Hello,

I'm the recent owner of a Stratocaster Custom shop NOS 57 vintage blonde, left handed, used.
The serial number is R30849
The date in the custom shop certificate is 23 August 2006.

The problem is the previous owner replaced the original pickup set, but didn't kept it before selling the guitar.

Who knows which original Fender pickup set is mounted on this guitar ? 57/62 ? Fat 50' ? CS 54' ? other set ?

Thank you very much for your help !
Best regards
Greg

Send an e-mail to consumerrelations@fender.com with the serial number and as much as you know about it, and they should be able to tell you.

Perchance is this a "time machine" Series (NOS Strat)

if it is, as far as I can recall, (I had one) I think they may have come with CS56's
My memory isn't great on this, but that's what my first reaction was reading your post.
the could have been 54's - it was a while ago..


let us know if Fender answers you.

Those were nice guitars, my sounded awesome, I just couldn't quite get past the vintage frets and maple board. I traded it off a few years after buying it. Sometimes, I wish I would have held on to it to see if I could have over time gotten by with the fret/board combo.
