I have a 2013 Fender American Special Strat in 2 tone Starburst. I want to put a tortoise shell pick guard on it. I want to use genuine Fender parts. My question is, all I can find on Fender's web site is a tortoise pick guard for the American Standard. Both have the same pickups, single coil. Will this configuration work? Also, will this reduce the value of my Strat?

Thanks Diane

Hi,

I've changed a pickguard on an american special and an american standard one will fit just fine.

Just keep the old pickguard and swap it back if you ever want to sell or offer both.

My thoughts exactly get it from a vendor if you can.
Fender charges list price for the very reason of not competing with its vendors.
