COMMENTS
Only guitars made at Cort factory (IC serial number) had the skunk stripe and truss rod black plastic insert at the Nut. Guitars made at Samick factory (SI serial number) lacked skunk stripe and black insert
A few guitars made in 2002 had the commemorative neck plate “20th anniversary Squier BY FENDER Freedom of Expression Since 1982”
Even though other Bullet Stratocasters were included in the Bullet Series, these units made between 2000 and 2006 were listed in the Affinity Series
 
FENDER SAYS
Our Bullet is a simple, affordable and practical guitar designed for beginners and students. Bullet Series guitars feature a laminated hardwood body, chrome covered tuners, 21-fret maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and a hard- tail bridge. The Bullet features three single-coil pickups and five way switching.
