I am looking at getting this guitar but I know its sometimes hard to tell the difference between american and japanese. It looks pretty legit to me. case candy matches the number on the bridge. How hard would it be to fake that if they wanted to??
When i look up the number online it says it comes back to an american made guitar but one can never be too careful. Im trading a really nice amp for this guitar if I do it. So here are some pics....what do you guys think?

Yes, it all looks legit to me. The serial number checkers for some reason read American 52 reissues as Vintage pre-cbs Fenders.

From the Fender website:

V + 5 or 6 digits (American Vintage Series except ’52 Telecaster, which uses a five-digit number stamped into the bridge plate

Looks just like mine. :D
