Can anyone help me with this Squier Tele California Series?

Hi Everyone!

I currently bought this Squier Tele from a friend. He doesn't have any idea where this guitar was made. I need help on this. Been trying to look online but no solid answer to where this was made.

I have here the serial number (since this is the only numeric code at the back of the headstock on a sticker) 0060352489. Thanks guys!

Search for California Series Squier Tele here on TDPRI. There are some threads.

It appears to be a European release version of a Bullet or there abouts. ... She's a good looking guitar

Yep. I fell inlove with it the first time I saw it. Reminds me of Robben Ford. He uses a vintage 1960 Fender Telecaster with same color as my guitar, butterscotch to be precise. Thanks, man!

Made in China approx 2005 onwards for the Asian, Indian, Pacific & Australasian markets, definitely not European. In Australia they were priced around 30% cheaper than the Affinity Squiers
There is a lot of confusion on the web between these and the Fender California Series which were assembled in Mexico from US parts.

I think that I have the same problem ...

I think that the pickguard was replaced and the same with the microphones . Is it Original or fake ?
