fender japan is badass
Not currently. Squiers are now made in Indonesia, Korea, and China. The Japanese Squiers were made through '97. This means the first run of Jag-Stangs were made in the same factory, but the reissues weren't as they shifted Squier production elsewhere.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squier for more info and to also figure out exactly what factory your Squier came from... if you want to know that sort of thing. Hmmm, Cort AND Samick factories make Squiers... Samick has always had better quality in my experiences... next Squier I get is gonna have an IS serial for sure....
