on the 31.12 of last year I went and ruined my bank account with this lovely fender(my fifth). glad I did: its by far the best guitar I ever held in my humble hands.

pictures can be found here: http://www.arftone.com/stef.php
more equipment : go stefs equipment (top of that same page)
back shot of the guitar: http://www.arftone.com

Meanwhile (when I'm not ripping my fingers on the .011s) I try to gather some information about this guitar. The COA says: Vintage Stratocaster relic. And: 06/27/07

Am I right to guess that its a late 60s model (69?).
Does anyone know what pickups are in there?
My dealer said something about it being a limited edition made for shops exclusively (whatever that means). I bought it in switzerland. On the web I didnt find any pictures of this guitar (sixties relic with maple neck). Is it actually kinda rare?

What I also noticed: the pickguard is shielded. is that common with custom shop guitars?

any infos/help is appreciated.
thanx, guys![/img]

mike, sir, you rock!
thank a lot for th equick and extremely informed input.
makes me feel even better for buying this guitar, now that I know that its kinda rare.
I asked again at the shop. he didnt quite know th enumber as well, but he seemed to remember, that teher were like 40 pieces of this made.

and did I mention: it sounds and feels soooo good!
