So, the title pretty much says it all. I know that at some point maybe in the late 80's or early 90's Fender included the TBX in (all?) the American Standard line. A friend of mine's 1996 Am. Std. Strat (SN N6178XXX) has no TBX.
He bought it used (seller claimed the guitar was 100% stock), and after taking a look inside, we are 99% sure the TBX was removed by the previous owner (my friend had never opened the pickguard) He didn't know those 1996's should come with TBXs :roll: , but anyway, that made me think: did Fender ever made some Am. Std. Strats with no TBX or no Delta Tone at some point? Maybe a special-run or limited edition? The possibility exists?

Just in case I come across with someone saying they have an "all-original no TBX Standard" again :)

When I was buying a strat back in the early 90s I'm pretty sure it was either the Plus, Deluxe or Ultra models which had the TBX control. The plain old American standard just had stock tone controls.
