This was a running change, and both “Made in Japan” and “Crafted in Japan” decals appear on instruments from 20. Crafted in Japan A + 6 digitsĢ007 was another transitional year for Japanese-made Fender instruments, with the return to the “Made in Japan” country-of-origin identifier on the serial number decal.
The sticker is a Black and Silver label, which contains several lines for 'sign-offs' at the completion of sound and electrical tests, where applicable.

This code is located on the 'QA' (Quality Assurance) sticker, which may be found on the back of the amp chassis. In 1997, Fender transitioned to a serial number decal that included the words “Crafted in Japan” above the serial number. All Fender amplifiers, manufactured after 1989 include a date code on the amplifier.

As always, serial numbers should only be used as a guide for dating and should be used in combination with known age-related specifications to help identify the production year of an instrument. Records on early Japanese-made Fender instruments are not complete and are therefore not completely definitive for dating purposes. I don't know how that Asher T Deluxe got in the picture but you can guess how it became part of my collection. What does that mean? When were they made? The good folks at Fender compiled a list to guide us in the general build dates of these cool instruments. I had the previous owner remove the sticker so I could get some info on it, even though the last 3 digits were scratched off. I wasn’t able to get any info about it from the new serial number. That is the third Orange Tabby I have lived with named Sherman and anyone who has ever talked to me about guitars quickly learns that I have a collection of red "E series" Made in Japan Fender Telecasters. I bought it from a person, not from a store. This sticker is a chart that shows the types of tube types used and the order of their physical location in the amplifier, and may be rubber-stamped with two-letter date codes that denote the year (first letter) and. It too has a serial number staring with CR-XXXXXX. On the inside of the cabinets of most Fender amps made after 1950 and before 1970, there might be a tube location sticker. I am looking at a Twin, black face, with 2 inputs, 6 knobs in the first section, 5 in the second, and 3 in the last. Also, everyone who says their serial number is CR-XXXXXX can’t be misreading it. Take a look at the picture taken in my sauna and you will notice I am a creature of habit. According to Fender, the serial number system started from 1994 on, not 1990.
