Hello to everybody !! I` am new in this place and i would like to make some questions

about this quitar.

I`am interesting in buying a custom shop`65 strat without any certificate ,and i would

like to help me find the age first of all of the guitar !!!

The serial number is R 51002 .

At the following photo there is the backside of the neck where is the signature of john cruz when he was a QA.

At the number 722514 does "7" shows the year??Finally the custom shop on the headstock is stamped



At the next photo with the body there is a date about jul 26 2005? 2009?Is this

the date of body construction??



I found and other 65 strats with serial R+5 digits ,but without the logo stamp?what do you think is happening hear???Thank you guys!!!

The body is 65 CC ,is there possible as a closet classic to have different dates the body and the neck??
