Looks like an all-parts guitar.

Neck and hardware are genuine but someone has thrown a loaded pickguard assembly into an aftermarket Lake Placid Blue body.

Original JB Strats came in Vintage White, Sea Foam Green, Midnight Purple and Mystic Black - with the latter being available only on the Custom Shop versions of this model.

Thanks chromeface, I wonder if the body is a fender body, and if it is, is it Mexican, Japanese or American, one curious thing is that the body doesnt have the screw holes for the tremelo cavity cover?? so no tremolo cover

Based on the shape of the neck joint, micro-tilt disk adjustment screw and dating lable (the black lined paper), this looks like a Fender body. When it comes to Fender neck joints, I've noticed that the area where the heal sit, is not flat, but has a little platue area in the center and two rounded routes on both sides. I'd know for sure if I could see the inside cavety and back plate screws wholes.

I agree, the Jeff Beck model never came in Lake Placid Blue.

Agreed! This is an American Standard or Strat Plus body with a Beck Neck and wiring slaped on it. It is either a partscaster or a Beck with a body change.
