Do the markings in the neck pocket have any meaning?

I can figure out what the "SFC-STD" means (Surfcaster Standard) but does the "1-2" have any significance?

Yeah, it means something.... Maybe there are several variants to that specific model... I have no clue though. Earlier model series as well as toothpaste and later MIJs have a wide variety of stamps from people's names, initials, numbers, sometimes weird scribblings. Far more variance than USAs, from what I've seen...

What's this about toothpaste?

Oh, and thanks for the info.

Ah, google research shows me that "toothpaste" refers to the logo. It's the one that doesn't look like a guitar.

Sorry, I'm a noob.
