Hey there everybody. I've owned this Fender Strat for 14+ years now and i don't know exactly what kind of Strat it is. I've never really seen on like it before, especially with Strat written in very large letters on the head of the guitar. Image

If anybody can point me in a direction that'd be greatly appriciated.
Thanks much[/img][/code]

It's a Strat HM I believe. From like the late 80's.

This is one of those 80s Super Strats that Fender made to compete w/ the likes of Ibanez, Jackson/Charvel, ESP, etc. to cater to hair metal. Hence the FR/Kahler style bridges, 24 frets and humbuckers. Google Fender super strat and you should be able to find a lot of info.

I'm personally not a big fan of all the stickers, but the guitar look nice.I like HM Strats, they have a nice solid feel to them much like a Charvel.
