I think I remember seeing 2009 stamped in the neck pocket but it's been a little while and it doesn't show up in the Fender serial number lookup (MZ9440866) This is a fine example of a made in Mexico Fender Strat but with a humbucker in the bridge. I've only had it for a short time but that is not a reflection of it's quality. I've just decided to make my own guitars and Strats haven't really been my cup of tea. Everything looks original and it's in pretty good shape with the exception of a dent on the fretboard that doesn't effect playability. I did put new strings (D'Addario 10s) on it and cleaned it up nicely then played it for maybe 4-5 hours total. No trades.
I live up in the Sierras but get down to Lincoln (Rocklin/Roseville area) every so often and I can arrange a trip down with the guitar if I have a serious buyer.
