A neck thru showed up on the used rack at my local store for 500 bucks, I went to the bank to get the money, came back and it was gone. It wasnt branded as a strat though, it was a Stagemaster. lots of pics on google https://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=fender+stagemaster+guitar&bav=on.2,or.r_cp.r_qf.&bvm=bv.45512109,d.aWM&biw=1366&bih=642&wrapid=tlif136645875684610&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=iIFyUcT3J9DPqwHo44CYCg

Stagemasters were Squier equivalents of the original Fender Showmasters.

They started life as downsized Stratocasters before being more superstrat-like circa 2002/03.

Renamed Showmasters a couple of years later and discontinued.

These guitars differ from the original Showmaster for their reversed headstock.

Both Showmasters and Stagemasters featured a set-neck design. Some were bolt-ons.

Fender never did neckthrough Showmasters unless custom-ordered.

Neckthrough superstrats are generally considered as a Jackson speciality.
