Hi everyone, I'm new to the whole forum scene (and to Fenders actually). I recently bought a 1988 Fender USA Standard strat, and curious to know a little more information about it. I was wondering if anybody knew the factory specifications of the USA standards in 1988, specifically the pickups (which sound amazing!). Struggling to find the info on google, so thought I'd ask here :)

Thanks!
Alex

I have two videos on YouTube about these guitars.




These should help.

Congtrats on your 1988 Strat. I own a mint pewter 88 Strat and love it. Great pickups too in the 88 and I think they are alnico V pickups even though I changed mine out for an Eric Clapton loaded pickguard with lace pickups. I sometimes switch back just because I do like the stock pickups. Easy enough to do. I would imagine your 88 also has a TBX tone control which I really like. Anyway enjoy. Its a great guitar and in my opinion a great model year.
