I was wondering if there is a link to information on Squier serial numbers like Fender has for the Strats and other instrements.

I'm curious to see when my Squier Strat was made and what model it is.

I could not find a link on teh Squier site under resorces like it is here on the main Fender site.

Anyone know where I can find this info?

Thank you,

As it turns out my Squire is a 2002. Now my next question is.....how can I find out what model it is?

Is there a site like that that desribes how the MIM Strat serial numbers break down?

I'd like to know how to tell what year a MIM was made by just looking at the number (like you can with the Squier Strats) so when I'm out trolling the guitar shops I can tell what year the MIM is before I consider buying it.

I am not sure how to tell which model it it. For the Fender there is Guitar Dater Project:

http://www.guitardaterproject.org/fender.aspx

Just type in the SN. Also there is this website that breaks down how to read thm as well:

http://www.fender.com/support/mexican_instruments.php

Hope this helps you out.

Thank you. That helps out alot.

I took a look at the MIM numbers and I see how they break down so now I can go to a shop and know what year it is just be the number.

That dater project is a great tool. Especially for older MIA's. Some years don't follow an equation that will tell you the date just by looking at it.
