Mosrite of California is a brand I hold very dear to my heart although I don't really 'collect' or get involved in the Mosrite world much any more due to 'serious collectors' taking all.
Note: A new Japanese vendor was enlisted in 2010 to help meet demand for the Geddy Lee and Marcus Miller Jazz Bass models. I've heard there are are more than 2 in existence and their serial numbers are very high in the Mark V run (Cobain's is B1697, the highest I've seen is B1700.). This was a running change, and both “Made in Japan” and “Crafted in Japan” decals appear on instruments from 20.
Crafted in Japan A + 6 digitsĢ007 was another transitional year for Japanese-made Fender instruments, with the return to the “Made in Japan” country-of-origin identifier on the serial number decal. In 1997, Fender transitioned to a serial number decal that included the words “Crafted in Japan” above the serial number. As always, serial numbers should only be used as a guide for dating and should be used in combination with known age-related specifications to help identify the production year of an instrument. Records on early Japanese-made Fender instruments are not complete and are therefore not completely definitive for dating purposes. I don't know how that Asher T Deluxe got in the picture but you can guess how it became part of my collection. What does that mean? When were they made? The good folks at Fender compiled a list to guide us in the general build dates of these cool instruments. That is the third Orange Tabby I have lived with named Sherman and anyone who has ever talked to me about guitars quickly learns that I have a collection of red "E series" Made in Japan Fender Telecasters.
