I let a FSR Limited Edition American Standard Strat - Natural Ash slip through my fingers last winter in a moment of weakness and poverty. I'd love to replace it, and was wondering anybody knows whether Fender (or any Fender dealers) plan to bring it back. I think that Fender should make it a regular American Standard Strat option.

Yup, unfortunately that's why they call them FSR....here today, gone tomorrow!
Having said that though I see that the an FSR Tele I bought last year is still being sold.
At the time I couldn't justify the purchase other than it may not come around again, so I bit!

It's all in the deal Fender and the outlet selling them come to agreement on. Could be a limited run and when they finish selling, that's it. Or if they become popular the outlet may order another batch.

I'd keep checking the various outlets though. You never know when it may show up again!

I bought one in '97, and I believe it was a limited production model, not a dealer's FSR. Draw back on that year, and before, was their 'swimming pool' routing which, together with the trem rout, took an awful lot of wood out of the middle of the guitar. Unlike the Musician's Friend ad, mine had a white pickguard, a rosewood neck, and the lighter tint of the guitar you seek, Far preferable to that 'yellow' finish. As noted above, keep searching the 'used' listings if that's the look you love.
