Guitar identification help needed please

Bought my daughter an older electric guitar this weekend, and cannot figure out what kind it is. Looks a lot like a Fender and in fact, the pickguard and control layout looks like a Strat I know it's not a Strat..had a 60's model once upon a time. (missing one control knob here) however the cord plugs into the side of the body, not the top and the peg stock is the wrong style. close to a Peavey or even an Ibanez but the serial number is 7 digits long and starts with the number 9, not a letter. The 5 pickups are throwing me too. It has the Fender sound to it, solid body, but the tips are sharper than most Fenders too. I can really use some help here. Really don't want to pull the neck on it.

It probably had a decal on the peg stock and I think the little round emblem is something a PO put on it.
Take a look at the pics and see if you can help.
