American made, in 2003-2004 as far as I can tell. Bought 4 years ago and have loved it, but am after a different guitar so it needs a new home. Got plenty of use, aswell as multiple fret board set ups and professional tune ups while I've had it. There is superficial paint chipping on the body(was there when I got it) but I've always liked it he look. Feel free to text any questions etc ; Mike 778 677 7498
