I couldn't find a place to date body stamps on the Fender site. If you know where that is, let me know, but can anyone read these stamps enough to know if the body is Fender or Squire, particular model, or country of origin, etc.? It's part of a Frankenbass I'm checking out. Thanks!

Really don't recall seeing router stabilization holes in the neck pocket on any Fender before. I also don't think that pickguard goes with that body.

Interesting, BroDave. Here's a shot of the body. The strings go through the body, if that helps identify it at all. The neck is a 2011 Jazz American Special.

Presumably the seller's flash or overhead lighting.
