I had one that was an SQ Series, which was made in Japan in '83. I know the later ones were made in Korea, but I'm not sure when the switched from Japan to Korea with the bullets. I believe the Korean ones had a Strat style headstock instead of the tele one though, so that one may be Japanese.

Thanks for the post.The one I saw doesn't say "Made In Japan" like this one.

and the tuners just say "Fender" not "Fender Japan" like these.That is why I thought it might be made in Korea or some other country.

About the korean one, are they any good?

I can get my hand on one, exactly like this one below on ebay, minus the tremolo bar, for around 200$. Is it a fair price?
