I got this at Sam Ash for for cheap:
It's an '86 Squier Strat, Japan made, with a Fender case. It's pretty nice, but the previous owner spray-painted the pickguard, tremolo arm tip and pickup covers black, which took a couple of hours to clean off. Also, the neck pickup is unoriginal, and the nut was on backwards, and was broke into 3 pieces (You can sort of see the break between the E and A slots; the other break us under the Low E). I just superglued the nut slot and put the pieces in place; it seems to have worked fine. The knobs were replaced with black metal knobs, but I had an original set in my spare parts bin. The switch button was missing, but I had one of those, too. The only thing I had to get was a cover for the neck pickup that matched, and Greenshift had one for $1 (though it is a little more yellowed than the other two). I plan of putting a black pickguard, knobs and pickup covers on it, and maybe get an original neck pickup, too.
