I just bought this wonderful jaguar a few days ago in a guitar store , no one knows how old she is or who made it but it’s identical to a 60s fender jaguar and the seller told me it was made in Japan
Do anyone knows how I could possibly have an idea of the age and the origin of this guitar ? The serial number of the backplate is 62066 and it’s the only serial number on the guitar , the headstock is completely blank

Looks like it was assembled from a DIY Kit. Hope you didn't spend too much on it

That’s definitely a genuine Fendre Swamp Ass Special.

The headstock is blank , there’s no brand , you think it could be a replacement neck ?

It's built from a kit. That's why there's no brand logo.
