Would you be able to tell me what the name fender gave it so I can look into other finishes etc?

here is a serial number R58482

I have sent fender consumer relations this number too.

or

would you know what other cs strats have a rosewood finger board, 9.5 or above radius and a soft v shape neck?

thanks again, Mike.

The MN version features an Eric Clapton neck with 22 jumbo frets.

I think the Big Bell Stratocaster is capable to deliver all the familiar Clapton tones from the 1969-1985 period.
