Here's a couple of quick pics. The plastic is a little more yellowed than I thought, and the chrome parts are not as shiny as I was hoping, but the body is in pretty good shape and the neck is in great shape.

That looks real nice.

How old is it?

Do you know what kind of pickups are in it?

It's a 93 and the pickups are froma Fender Custom Shop Classic Strat Stratocaster, the neck and middle are Modern Classic and the bridge is a Hot Classic with a Custom Steel Inductance Plate.

I also have the orginal pickups, but not sure what the specs are on them.


And yes it's a 2 tone Sunburst.

I really like the look of the neck.


Yeah it's a really nice neck and a nice vintage tint to it. I have another 54 MIJ reissue neck that's a lot lighter in color and and has a thinner finish on it, so the edges are a little sharper.
