That's her :-)
A natural beauty with some scars...a one and only...
Based on a Jimmie Vaughan Model.
Neck:
I was lucky when working for Fender I could exchange the neck. It is still a Jimmie Vaughan neck, but they made a very short run on figured maple that's why it looks slightly different than the usual factory Jimmi neck.
Aged parts:
Nope, this is no Fender accessory stuff! A guy from Switzerland owned an original 50's strat and believe it or not, he didn't like the natural aging and put on white knobs. Stupid, he? I bought the old original accessories for less than 10USD!
PUs:
Texas Special PU set
Pickguard:
Mint green - Fender mass accessory
Cowgirl:

I have Vargas pin ups on all my Strats. Those stickers are specially made for guitars and it looks very natural not like a sticker.
Scars:
A bottle of beer was thrown against it in a club where they didn't like Blues music, a heavy key set fell on it, it was rubbed on the floor, and all this just happened, so I call it natural relic :-) Many years, many many gigs when I still played the Fender amp shows here in Germany, she forgives me all that and awards me with her beautiful sound.
