| DANNY PATTERSON'S Guitars Fender American Standard Stratocaster "version 2.0" |
I asked Bobby Thompson to see if he could upgrade my Strat to my version of the Eric Clapton Stratocaster.
What I asked him to do is wire the pickguards so I would be able to switch the original pickguard & stock
pickups with the upgraded pickups & preamp by using a mini plug installed into each pickguard.
Below is a few pictures of the Stratocaster with the new pickguard (designed by me) with Fender Vintage
Noiseless pickups, a TBX tone pot (in the middle knob) and the Eric Clapton pre-amp pot installed into the last
tone knob.
