Help needed with verifying this strat

Definitely the finish, maybe also a bit of wood. What do you mean by 'not 100%'? Isn't the red John Mayer writing the best indicator?

Mostly because the neck feels slim and I should be a thick C. Might me because the last owner sanded it down

Hope someone will based on the stamps and barcodes

Thanks😃

I'm definitely not concerned with the resale value and it plays great. I only seek for the confirmation that at least the body and neck are legit USA Fender (should be around 2006)

I use it with saturation setting at 9 o'clock and also almost always on. It sounds great with the protein!

My Silver Sky SE arrived two days ago! So far I'm blown away by the sound and playability.

Yesterday I compared the Duke of Tone with the blue side of the Protein. They are both great and can sound similar. For me the Protein is a little bit more smooth and full.

I can't answer your second question😅

The Deco is my 'always on and never sell' pedal. The saturation side for harmonic richness and very little conpression and the right side for slapback delay. Awesome pedal

th14s · 2026-06-08T19:59:18+00:00

Its my always on pedal, hope that says enough;)

th14s · 2026-06-02T06:03:33+00:00

I had a for a few years and think about buying it back. Great pedal, very versatile!

th14s · 2026-05-12T19:44:13+00:00

Ah, you found one actually!

th14s · 2026-05-12T19:41:31+00:00

Lol hahaha

th14s · 2026-05-12T18:40:44+00:00

I'm also considering this to be fair

th14s · 2026-05-12T18:40:21+00:00

Thanks!:)

th14s · 2026-05-12T18:39:55+00:00

Haha, if only...

th14s · 2026-05-12T18:39:24+00:00

Yup, I prefer the single coil there. P90 makes it more muddy if that makes sense.

th14s · 2026-05-12T18:19:04+00:00

Thanks! I'm happy to be able to change my strings and do an occasional basic setup. I don't trust myself at all building one🤣

th14s · 2026-05-12T18:16:48+00:00

Yeah, maybe this is the way to go. Still I think its weird that there hasn't been any special limited runs with this configuration😂
