Hello everyone there are many Squier models and it is very hard to tell whether you're buying a real one or a well crafted fake. I have seen many China made California series basses ( J w P) and guitars here in Asia, and although they seem well crafted, I don't see these models included in Squier's catalogs or forums. I hope someone can help. Thank you very much. :D

The Squier California Series instruments are not imported by FMIC for North American distribution. Only instruments available in the USA and Canada are listed so the California Series Squiers do not appear on the fender.com website. They are legitimate and go mainly to emerging markets. I've never actually seen a single Squier California Series instrument in person, only photos of them. They have some nice colors in that series but the hardware and electronics are probably not as good as in more expensive Squiers like the Classic Vibe and Vintage Modified series. They make them to be super affordable in Asia.
