Hi !
I bought this part quite some time ago to build a nice Iron Maiden style guitar but never got to find a nice neck for it. I'm having some trouble to fin out which Strat model was it taken from.

I'm pretty confident it wasnt a Classic Floyd Rose Series Strat because those had a swimming pool picku routing. On the neck pocket i reads FEB 2001 but its almost faded so i'm not 100% sure.

It has a Floyd Rose bridge routing and a luthier put some wood to block the bridge (and also a sticker under in the bridge pickup cavity)

Does anyone have a similar one?

I had something that looked pretty close to that years ago...but it was a Washburn.
Sorry; I know that doesn't help, but that pic brought back memories.

That is HSH routing. With Swimming Pool all the routs are joined up as one, like a swimming pool under your scratch plate. I'm not sure how that impacts on your assessment though.

Yes, the swimming pool route is clear. Now, which model used that routing and also was fit for a Floyd Rose trem ? I can't seem to find a conclusive match
