A Squier guitar from 1993 belongs to whichever era was running on its product line that year. An era is a stretch when the company that controlled the name and the plant that built the line both stayed the same. If you know the line, the table below tells you which version of Squier you have. The name dates from 1890^{[S447, S449]}, 103 years before.
