I recently bought a 2005 John Mayer Stratocaster body (Tobacco Sunburst).I own a 2008 Mayer also same color.The 2005 body only has 10 holes drilled in the body for the pickguard,and the 2008 has 11 holes drilled as most strats.Could this be a Custom Shop Mistake or a rare mistake. I do not have the pickguard that came on it to verify the holes,but I have never seen nothing but 9 or 11 hole pickguards on American Strats !!!!! ????? Thank's Oh and I didn't drill the 11th hole out, just in case ???

Were they making mayer strats in 05?
I'd put this one in the Ask Mike Eldred section mate. He's the customshop guru and if asked nicely may check the serial no for you.

of course they were, that was the first year they produced them. the other colors available were Shoreline Gold w/ Racing Stripe, and Charcoal Frost Metallic w/ Racing Stripe.

Have you ever heard of any with a 10-hole pickguard, chanman246?

Personally, No. but I know of several '05s that had factory errors, and a missing hole is one of the errors known. Most first run instruments have their "kinks", you see. ;) :lol:
