NGD: A series Squier Stratocaster

[stratmanshow]

I wrote this so that there would be errors in dating, And the series was incorrectly dated as 1985-1986, although the correct date is 1983-1986, this is corrected now.

I see. As has been said many times, nothing is for certain with early MIJ guitars. For example the JV Fenders and Squiers were numbered differently but both started with JV. The ST-72 was also numbered differently with many starting with JV0xxxx.
It seems you have discovered that the A serial was different as well. The red SST shown here at 21 frets has a low A000475 serial but a neck date of Oct 31 84, a long time after yours. It's possible then that the CST started early using a higher A0 number while the SST was still a JV.

But anything goes in this period. I have a JV4xxxxx which should be around March 83 but my neck is dated Aug 82, and the pots are stamped "20K" from around May 82.
Lots of fun

Nice! Show some more.
Interesting, you have very early dated pots on yours too.
