@LeftyJ Sorry for taking so long. I took the neck off again and these are the only other markings I could find. As you can see the neck socket is painted over.

Thanks LeftyJ I'll have another look when I get back home. The neck pocket was painted over, I actually forgot examine the underside of the heel in my haste.

Hello folks. I have an old Japanese Squier Precision. I don't really know much about the bass, it's had a lot of work done on it by the previous owner. When I bought the bass a few years ago the seller informed me that he had owned the bass since the mid 80's. In the years the seller possessed the bass he'd had it refinished, refretted, rewired, pickups swapped out, put a vintage bridge on etc. The seller also added a numbered neck plate and a fake headstock decal, essentially disguising the instrument as an old vintage US Bass. I love this bass. The neck is an A type(not sure if that's the correct term?) which is slim like a Jazz neck, it's very comfortable to play, and it's just a great sounding instrument. It came with a set of flats on, which the previous owner claimed hadn't been changed in years. But I've also had rounds on it briefly and they sounded fab too. I recently contemplated selling this bass, I hesitantly put it up on a local adverts site. I've had a lot of questions, as expected. One potential buyer asked if I could post a picture of the neck stamp, so I took the neck off and snapped a photo. I was told that this stamp and truss rod were not what would normally be expected on a JV Squier. So, I've looked around online and I can't find any info about this topic. I'm hoping that some Basschat folks can help with this?
