How can I tell if my guitar is real and not some rip off?

Question

I doubt it is, but I'll ask anyway.

It's only my first guitar Dx, so I really don't care if it is.

Anyway - It's black, with a Hello Kitty face pickgaurd. It says 'Squier Strat, by Fender' on the front of the head (I think that is what it's called :( ) and the shiny metal thing on the back says 'Squier'. (and forgive me for being completely clueless in the terminology, I only just started to play as a hobby). The back of the head says 'Designed and backed by Fender' and 'Crafted in Indonesia'.

I am just curious. I will still use it, it's cute and it didn't cost much. :D

Answer 1

it's real if someone was going to make a rip off it would probably be of a real Fender and not a squier which is just their cheap beginner line.

Plus I have a few of the hello kitty ones for sale in my store.

Answer 2

Lol honestly I do not think anyone would try to rip-off a Squier cus they are already an extension of Fender.
