best thing to do is get a serial number and email customer relations. They are very prompt and great at providing any info you need on a guitar.

Where have all the old skool CS experts gone to? Okay, I'll try.....Custom 50's pups, vintage fret wire....ash body....9.5 radius....neck profiles were usually a mid size C profile...but could vary a little...had one once that was a real pronounced V shape.

Mine is a 1997, but should be the same. The neck shape is more of a large C shape with a very soft V at the first few frets.

These were the basic guitars used for the Cunetto era 50's Relic Strats.
