I'm a bit confused here, are you talking about this: CS Gilmour Signature?

That came to production in 2008...

More info, please. If you haven't any pics, send a link to the webpage.

It looks the same as on the fender page . Colour, body , all specs . Guitar is much heavyer then my strat standard and it has a buitiful neck with wood strips. Guy say that it is guitar before gilmour sign it for fender , but its the same guitar that he use. Could it be true? It looks realy great and sounds brilliant

Again: the Gilmour Signature just didn't exist in 1983.
Secondly, "gilmouring" a Strat is probably one of the most common mods - and sadly, many of those carry fake CS logos.
Thirdly, 1000$ for a 1983 Strat may be OK for a good MIA, but is really high for a modded MIM, MIJ, Partscaster or Squier.
Number four, the story ("guy say that it is guitar before gilmour sign it for fender , but its the same guitar that he use") doesn't put me in a comfortable trusting state of mind.

At the moment: I'm very doubtful.

So: be very careful. Send pics here before you buy. Find out more about the seller & his/her reputation. Check the guitar's serial number for the original specs (via email to consumerrelations@fender.com ).
