cakeston Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 [b]Well Done a bit of research, so here goes. . . .[/b] When initially launched in Europe in the early 1980s the Squier range offered classic reproductions of Fender's most popular models: '57 and '62 Stratocasters, '57 and '62 Precision Basses, '52 Telecasters and '62 Jazz Bass. These were made in the Fuji Gen Gakki factory in Japan - then also used by Ibanez - using original factory blueprints. These early Squiers are referred to as "JV Squiers" due to those two letters being the prefix on the serial number stamped on the neck plate that stand for "Japanese Vintage". Initial shipments to Europe had Fender's logo in large script on the headstock with a small "Squier Series" decal but quickly this gave way to a large Squier logo with a small "by Fender" decal. These early JVs are extremely accurate reproductions of the classic models and are highly sought by guitar collectors, especially in Europe. [b]Not trying to teach Grandma to suck eggs or anything but mine is definitely one of these. . . . . . any last offers?[/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazy Bass Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Terrific looking bass. The early 80s Squiers were great instruments - just wish I'd bought one myself at the time! Seriously tempted but I'd have to sell something first. Whereabouts are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazy Bass Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Do you still have the Delano pup? And out of interest, why did you change it, and how did it compare to the SD, or to the original? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
