All of the Californians are made in Korea now, I believe. Anyway, this one and the current crop of sixes aren't "real" Californians, in that they don't have 27 frets. Oddly, the USA Hamer shop won't make you a Californian anymore, even if you throw a pile of money at them. I'd love to get one of the old USA-made Californians with the ebony board and boomerang inlays, especially one of the neckthru versions. Not too many of those out there, though.
