I've been trying to date this one... Best strat I've ever played, but I get confused. Its a seven digit SN: 9009787, there used to be a spaghettilogo, although one owner did removed it, its till quite easy to make it out, and 50 is engraved on the fretboard.. At least Im pretty sure its 50...

Can anyone help?

Thanks! One more question. Anbody know if it is a "real" model? Have a friend who tells me that no 3-tone redburst with a maple neck came with the pre cbs headstock... it says "the exact replica..." on the headstock...? In that case which year?

You need a "real" friend.

Well, he usually knows his fenders...

3 tone sunburst.. not red. Obviously... so whuch year should it replicate, then?

Tokai is also known for not always being exact on "the exact replica". :wink:

I think the question here is, does he know Tokais?
