It's no shocking revelation to most Stratocaster fans that this guitar has undergone numerous changes over the years regarding hardware, body cavity routs, bridge configuration, and other less significant details. This can be bewildering to many folks who've not watched the guitar as it mutated from its original design and can be a genuine PITA when trying to buy replacement parts to restore or repair a vintage instrument, or to build a vintage-spec clone. The "learning curve" can prove to be very steep when sorting out the available components -- trust me, I paid a modest price for the privilege. As I began assembling and hot-rodding various Strat models I also made note of each part I purchased and began itemizing the official Fender part numbers. The following list inventories every part needed to keep a 1954 through 1970 Stratocaster performing at peak efficiency (less a body and a neck) or to build an all-new clone of same. I've listed only a few of the Fender pickup sets since there are so many different ones available. Likewise, Fender catalogs many more pickguards though these are generally used on the newer American Standard and Deluxe instruments. In those few instances where a Fender part (or part number) was not available, I have suggested suitable replacements from aftermarket sources. My hope is that this list will keep others from erroneously buying un-needed or unusable stuff.
Best of luck
