I bought a '52 RI from a guy online, and everything looks correct. However, the neck has a date of 1997 and the neck pocket has a date for 2001. Has anyone seen or heard of this before? If not, I'll assume it was built from parts. No big deal, it was cheap.

Email the serial # to Fender Customer Relations and they'll tell you exactly when it was made. Just look in the contact page of this site.

These don't come with serial numbers like other Teles. The 3-saddle bridge is stamped with a number, but this one only has the 6-saddle bridge. Therefore, no serial #. I have an email in to Fender, but as usual, no response yet.
