Hello, I'm a new here. : ) My name's Fluke, from Thailand. so I'm just got my first Fender Stratocaster Japan. But it had 22 frets, so it's authentic or not?

Here's some pic of my Fender : )








Thanks for your helps

Hi, welcome. I cannot tell you for certain your guitar is a true, made in Japan model - though it looks like it to me. I can tell you that the two of my "made in Japan" Strats have 22 frets.

This is serial number in the back of the neck : )

J031549

The serial number mean it is an 89-90 model strat and these were made with 22 frets. Looks like a previous onwer may have changed the pickups. I haven't seen a "zebra" humbucker in a strat before. Usually the pickup covers are all the same collor.

Oh, thanks for your answer : ) The previous owner is my brother. He have changed the PU to Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge. So thanks for your answer again.
