Fender Squier Jazz Bass Serial Numbers Indonesia

I purchased a black 'Made in Indonesia' Squier P Bass by Fender, with a black pickguard that has a serial number starting with 'PN.'

It has 'Licensed by Schaller' (Typical P Bass looking) machine heads on it and no skunk stripe on the back of the neck.

Can you tell me about this guitar based on it's 'irregular' or 'odd' serial number starting with PN?

By the way, the bass handles and sounds great! I intend to purchase another bass, but I'll hold onto this one too. I like it!

From everything I have read, a Squier P-Bass with a PN serial number was genuine, and made in Indonesia in the mid-to-late 1990's.

Not made for import into the US, and probably made in the Cort factory.

Worth $75 to $100, in really great shape.

Thanks Sparky2..
I appreciate the timely response to my question. I'm going to do a hands on comparison of my bass to a new Squier and experience the quality differences if any. Surprisingly, it feels and sounds great. It's a keeper. I spent a buck-twenty for it.. I'm cool with that.

If possible Sparky2, could you share an info. source or two about the PN serial number basses.

Thanks again.

RelativePitch56,

I searched a variety of internet web forums yesterday, and this was the one that revealed the most information: http://forums.fender.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=94282

Read all the way down to the very bottom response.

Here is the link to the OP's photo bucket images: http://s1369.photobucket.com/user/Baumer32/library/?sort=3&page=1

On further thought, if yours is in good shape, I may have low-balled the value. I looked in the Blue Book of electric guitar values just now, and you paid a very fair price.

Some models of used Squiers actually go for more than $200 or $250, but those are made in Korea or Mexico.

Sparky2,
Thank you for another stealth response of very helpful information.

Right now the bass is at the repair shop getting a set up. I've got a new truss rod coming (neck adjustment needed, old rod is stripped), a red tortoise pickguard (swapping out the black one), shiny, new screws all the way around (originals are corroded) and of course a new set of strings.

The tortoise pickguard is my way of cheaply creating a new look, without paying for a sunburst paint job.

When I get it back, I will post new pics displaying the head and serial number, etc.

Thanks much

Fender Squier Jazz Bass Serial Numbers

My Red Tortoise Shell Pickguard came today! It's on and I'm Loving it! Got a neck adjustment, no buzzing, feels great, sounds awesome.

I forgot to mention that this bass has a seal on the back that says 'CELEBRATING 50 YEARS'.. 'Tears of Excellence'
1946 - 1996. I really like the feel and sound of this bass.. It's a keeper.

The serial number is PN600231 I don't know what the P in PN means but the N most likely (according to how Squier serial numbers work) means 'nineties' and the 6 most likely is the year it was made.. 1996. As you will see on the photos, It says 'made in Indonesia,' right on the headstock.

Attached are pics of my bass & serial number with the new pickguard on it.

Here is a good pic of 'Made In Indonesia' on my P-Bass headstock.

Oh yeah, here's a pick of my guitar. It's a Gretsch G5422TDC Electromatic Hollowbody Electric Guitar.

Oh man, that is a gorgeous bass guitar now!

It looks good with the black pick guard, but WOW, it looks really stunning with the new one on.
Very nice!

And your Gretsch is a real beauty.

Thanks Sparky2, I am really happy with the new look a simple pickguard change made to this Bass.

Now I'm really thinking about a 'Badass' bridge for it. Compare automatic and manual cars torrent.

I wonder if a new bridge will help open-string and harmonic tuning readings with an electronic tuner. Maybe with a new bridge the strings will vibrate better and the open and harmonic readings will match?

What do you think Sparky2?

RelativePitch56,

I have read where the Badass bridge can help with some problems experienced by the owners of Gibson basses, but most Fender bass owners (and Squier too of course) report that the Badass bridge really didn't do anything for them.

It's your call, of course.

I would do a lot of homework on that before ordering one.

Hey there,
I bought a Squier Affinity Strat last Dec. and on checking the serial number I got this from Google.
Indonesian Squiers
IC: I = Indonesia, C = Cor-Tek (Cort), the serial number prefix is followed by a 2 number year. IS: I = Indonesia, S = Samick, the serial number prefix is followed by a 2 number year. For example 'IC02' Made in 2002. In 2009-10 some Indonesian Squier's had the prefix ICS09XXXXX and ICS10XXXXX. There are a number of standard models that have the ICS prefix some are FSR but some are just normal run models. It therefore appears as though the the S in ICS is only an indication as to whether it is a Factory Special Run or FSR guitar (manufactured by Cor-Tek in Indonesia). It also appears likely that any FSR guitar beginning with ICS will be a Squier 'Standard' as opposed to any of the other models i.e. CV, Deluxe etc.

My serial number is ICS10207241 so I know the year, but is there any other way I can determine the difference between a Standard and Affinity?
Thanks

Some Squiers that are sold only in the Chinese and Asian markets, starting with usually the serial number
CXS: the 'X' stands for 'Axl'.
so it says on the website above
