93-94 Squier P MiJ - Is this right..?

[DoubleOhStephan]

Not sure if this is wrong, but I can't recall ever seeing a sunburst Fender or Squier where the burst isn't continued on the rear. 

I've done a quick search for the serial number and it's correct, I'm just not sure if it's a replacement body..?

That bridge is not a Squier / Fender!

Didn't even notice the bridge. So do you reckon its a replacement body too?

Could be a refin'. Looks suspiciously pristine for a MIJ Squier, which are getting on a bit now.

According to the Guitar Dating website, it's 93-94, but tbh, this bass is all sorts of wrong for me

Looks like a relative of this one on a previous thread. It suffers from similar jiggery pokery.

I'd be prepared to say it's a genuine MIJ Squier neck - as far as I can see the tuners are the Gotoh GB1types frequently used by Fujigen, would be odd to use them on a stickered-up cheapo. Don't think that 7-screw bridge was ever used on anything associated with Fender though, and the black-back body looks pretty suss - would expect it to be ply.

Bitsa, I'd say.

Aye, that's exactly what I was thinking 👍🏻
