Hi guys,

I need some history clarification on my guitar.
I have a 1991-1992 MIM Fender Stratocaster which plays and sound really GREAT!
The neck aged well as it's roughly a 23 years old guitar.

When I dismantled everything, I noticed a SQUIER stamp on the neck pocket.
I did a bit of a research, and found some stuffs about a Fender MIM Squire Series, but didn't really get a clear info of whether there was a swap of parts? or is this guitar a LEGIT MIM strat made from Ensenada plant?

Here's some pics.

Fender did have Squier production in Mexico back then. So that body was originally intended for a Squier. The good news for you is that the body and the neck were actually made in the Corona USA factory. Painted and assembled in the Mexican factory.

I have what is supposed to be a '91 USA stratocaster. The neck pocket also has the SQUIER stamp. Could this be the same issue? (a USA Squier body that ended up being something else). I bought this used strat and I freaked out when I saw the squier stamp! HELP!

You could definitely have the same issue. Fenders out of Mexico in the 90s were a mish mash of everything. For a while they couldn't carve bodies or necks, or they used parts from Korea, Japan, wherever.
