined effort by our guitar makers in Corona, California, and Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico. All California series are produced along the Pacific Coast Highway. First the bodies and necks are cut and shaped in Corona. Then, they're sent to Ensenada where they're sanded, painted and buffed. Final assembly is then performed in Corona using genuine Fender hardware and electronics."
Solid alder body bolted to a maple C profile neck with a 9.5" radius and 42mm nut width, weighs 3.5kg's. This one is in well used condition as pictured with plenty of wear and tear. There's a small crack in the headstock that is stable with no structural issues and the frets are heavily worn but it plays nicely as it sits.
