Hi!
I have bought an American Standard Stratocaster.
I would like to check it, please help me.
The serial number is: US10099421
Is the number OK? What colour was the guitar? Was the fingerboard maple?
Thank You!

Hi Zoltan Papp,

The serial number only tells us that it is a US model of 2010 to 2011. Fender has the specific info such as which model and color, contact consumer relations with your serial number. :idea:

Hi!
Thank You!
How can I check, that the body is original Alder, and how can I check, that the Bridge Block is Copper Infused High Mass 100% Metal ?
Have a nice day:
Zoltan

You may have to dissasemble it, by unscrewing the neck and the back plate, and post the pictures so we can validate it. Some concern, I feel in you, the guitar you holds, about.

+1 joaokorb,

The neck pocket may be the only place to see the wood grain if it is a solid color finish. If it is a transparent finish like a sunburst, then the grain will show through the finish. Posting pictures could help to verify it's authenticity. Here is a picture of what the copper infused bridge block should look like, with a bevel on the end nearest the cover plate.
