Fake.

Fake logo.

Wrong headstock shape.

No walnut or black plastic insert around the truss access hole.

Far eastern tuners and bridge.

12th fret, fret markers in the wrong positions.

Here is a picture of my 91 American Standard ..Notice the difference in headstock,Fender logo,color of truss rod plug,string trees,Vintage tremolo instead of block tremolo also there is one huge give away no micro tilt adjustment on back..

If it was a vintage reissue it may not have the micro tilt but it does not appear to be a vintage re issue...

Image

Besides you have Nikininja,fhopkins,Detroit Blues and Martian four of the most knowledgeable strat people on this board or anywhere else for that matter saying its fake odds are it is..
There kinda of the E F Hutton of Strat knowledge...

I don't think that the logo transfered from thicker 80s silver to Spaghetti until the about '96 or so.

I stand by my observations in my fisrt posting.

Most definetly fake, those black sheets are just plain nylon...
If it was the real deal, they would be satin!
I just cannot see Kim's bare naked $@! parked on nylon, think if the static charge.

I also noticed that the string trees, fret markers (not suposed to be pearl) and bridge (should be a two point) plate are wrong.
