replaced pickguard, knobs are original, need a new block string and a new nut. Probably you could find bad surprises under the p.g. But for 100 € I would buy it...
What I'm about to do, is to put back the original 2001 single coil bridge p-up, to have it back in stock condition.
Anyway I have another strat, a 1986 contemporary with a single Humbucker in the bridge
After a nice 2013 Sg Standard and a great 2019 LP Classic came in, I started to think to pull out on the original Single coil on my 2001 american strat.
I bought it from a guy, who replaced the original bridge SC, with a Di Marzio Paf Pro, more than ten years ago, so I never heard it's real...
I’m not that good with english, but You are the reason why I found interesting this forum, your knowledge about Fender and an Strats, is precious for me, I wish all the best to you, and I’m with all the others here, to wait for good news about your health. Get well my brother.
