Hi everyone,
Well after pondering it over & selling off a bunch of stuff, I ended up purchasing my first US Strat.
I must say the neck is amazing compared to my mim strat even though I love my mim after putting in a set of D Allen pups.

Here are a couple of photos, I don't know if it's a 2010 or 2011? the ser # starts with US10..
have a great day all!

It could be either; Fender started using the "US10" numbers about April/May of last year; I just began seeing guitars (aside from the 60th Anniversary Teles) with "US11" numbers in stores and on on-line dealer sites about the middle of last month.

To verify you can either email your serial number to Fender's consumer relations department (consumerrelations@fender.com) or remove the neck to check the date stamps on the neck and body.

You posted your picture backwards... ...ooohh! You're a southpaw!

That's a good looking Stratocaster--congrats!

Sweet guitar,you better hide the pix from Chet Feathers or you may trigger another GAS attack for him.(He's a lefty too)
