Hey jujuboy! Sorry to hear about the problems man hope you`re ok? Anyhow, thanks for the advice dude and I`ll certainly bear them in mind. I`m in the UK by the way and have quite a few Fender stockists locally so will pop in and have a look when I`ve time. Can`t say I`m really an electric kinda guy, I just get by and no more, I`m mainly an electro acoustic player but have just bought the G-DEC and it`s relit my fire with the strat! It`s a very cool peice of kit! Being able to sound ROUGHLY like your idols is so cool! I had a Tanglwood 15w practice amp before, no pedal, no effects so was very limited, but with the G-DEC there`s the different amps, effects and stuff! I`ve added my own amp sounds to it so I`m at least now able to choose between amp sounds! Have a great day and keep the faith!

I have read all posts and I have just bought a fender squier strat apparently made in Korea but with the serial number M2833501. I cannot find any confirming evidence about the guitar as m- Mexican, so a little stumped. Has anyone had any more info as it would be greatly appreciated.

Korean Squiers
CN/VN: C = Cor-Tek (Cort), V = Saehan(Sunghan), S was already taken by Samick so Saehan(Sunghan) used V instead (Saehan(Sunghan) made the Vester guitars), N = Nineties (1990s), the first number following the serial number prefix is the year.
For example
"CN5" = made by Cor-Tek (Cort) in 1995.
"VN5" = made by Saehan(Sunghan) in 1995.
KC/KV: KC (Korean Cor-Tek (Cort)) and KV (Korean Saehan(Sunghan)), the serial number prefix is followed by a 2 number year.
For example
"KC97" = made by Cor-Tek (Cort) in 1997.
"KV97" = made by Saehan(Sunghan) in 1997.
KC and KV serial number prefixes are usually used on Crafted in Korea Squiers.
S/E: The S and E serial number prefix Korean Squiers are from the late 1980s/early 1990s. S = Samick, E = Young Chang, E letter serial numbers were used on Young Chang's Fenix brand guitars.[4] The first number following the serial number prefix is the year.
The first guitars made ​​in Korea are those with serial number written in silver E1 + 6 digits
For example
"E1 + 6 digits with silver serial = made by Samick in 1987-88.
"S9" = made by Samick in 1989.
"E0" = made by Sung-Eum in 1990.
"E1" with black serial = made by Sung-Eum in 1991.
There were also Korean Squier serials with no serial number prefix and 6 or 7 numbers and the first number is the year. Some early 90's examples held a serial number with the prefix M followed by 7 numerals, featured the a high gloss maple neck with a slimmer 40mm body made from plywood.
