Need help ID'ing this guitar. Strat from China, has Standard on the head. Cant find this anywhere
All the information is there, it’s a Chinese made Squier Standard Stratocaster. Here’s how to read the serial number from http://www.squierwiki.com/Serial-Number-Tracking Chinese & Taiwanese Squiers CA (“Made in China”, “Crafted in China”) - The first number following the serial number prefix is the year. CAE (“Made in China” - may not be on all models) - The first 2 numbers following the prefix Is the year. 10-digit number. Example: CAE-08xxxxxxxx = made in 2008 YN (“Made in China”) - Y = Yako (Taiwan), N = Nineties (1990s), the first numbers following the prefix is the year. 6-digit number. Example: YN5xxxxx = made by Yako in 1995. CY (“Crafted in China”) - C = China, Y = Yako (Taiwan), the first number following the prefix is the year. 8-digit number. Example: CY2xxxxxxx = made by Yako in 2002-03 COS (“Crafted in China”) – The first 2 numbers following the prefix is the year. 8-digit number. Example: COS10xxxxxx = 2010 COB (“Crafted in China”) – The first 2 numbers following the prefix is the year. 9-digit number. The plant from which the COB serial number prefix models originate remains a mystery. No documentation, or comment from the manufacturer has resolved the question of which plant produced them. Example: COB09xxxxxxx CD, CT, CJ (“Made in China”, “Crafted in China”) - C = China, the first number following the prefix is the year. Probably made by Yako (Taiwan). NC (“Made in China”) – The first number following the prefix is the year. 6-digit number. Example: NC8xxxxx = 2008 CXS (Crafted in China) – X = Axl, The first number following the prefix is the year. 9-digit number. Example CXS07xxxxxxx = 2007 CGRL (“Crafted in China”) – The first 2 numbers following the prefix is the year. 8-digit number. Example: CGRL09xxxxxx = 2009 CGS (“Crafted in China”) – The first 2 numbers following the prefix is the year. 7 or 8- digit number. Example: CGS10xxxxxx = 2010 More on reddit.com

r/Guitar on Reddit: Dating my Squier Jagmaster
November 3, 2013 -

Hi guys! I was fooling around trying to decode what year my Squier Jagmaster was, and I found that its serial number is odd... It is ''s/n CY50212144''. The Squier Wikipedia page states the following:

''CY: C = China, Y = Yako (Taiwan), the serial number prefix is followed by a 2 number year.

For example

"CY97" = made by Yako in 1997. CY, COS, or COB serials are usually used on Crafted in China Squiers. Some Chinese made Gretsch guitars also have a CY serial number.''

The two following numbers after CY corresponds to the year of making, but I doubt that my guitar was made in 1950| Haha! Perhaps it's a 2005? Bought it used, so I don't know! Anyone have any clue? Thanks a bunch!
