Hello everybody,
I recently found a telecaster for sale with the serial # beginning with FN, owner says it's made in USA for export,
which is true, but looking at the photos, there is something about the parts that just don't look like American made parts. Does anyone know about these guitars? I'm really considering purchasing this guitar.
Thanks, John
I can post pics as soon as i figure out how.

You need to upload the photo's to an image hosting site like Photobucket.
Then get the web address of the picture you want to post. Copy that web address. Post it here with the box brackets. That will display the picture.

It's quite vital someone that knows checks the guitar for you, if you don't know yourself. Fender's product dating info says.
"FN(XXXXXX) U.S.-made guitars and basses destined for export market. Some may have stayed in the U.S. or found their way back (made to Standard Stratocaster specs; dating unclear)"

That however is no guarantee. Serial numbers are easily copied and forged.
