I am checking out a guitar off of Craigslist tommorow and meeting the guy at guitar center. My question is how can I tell if it is a fake, a partscaster made from all American parts or a genuine rarity (doubting this one). If this is a partscaster made from all American fender parts, how much should I spend on it?


Here's the Craigslist add with the information and picture

Partscaster! Strat neck, Tele body, Eldorado (possibly) hardware. It wasn't built in the Custom Shop!

And I have never heard of Fred Jackson in connection with Fender, or the Custom Shop.

I've seen guitar floating around the forum a few times.

It's a fake.
