Nice man.
I was initially pining for a honey blonde 50s to which I'd add a tort pickguard but it seems nigh impossible to get a guard that will fit so thinking I'll go for that black/maple Standard and get a black pickguard and replace the pickups with BKPs

Plenty of people make custom plates. Do a forum search as it comes up a lot

And what type of physical condition your in also matters.If a guy is sporting a huge arse there's going to be some limitations.

Get a full cash refund. We've seen plenty of examples of stores closing in recent years and vouchers/credit being worthless.

Here'a link to a recently sold one. The differences show.

Your body has the earthing strip which suggests 62 RI. The ONLY way to confirm this is to take the neck off. The pocket should have something like JB62 LP.
Assuming it is a 62 RI, the neck should also have an extra strap button on the back of the headstock (some call this a hootenany button I believe).

Yep on both points

My Japanese Squier has truss rod adjustment at the heel.
I didn't think any Japanese reissues had it at the headstock.

Jap 70s reissues do,

Ok thanks for all your help with this so far everyone. So basically this is not all genuine MIJ should I be entitled to a full refund from PMT as I purchased under the pretences that this was a genuine MIJ 1995? What proof can I show them to back up my claim guys?

I had one too, bought from the late mr oldgit- totally agree about the logo and butt end adjustment. Mine had non original tuners so can't comment on those
You can buy these from various sources, including direct from China - for the money I'd say it was good value even for the parts alone - let us know how it works out

He was testing blocks of perspex and one recipe batch wouldn't set - he threw those in a pile and found a few minutes later that they had stuck together - the first intended use was on the battlefield gluing wounds together to keep them clean till a proper exam could be done - when I cut my face they stuck the edges together with glue

That's so last Millenia - I have the totally up to date DVD
I think in very small doses it's ok but I'm not rushing to learn it
