Hello,

I'm looking for some historical info about this JB I plan to buy (used of course)

It's a MIM V serial MZ5 followed by 6 (six) digits.
On Fender date page there is no mention of this (the number scheme only proposes MZ5 + 5 digits)

I find no mention of a 5 strings in the MIM 60's serie on Fender site

I'm about to buy it.... any advices on this serie warmly welcomed.

Thanks in advance

Luc

I can't tell you much of anything, but I can tell you this comes up a lot, the MZ#+6 digits as opposed to MZ#+5 digits in the serial number. It seems to be common enough, and is not necessarliy an indicator of it being a fake. I'm not sure, but it may just be some kind of an error on Fender's part.
