The 1999 Stagemaster V1 was NEVER made in HHH
Three reference support this:

1. Tony Bacon's book on Squier guitars.

http://www.amazon.com/Squier-Electrics-Fenders-Budget-Guitar/dp/1617130222

2. The Squier history PDF published by Woodbright Video:

3. Fender Customer Service has no record of a 1999 HHH (or ANY Stagemaster maded in HHH).

Any Stagemaster in HHH has to be a custom modification and not a factory model. The 1999 STagemaster has a plastic pickguard which makes custom pickup modification easy. For example, here is my 1999 Stagemaster with custom German Shado pickups:

I removed all references to the HHH configuration.‘72.15.66.104 (talk) 14:23, 25 April 2014 (UTC)’

I added the V1minor version designations and the Sub-Sonic V6 model.

Feb 2019. I added the color numbers for the V1 models and expanded the history section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aoresteen (talk • contribs) 18:40, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

Seven String V1 neck
While I support the classifications, for simple understanding, there is no link or ref showing this 'Seven String neck 1.7'. Sadly, this text should be removed until a link/photo can be provided as proof. I am a fellow collector of Stagemaster/Showmasters, as I imagine those on this page are. I own V1, V2, V2.7, V4 Deluxe and a Fender Korean nicknamed 'Korean Custom Shop Stagemaster'.. but that's really just a set-neck Strat, as it doesn't have the reverse headstock or Floyd Rose tremolo.. while there is definitely consensus that we should use the 'version system', which probably wouldn't be allowed on other wiki pages.. but again I too agree with it's use. The Seven String V1 without proof is a step too far for me. I honestly hope it exists and that the wiki editor provides a link showing this. But until then I believe the text should be removed.
