Quite curious about this myself, mostly for being unable to put it to the test as a lefty. When I walk into a store I should be happy if they even have a Squier I can play. It's been 15 years since I last played a Mexican Standard Jazz Bass and I've NEVER played a recent US-made Fender Bass in my life. I have owned several MIJ and CIJ Fenders and Squiers, but buying two very recent US-made Fender g**t*rs recently has changed my perception on the brand somewhat - I still think they're overpriced but they're really, really good.
FSR can be anything with Fender, be it Mex, Jap or US. I recall a cool MIM Jazz Bass in natural ash which were well-received, and several US models in limited edition finishes (like Sea Foam Green). What do you have?
