The basic guitar is made at the Terada factory in Japan. Can anyone shed any light on this? If it truly was an American guitar, itt was a bargain. Did a quick search on my iphone which is frustrating at the best of times and it seemed tome that the parts, or some of the parts where made in Japan, but the guitar was assembled in USA. No where on the guitar did it seem to have a serial number or 'made in the usa'. Compared to a Gibson 335 it was a very attractive price and I'd decided to buy it until I saw the 'assembled in USA' sticker. Anyway, the guy was telling me it was definitely made in the USA factory, the equivalent of any Gibson etc. Was a lovely guitar and had the mini humbuckers. It was brand new but a clearance item so it may have been a recently superseded model.
