I don't know. These '54s were supposed to be two-piece with an offset seam, but it is very well matched if it is, and looks like one-piece.

Either way, it's a gorgeous instrument! Actually they both are.

Lastly, and enough from me, a '62 in Fiesta Red. I had owned a new Strat in '62 (yes I'm old) and had sold it for a pittance in the late 60s to fund something else. Stupid, but then, who knew! Anyway, after retiring in 2010 I got to thinking about a "replacement." Couldn't afford an original, of course, so I spoke to a dealer...and ordered this as a Team Built, with a few little tweaks from an original. It has '65 neck carve, because I liked the neck on the LPB '65, 9.5 radius, round-lam board with med. jumbo frets, and Abby hand wound pickups. It arrived in 2012...so 50 years on from my original '62. Photo isn't brilliant, but it will do...
