I went to this web site and the result was that the serial number was "unrecognized" You might have to contact Fender directly for an answer to your question. Here's the web site where I searched your serial number. http://www.guitardaterproject.org/fender.aspx

When they exhausted the 5 digit numbers, they added a 6th.

If you really want to know when the parts were made, take it apart and look at the dates that may be stamped/written on parts. There are date codes on the volume/tone pots too.
