Got got a 1987 Strat off ebay.... Any thoughts Fender guys?

[Maximusgordon 2.0]

Hey guys,
I have been stratless for a bit now and finally went onto ebay and bought one, its a american 1987 3-tone burst with maple neck. I paid 700$ for it. If im not mistaken, 1987 was one of the first years that fender started producing stuff in the US again. Right? Anyways, im excited to get it and am wondering how it will play and sound, im sure it will be just fine, but just not quite sure what to expect because i dont think there was an american deluxe or fender custom shop in the states at the time... Can any of you Strat enthusiasts give me some info...

Thanks,
Max

I thought the American Standard began production sometime around late '81 or in '82. One of the strat books, like the "Strat Chronicles" probably has that history.

anyway, expect a nice ax!
