I found this Strat at a Pawnshop. It is an American Strat. Has the metal inlay on the back of the body that says genuine fender body. Says genuine fender neck. the neck has a dark yellow finish with the clear coat cracking around the head stock. On the Neck Plate it says.........

Custom
Special edition/limited edition.............I can’t remember.
Does anybody have any idea if this is worth anything? It plays amazing. Action if perfect. Looks old. Baby blue. Has 3 single coil pickups. I can’t find any other strat like it on the internet? Is it worth picking up for $600? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt

If you could get some pics we could tell you if it was real or not, but we simply cannot do it with description alone unfortunately
