A lot of fender guitars/basses are made in Indonesia and Mexico. Hell, some of the best fenders ever made were made in Japan and are highly sought after.
Same thing with Gibson. The others I don’t have any knowledge of.
I am specifically referring to the American made instruments. OP did not ask about the Japan, Mexico and Indonesia made, which are at this point undeniably well made.
American made guitars are still some of the best. Fender, Gibson, PRS, Collings and more. All USA made and BIFL.
PS: Ukuleles from Hawaii (the “k” brands).
And on a much cheaper note, American drumsticks. They’re not a buy it for life dealio, though. Unless you’re really, really, really gentle.
Ernie Ball Music Man as well

Your last sentence makes it seem like you’re saying they’re all USA made, which they are not.
