Re: Noob here, but I got some pics...
The date stamp on my strad is inside the body on the back at kind of an angle. I had never seen it but my luthier found it by doing some jiggling with a small pencil light through the f-holes. Just a thought. It's a pretty instrument regardless -- welcome to the world of strads!
At the top of the page under the masthead should be a bunch of options and one is 'social groups.' you might try there for the strad-o-lin group.
