Cheers mate here’s a few more.Wow, great find! My money's on June 86 based on this one in the link having a lower serial and Feb 86 pots. If your pots haven't been swapped out they should tell us.

I have always been uncomfortable with this guitar and really need more data points. It always seemed to me that it may have been modified as evidenced by the neck plate being upside down.Wow, great find!

Thanks for that, any idea of its value as it is and with original hard case.With those pickups, it looks like a TST50 base plus 5 for the color plus 5 for the headstock, so it ends up being a TST60.
I would call it a TST50 +5 +5.
Do you have a picture of the pots? The one ATO linked is an outlier and I was hoping to find more data points as the numbering system changed in early 1986.
Thanks and congratulations.
I think that is a shim.And no idea why it has that stain on the end of the neck where there may have been a shim?
Also has that mysterious "V" mark.
