I don't think there are any differences between that and a normal mim strat. It is just a guitar made in 2006 with that branded on the back of the neck.

I will say that there is a 60th anniversary strat with tex mex pickups but the color is blizzard pearl. But your guitar is sunburst so everything should be mim stock.

I recently picked up a 60th Anniversary Strat in Blizzard Pearl.

I ended up paying $269 for it used at Guitar Center. First time I'd ever seen that color at GC and it showed no signs of wear, just a little dirty and corroded strings, so I bought it. I cut the strings off and I'm still cleaning and polishing. Very sweet guitar.

Garden-variety MIM Standard in 3TSB with maple furniture.

No great shakes......they're worth around $275, $300 tops.

I've got news for some of you. That little disk was put on all Fender guitars made in that year. To include my HWY1. There are 60th Anniversary Strats out there. I think the "Silver" is the a MIM Anniversary Strat and I know that Fender produced a 3-color-sunburst Strat with a man made diamond in the head stock, but that's about it for special 60th Anniversary editions.
