Pretty new to the forum, just would like to share a recent deal i picked up over the weekend..

looks to be a 96 mim strat. but it doesn't have an anniversary badge on it so maybe it was made in 95 or 97... serial number indicated 96 though..MN6124613

it has an awesome feeling neck on it and i couldn't pass it up.. $130 with gig bag.

if i can be advised how to put a picture on here, i will so gladly if anyones browsing this and interested..

Take care.

Congrats on the new to you Strat. On the MIM serial numbers the prefix usually changes over sometime in the middle of the year, so for example MN6xxxxxx serial numbers would run from approximately July of 1996 to June of 1997 (give or take a month or so); if your Strat doesn't have the "50th Anniversary of Fender" badge it was likely made in the first half of 1997.

To post photos you have to upload them to a hosting site of some kind like photobucket.

A buck thirty is rock bottom low priced. I hope you gave it a good demo through an amp before buying it. Most of the ones I see for under $200 are fixer-uppers. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Just sayin'...
