Maybe the D'Addario's I got was a lemon? Bought it from Yamaha, and rusted in a day :/

Yes Fenders are easy to fake because of all the after market parts. For faking a CS Fender, the easiest route is to buy a good quality Squire, replace the decal, neck plate, print a fake COA, stamp in a fake serial number on the neck plate & provide a nice Fender Tweed Case.

The Classic Vibe series is seriously very well made for a Squire. the finish the set up everything.
However, the moment the consumer ask's you to open it up.... boomz, you've lost.
If we view the average consumer as a "Sotong", we are in business
.
In any case selling fake stuff and passing it off as the real deal is outright cheating but selling fake stuff and telling your consumers that it's a fake is not considered cheating at all. In such a scenario, I think only the suppliers would get into trouble.

The dealer would get into trouble if they did that. why take that risk just to make a few more dollars?

Yes i like the CV series too.
True, but most of these 'enterprises' are based in China, and they require buyers to purchase online since it comes straight from the factory (i don't doubt that, but i am pretty sure it's not the real Fender factory
) Thus it would be pretty hard for a buyer to check. mostly depends on looks (which are imo, pretty easy to fake).Glad we saw each other's points.
Peace out^^
