Guitars

In July 1982 the Fujigen factory in Matsumoto, Japan, changed one thing on a guitar it had been building for a few months. The early export models carried a big Fender logo and a small "Squier Series."

Many of the mistakes may start in the record, before any model reads it. A guitar's serial number can belong to several manufacturing histories at once, and the detail that says which one is usually not written next to it.
