It does seem to have a mark but I'm no expert.

Sorry to labour the string tree point - somehow I did get the Reverb link wrong (doh!) but the inline pic above is taken from the Reverb ad, and it does show factory butterfly trees on a two-knob. Which does slightly contradict the factory theory, which is actually not in my favour but hey-ho!
Correct link:

I had a dan smith strat about 20 years ago, i think it was an 82 , it had the small headstock but with the large decal . it was white with a maple neck , it was an absolute boat anchor heavy barstaad ... it was ok , nothing special the weight made me get shut , pickups were ok but a bit thin , i sold it to a private dealer who removed the neck and pickguard to confirm its status , i only have one picture of it i will try an link to it .....

I almost feel like we all own the guitar now....
I might even stop wondering about its provenance and play it later...
(I still can't help thinking the lack of truss rod scratchplate dimple means it's factory though...) And a good example of theFretboard's collective endeavour to help.
