I found one of these at my local pawn shop for less than $100 because the owner said it's a "Fake Fender with non-Fender parts." It's an amazing instrument! From what I understand it's an American body and neck with import/chinese hardware. The pickups are amazing as you demonstrated. Something about those 90s/early 2000s ceramic single coils in Squiers have a such a great sound. Fantastic demo, thanks for uploading!
