Hi Peter....SQ13200 relates to the following details

Guitar Info
Your guitar was made at the
Fuji-gen Plant (for Fender Japan), Japan
in the Year(s): 1985 - 1986



Fuji String Instrument Production Corporation
Fuji String Instrument Production Corporation was opened in may 1960, they initially started manufacturing violins and quickly switched to classical guitar production. In 1962 electric guitar construction was started. Fujigen has a reputation for excellent quality and craftsmanship so the guitars they produce are highly regarded. They produce guitars via OEM for famous brands such as Ibanez, Epiphone, Yamaha and Fender (the import Special Interest Group nature model), G&L and others.


However, the following site differs, and is the one quoted by Stratmanshow

Serial Number
Approx Date of Manufacture
"Made in Japan" followed by:

JV + 5 digits 1982 - 1984
SQ + " 1983 - 1984

The above is the "Official Fender Site"
