virpotaajs..yes its true, i hav 1 too.. JV wif serial no. at neck plate..it is 57' model.. awesome.. black color, 1 pis maple neck.. really Fender twangy tone..cool..
I played a 87 Squier the other day, and I wouldn't have said it was better than my MIM Fender. It grew on me, but I still wouldn't say it was that much better.
Hi! I own a squier strat and I really wanna know how can I tell when was it made? It is from my old man and he has had it for about 25 years (not quite sure one year more or less)... so I'm guessing it should be around 84"... it has a silver squier logo it says stratocaster under that made in japan and udner that by fender... THE SERIAL NUMBER STARTS with E + 6 digit number... well E533159... could you help me out?
Greetings, E prefix serial indicates a build date of 1984 to 1987. For years I was told it was 1984 but I have since found it was used on many models during the Fender transition (84-87)from CBS to the Shultz group. I have one and love mine.
just bought a nineties p serial number squier strat bit beat up paid £30 sounds awesome i own a mexican fat strat deluxe series but im keeping the squier it has the sound
Hi, I´m thinking of buying a Squier MIJ Strat. DO you think it´s a real cool guitar. The serial number teh guy gave me is P026XXX. Do you know if it´s from around 95/96? Shouldn´t i hesitate to buy? Thanks
dude just put a stacked humbucker in there like a coolrail by s.d., that's what I did and it works and sounds great without having to mod anything.good luck
I am not sure, mine is P but same year as yours. But mine has a maple board. N,O,P and Q are all 93 - 94 made by fujigen. There isnt enough info on these. I swear its just a proper fender neck with a squier decal.

How much in euro's is it worth like? I have a Fender Classic Series '50s Telecaster (MIM) and might want to trade it with this MIJ.

Best squier(made in japan) Strat is made from 82" to 84" And from late 84" to 86" 80% of Fender was from Japan !
Acctually they are better then USA made..

I have a Squier stratocaster MIJ, serial N (then 6 digits)
anyone know what year it would be?
chrism3039 3 years ago
squier strat?
I own a Silver Series edition with serial N too, nothing to do with the squier series.
In my case its around 1992-1993.
KillBloodRaven 3 years ago
Normally the letter is a decade code. N : 1990.
The first digit after is what year in the 90´.
Ex N3 is from 1993.

The '93 Squire is like the Japanese Fender... the new Squire is not a very good guitar...:(
simonegbr95 3 years ago
no its not, its lame. a mexican standard or protone squier are far better.

Marcoshary - the strat which you want to buy is from 93/94 made in japan. I own a japanese squier (P serial) and it's a really good guitar.

can i instal some Dirty Fingers Humbucker Pickup on my squier STRAT
020fox 4 years ago
dude,you can probably put any pickup you wanted in it.
rockerdude29 3 years ago
yes, although installing humbuckers on all single coil strats is always difficult.
soundwrks 3 years ago
Most strats have a bigger bridge pickup cavity to fit humbuckers. Just replace the pickguard and solder in the humbucker.

I just got a '93 mij squier aswell, the neck is amazing. What letter serial does youres carry? Tom
ForSunday 4 years ago
Yes, the neck is amazing and I even like the pickups (especially the neck and middle).
Amazing for this price tag.
The serial begins with a "N" followed by 6 digits. Does this mean anything important?
dmihos 4 years ago
I am not sure, mine is P but same year as yours. But mine has a maple board. N,O,P and Q are all 93 - 94 made by fujigen. There isnt enough info on these. I swear its just a proper fender neck with a squier decal.
ForSunday 4 years ago
Actually the serial do have a meaning...
the country they were made and the current year.
check out wikipedia "squier" it says a lot including this.
