hi and welcome to shortscale.

try your luck here: http://www.guitardaterproject.org/fender.aspx without telling us where it's made I guess nobody can tell you any better than that.

Is it Crafted in Japan or Made in Japan?
If CIJ, the R + 0 + 5 digits = 2004-5

Depending on where you a based, would probably be easiest to do a search on completed eBay listings.
