That's an MIM isn't it???

Edit: A quick google reveals it has the same logo as an MIM but the serial number seems to have disappeared. I wonder how an MIJ serial has appeared?

[size=4]Hi, the serial number says its crafted in Japan 2004-2005. [url="http://www.fender.com/en-GB/support/articles/japanese-instruments-product-dating/"]http://www.fender.com/en-GB/support/articles/japanese-instruments-product-dating/[/url][/size]

I could well be wrong but I thought the more recent MIJs had spaghetti logos like yours (except the RIs).

I don`t recall seeing MIMs in this colour scheme so maybe it`s a bitsa - CIJ body, MIM neck - hence serial number "scrubbing".

[size=4]Hi, the serial number is on the back of the neck close to the body so I would have thought it is a CIJ neck, presuming everything is above board. I have messaged the seller and asked if it says crafted in Japan next to the serial. No reply as yet...[/size]
