Hi friends,

In a discussion among a video I posted, someone asked me what model of Fender Strat do I have (embarasing 'cause I thought it was a Standard :roll: it actually is a Hwy 1 :oops: ), well, the discussion went to the point of where are build the Hwy Strats? Is it build in Mexico? Is it assembled in US with parts build in Mexico?

Any help?

Thanx!

Thanx!! Yes, it is there, but, you know, some guys argue that the Hwy 1 is not completely build in the US, I argued that when I purchased it, even the front sticker said that :lol:,
so I stayed with the doubt. Thanx again.

Yes they are built in the USA with the use of some parts that are also used on MIM guitars.

From what I understand, the Highway Ones are about 85% american parts. They are assembled in the U.S.
