Is this a Fender?

I've never saw this as one of Fenders. The seller says it has the Fender logo and a s/number. Is it a knock off?
thanks

First off, the string action looks too low for it to be a lap steel. Looks like an Asian-made backpack guitar that someone slapped a Fender logo on although I don't think the aftermarket decals usually include a serial number.

That never came from a Fender factory of any type. It's a cheap Asian made travel guitar with a fake Fender decal on the headstock.

Or you could save $120 and buy this authentic Magnatone for $300! To be fair the Seller mentioned some wear "towards the bottom"

Adjustable bridge. Terrific. Now you can really screw up your intonation.
