Hey guys,

Just bought a MIM Standard strat and noticed the neck plate is just plain chromed steel. I have seen other neckplates that have Fender and even Squier printed on them on other models.

Just wondering, is it possible to buy a "Fender" stamped neck plate as a spare part so to speak and fit it to my MIM Std? Is it just a straight bolt fit ie are all the neck plates a standard size etc?

Cheers!

yeah they're the same size. You can buy one on Ebay.

You can even have custom made ones made if you wanted.

I swapped my "plain Jane" cover out for a nice chrome "F" stamped cover. It was a direct swap.
