  • USA or Japan?

    Hi guys,

    I've just bought a Jackson Bass guitar, 4 strings, EMG pickups, neck thru, red. On the truss rod cover, there's a Kip Winger signature.

    Here's the weird bit: there's no "Made in USA" or "Made in Japan" marks or anything. The Serial Number is: J101018. Can anyone help me identify this bass?

    Cheers

      How about this one (even though I think it reads "Made in USA" on the headstock of the red one pictured):

        That is one that was probably made for Kip or custom ordered, no?

          Probably... I knew the one here was not made in USA, but the quality is so good.

          Thanks for the help guys!

            Probably, but it is found under the "Jackson Pro" chapter in the 1990-1991 catalogue. So that's a bit weird...

              I vote U.S.A., we should put Japan back in its place by bombing them
