Dear friends,

My question is dedicated to Fender Stratocaster guitars from '93!
Who is experienced with this year instruments?
Which type of puck ups were at that time?
What about neck?
I am in position to by one in excellent condition and I am wondering about details and opinions!!!
Thanks!

+1

That's a pretty wide schism.

I have a 1995 and it is my best Strat for the sustain , the feel .... but I replace the pickups . It is an a American Standard


Which is your guitar ? In 1993 you have American Standard with regular pickups .

Strat Plus , Deluxe Strat Plus and Ultra Strat all with Lace sensor pickups . These are great.

You have also Mexican and Japan made guitar

In 93, one of the models was the Strat Ultra still, with the Lace Sensor pickups, precursors of the Noiseless. Also available was the American Standard, Strat Plus and Strat Plus Deluxe. All with TBX tone control wire to the middle and bridge pickups. I believe Standard pickups had flat poles and a Hot Bridge as lead pickup, all black base and plastic wiring.

Neck is typical, walnut plug, small headstock, 22 frets, skunk stripe, offered in maple or rosewood. Note the Strat Plus has a rolling nut. Profile is most likely a modern C with a fretboard of 9.5 radius.

I think bodies of AmStd of the time had a swimming pool route.

If anything I said was wrong, wont be long before I get corrected :)
