Hi first time post from new member. Just bought my first strat, a second hand 60th Anniversary commemorative stratocaster and love it. However just wondering if anyone can help. Even though the pick guard still has the protective plastic the two fender stickers are missing. That is the Fender american flag sticker and the 60 years motif sticker. Emailed fender and you cannot purchase them. Just wondered if anybody has the stickers I could buy in the interests of keeping it as it came from the factory. everything else is there and as it should be. Thanks

Most people remove the protective plastic from the pick guard. If you don't, after a while it becomes almost impossible to remove it. Then again, you could learn the hard way. :wink:

Is it one of the new 60th Anniversary Strats or 60th Anniversary Strat with the diamond in the headstock?

The OP's axe is a 2014 60th commemorative; it does sport the 60th anniversary sticker.

Hi there
Sorry I have no suggestions on the sticker front but maybe someone reading this could send you theirs etc.
Honestly though if you intend playing that strat having those stickers in mint condition would be the least of your worries.
Not that helpful I know and I do not want to seem negative but the only way to keep it pristine is put it away in its case in a closet or similar and seldom play it.
Most but not all recent anniversary strats go for little more than their original price so just enjoy your guitar for what it is rather than from an investment/collectability point of view. :D

mine didn't come with the stickers either and I have peeled off the film. It also didn't come with the book for which I had to contact fender .
I've seen a few unboxing videos and the packaging is different as well in that they had foam at either end of the case and mine had cardboard. This and the other things has made me think that maybe mine was part of an early batch. But I might be wrong. Would'nt swap it for another. :)
