Looks fairly legit. I thought those headstock logos were on the Mexi standards however so i'm not completely sure. How'd you like those Probe youtube clips? Pretty sweet gat, can't believe its going so cheap!

New series to replace the Highway 1 series apparently. Low cost way to call it U.S. built. Check the low price point at http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem ... 0785584171

Yeah, American Special is the new entry level USA models. Cheaper than an American Standard. $1999 new for that or thereabouts, the Strats/Tele's are about $1799. Genuine, but not exactly a bargain at the price he's asking for a used one.
