Hi 4ntiClock,

Look at the top of the page, hover mouse pointer over "Products", a menu will appear. Under the title "Electric Guitars", select "Stratocaster". The specs are listed for each model shown, just click on a model and the specs will be there, under the "Specs" tab.

Just off the top of my head, the American "Deluxe" has a compound radius, starting at 9.5" and finishing at 14", and the MIM "Deluxe Players Strat" has a 12" radius.

Yes already was looking, but no (true) single coils or no 42.8mm/43mm nut.

So I was thinking maybe somebody knows some older/exotic/signature models that are not so easely to spot ;)

The Kenny Wayne Shepherd model has a 12" radius and single coils. Otherwise get a standard strat and order a Warmoth neck.

The first Fender with a 12" radius neck was the ill-fated Elite.

Billy Corgan Strat model has 43mm Nut Width but unfortunately a 9.5" radius.

Yeah the hole idea is to find one with both specifications :)
Billy Corgan strat is not my cup of tea :)
Maybe chunky neck but not the colors/pickups I like

Anyway I already have an American Special Strat with 43mm nut, I really like the neck
but it's also 9.5" and I really would like to feel the difference if it would be 12" :)

Yeah, I hear you. I would like to have I wider nut on my JazzMaster for my big fingers to fit better, and also a much flatter radius for better lead playing at the top frets. But I guess that would have to be a Custom Shop Order as I don't suspect there are any Standard Fender guitars out there with those sort of specifications.

Prior to his signature model Billy used a Strat with a Lace Plus pickup set.

Billy was a longtime Lace fan.

The guitar in question was a '57 reissue which has been used extensively in the 1990s. He also owned a Strat Plus Deluxe with the same pickups among others.
