Gday guys new here, recently bought a USA 2008 LPB standard strat and when I opened it I found bar codes and labels (2) plus a round red orange sticker with numbers, the picups have old cloth wiring on most and the picups have custom shop stickers. The neck is dated 2008 with bar code label. bar codes in body start with 0053807 -xx8
and 0053807-95x am using x instead of digits. The neck is rosewood maple z8........
Its a great guitar, are these codes legit, routing is authentic cts pots 250k paid
1270.00 US almost mint. Were there LPB standard strats made in USA 2008 thanks

Bridge is a 6-screw vintage style, the American Standard had a 2-screw vintage bridge with bent steel saddles. Pickups are Custom Shop 60s and not '62.

American Standard bodies are universally routed for three humbuckers, so it's either an American Vintage '62 Strat, a Custom Shop 1961 Closet Classic or a fake partscaster.

If you post a video from the neck, this might be helpful.

There's a youtube button in the control panel, paste the URL containing the YT link, drag your mouse over it and click the youtube box to automatically insert the youtube tags between!

Partscaster, an American Standard neck attached into an AVRI '62 body.
