Deal Details
Looks like it won't ship until November, but this is the best price I've seen (basically used price) for this model, which has a chambered thin line body and P90 pickups...sort of Fender's version of a Gibson DC P90.

According to the guitar community, Indonesian Fenders stink, but Indonesian PRS, Schecter and Jackson guitars are great.

I've had one of these for a few years. Great guitar! The previous owner swapped in Frailin p90s, so I can't vouch for the Duncans but the short scale and set neck make this a unique experience in the fender universe.

Been awhile, but I def had fret sprout on an Indonesian Fender. I've seen others mention it on Reddit. Great price and worth a shot. Adorama return policy is A+ and they'll return and pay shipping no problemo.

Indonesian factories build to many different quality targets. By all accounts, the Fenders coming from there are not up to the same standards as other companies. As a signature model this one probably has better QA though - like the Squier J Mascis line that tends to be built to higher standards than non-signature Squiers

I have two Classic Vibe Squiers from Indonesia that are among the best guitars that I own (and are also the cheapest!) I personally think Indonesia makes really quality instruments these days, and most of the ones that have problems, the problems mostly come from supply chain shipping and storage issues.

I have two Charvels, one made in Mexico the other in Indonesia. The fretwork on the Indonesian one is far better than the MIM model. I also have two Mexican made fenders, both had fretwork issues.
