You're not on your own Niki, I too don't see a join. Mind you I can't see any joins on my Highway either. They're either solid pieces of alder (which seems unlikely) or maybe they've been veneered top and bottom to cover up who knows how many strips of tonewood..

It may be well matched into a horizontal grain pattern that the stain is hiding. Sometime they get real lucky. My TelePlus had a natural finish on ash and damned if one could find the lines on that one.

It certainly looks like it's a one piece,if not it's the best grain match up I've ever seen.

Do you happen to know if the guitar was FSR for Roxy Music or acquired elsewhere?

I dont know if it was FSR just for the roxy music. they might have more

Nikininja is that a picture of Vinnie Pop?

someboby said they didn't think his FSR had the full size sustain block. It looks like it does to me. I also see what looks like a join seam almost down the middle. Looking at the back. It looks like it was bookmatched. That is a beautiful guitar. I own several nice strats and yet I am still majorly jealous. Enjoy that one.

I have the old old stock 2004

Very nice guitar!! I'm happy for you my friend!!
