Squier '51 2004
I picked up this Squier '51 from 2004-5 on FB Marketplace for $40. I've always like the looks of these guitars but never did much research until now. Not sure what I have going on here. Looks to be a Squier '51 body and maybe a Squier Strat neck? I'm going to wire it up, throw some strings on it and see what it sounds like.
Things I've noticed:
The bridge humbucker pickup looks like a replacement.
______________________________
The neck is not original. Squier Strat neck but I'm not 100% sure what this is from? The previous owner said he added the Fender logo?!
______________________________
The tuners are poorly installed replacements. I also don't like the black.
______________________________
There are no markings anywhere in the neck pocket or body.
______________________________
The control plate was poorly drilled to accommodate the Gibson three way toggle. I may replace this once i figure out a knob/switch arrangement.

Someone fill a previous rout with couple wood blocks & epoxy. Going to leave that alone.
