I know I know you want pictures....as soon as I learn how to I will post them. Just got this a few days ago and I was curious to look under the back plate because I had an intonation issue. That got fixed. But when I opened the back cover I discovered a marking inside 70 W in heavy back...any ideas on what that means. it is not a true 50th addition, but still very nice aged cherry burst, awesome condition for a 10 year old guitar and plays great...for a newbie.

Hi there I am not sure what it means but I can say it is not unusual.
I have seen that number and 72 on strats around that time and that I have had and I am sure there are more numbers as well ! :D

No idea what it means but will take a guess...
the letter is an initial... and the preceding number is how many fret levels that particular worker managed to botch up to that point on the production line...
kind of a running tally on the ones that made it thru QC...
Who knows!?!?
