Welcome :greet:

I believe it is a USA Legacy body:

Body color finish is Fullerton Red which is a USA only color.
The pickguard has 8 mounting screws. The Tribute Series Legacy pickguard has 11 mounting screws.
The body wood looks to be Alder (view neck pocket). Tribute Series wood for solid color finish is Basswood.

Hope this helps.

I also thought it was an American body but Craig nailed it with the pickguard screws. I didn't know that. Good point to post in the knowledge forum.

Do you have a neck lined up as that could take a while. USA necks are not that common, Tirbutes are but may require a lot of fitting. Great score for the right price! -- Darwin
