I just finished modding my Purple Squier Affinity Strat (year 2000, Indonesia) by installing a prewired pickguard with Alnico V pups from GuitarFetish, and a maple/maple neck swapped from a 1992 Korean made Squier (the nut width is 3/16" wider than the original rosewood/maple Affinity neck). Plays and sounds fantastic. The GFS prewired pickguard was a bargain at $47.95. Yields a nice, hot Vintage Strat sound that is hum-free in all switch positions. It took me several months to find just the right neck. Here's some photos.
