    I have what appears to be a Chinese-Made Bullet made in or after 2005, with a serial number beginning with NC with 6 digits.

    (I can upload a picture to the page admins if they are interested)

    It is black, the body material appears to be Basswood, given the chips in the finish reminding me of when I chipped my late 80s early 90s Ibanez 540 Radius. The fretboard radius is most likely 10"

    The neck material is maple, but the fingerboard is Rosewood.
    It has a six point trem, and two string guides, and it has "BULLET series" on the face of the headstock.

    Per the wikipedia page here, it seems to be consistent with that series of guitars made in china

    " 2005–present
    Squier introduced a new, Chinese-made Bullet Strat in 2005, sporting a built-in tremolo arm, rosewood fingerboard, and one of six body finishes (Pink, Arctic White, Daphne Blue, Fiesta Red, Brown Sunburst, or Black) with a single-ply white pickguard"

    All of that is consistent with my Bullet.

    Has anyone confirmed one with a maple neck as this page describes?

      Correction, I figured out what my Squier Bullet is. It is an NC serial number, Built in China, most likely a 1994 model.
