I bought a 1996 US 5-string Fender Jazz Bass on ebay the other day, but I'm not sure if the body is made in USA?

There are no signatures or stamps on the neck pocket as far as I can see (I knew that the pickguard had been modified when I bought it). It's probably been repainted since the finish of the paint is rugged in many spots around the body (the "ruggedness" is not from wear but from a bad paint job):

This is what my other US Jazz bass looks like:

The ferrules don't look right to me:

These holes look amateurish to me if you compare them to my other US Jazz bass (bottom image):

What do you think? Is this a US body?
