Hi!

I am new to the forum. I will be purchasing a used American Stratocaster in a few days. The serial number is Z4034993. What can you guys tell me about the Strat? For example, what tuners, pickups and tremolo does it have? This would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Should be a 2004 model - is it an Am. Standard, or another model? Someone will give ya a detailed answer, some knowledgeable folks on here! Welcome!

Thanks for the link! However, I would like to know more about the guitar's components. It has three single coils. Would that make it an American Standard Strat?

There are a lot of American strats with 3 single coil pickups. How about a picture and your questions will be answered by the good folk on this forum!

Here are the pictures.

Looks like a MIA Standard and it should be alder.

Looks like a deluxe bridge.

That's right, there were different saddles weren't there?

I think the deluxe bridge is consistent with the 2004 MIA Standard. It's stock.

Oh, 'cause I remember the early 00's ones had the different saddles with the two points trems.

The 2 point is the american standard, the 6 point is vintage.

I would say that if you can pick it up for $800 or less than it's a go!

I know, that's what I was talking about.

You know what? I think I misread something at some point, nevermind.

I am going to be paying $750CDN for it. That's roughly $560USD.
