Just picked up a new Fender Blacktop Strat in sonic blue and I love it, but I was trying to look for the owners manual for this guitar and can not find it. Can anybody help?

I got one with mine, it's very generic. What do you need to know? You can have mine if you want it.

Applies to all current production Fender Guitars. Nothing unique about the Blacktops.

Believe I will when I'm done with it. I have thread on here but I'm not sure how to put up a link to it. Computers are not my specialty but its my blacktop with pics. I'm gutting it....it's a fine guitar I'm just adding my flavor to it. BUT IMO... it badly awfully horribly NEEDS a Trem block upgrade, again just MY opinion. Enjoy yours!

I bought a Sonic Blue/Rosewood "Blacktop" from a Guitar Center. The manual you get is a generic one in a packet with all the other bits. I had to make the salesman go find one for me.

Nothing in it is specific to the "Blacktop"

It's a neat guitar. Fender has done a wonderful job with these.

Here is the spec-sheet for the Blacktop Strat.

I think it contains a lot of the info you're looking for. The switching options look interesting:

5-Position Blade: Position 1. Full Bridge Pickup, Position 2. Two Inside Single Coils, Position 3. Both Full Humbucking Pickups, Position 4. Outer Neck Single Coil, Position 5. Full Neck Pickup
