I am a big fan of the world-famous Fender brand. I see the Fenders at the stores are all Chinese Fenders. Please tell me where can I buy genuine Fender Guitar? Thank you so much!

Only the Squier series are made in China (or Indonesia).

Fender makes guitars in the USA, Mexico, Japan, Indonesia, and China. I thought some were made in Korea but might be wrong.

Performer, Professional, Original, and Ultra guitars: made in the United States
Vintera, Player, and Artist series guitars: made in Mexico
Deluxe and Boxer range: made in Japan
Squier by Fender guitars: made in Indonesia or China

While the Squier series can be surprisingly good for the price, you don't need to insist on made in the USA for great quality anyway, the made in Mexico (and definitely Japan models) are great too.
