Mexico. Fender Japan doesn't export to the U.S. due to legal restrictions.

I'm in the UK, so it might be Japanese? There are a lot of the Japanese Fender guitars here.

Patrick:
I know piss-all about HH Jags, but I can tell you for absolute certainty that the CP Jags and Jazzes are all 100% hecho en México. I've had my nose so far up their consumer relations department's ass over the last year and a half, I can smell their tonsils.

Sorry these were taken with my iPhone, it's all I had handy. For super-nice fancy-pants photos of the guitar you can see it over on Creston's website.

I took a couple more photos that show stuff that isn't in the Creston gallery:

I told Creston I liked "big necks" and he took me very, very literally. This thing's a friggin' baseball bat, and I LOVE IT SO MUCH OH MY GOD. Huge but completely playable and comfortable.

The custom pickup ring sits flush to the rest of the pickguard. Gives the guitar a neat look and doesn't catch on your knuckles like a Les Paul pickup ring sometimes can.

And finally, here's an audio walkthrough of the guitar. It sounds amazing. It plays amazing. I have the nerdiest voice in the world.

Patrick:
Man I have been posting too much in this thread as it is, and now I have GAS and it's all your fault.

Also, nice use of drop D.
