Thanks to
@FelineGuitars I now have a strat that sounds right for me. I've always had a love hate thing with the strat, this is a classic player 60s and despite my best efforts the 69 customshop bridge pickup was just not right for me. Enter Jonathan and the bareknuckle trilogy bridge pickup and all my questions have been answered. More bass, more mids and more output....but it still sounds stratty. Perfect

well either way my classic player 60s strat is lovely, very happy and even more so now. It's a great series of guitars, I bought a classic baja at the same time, wonderful too.
Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

*edit* those frets look wider than vintage though, maybe an FSR @MattFGBI ?
well the receipt from guitar village says classic player....... And it has two mounting screws, and the paperwork that came with it says classic player too. It's this guitar...... http://intl.fender.com/en-GB/guitars/stratocaster/classic-player-60s-stratocaster-rosewood-fingerboard-candy-apple-red/
Don't forget to remove those hidden trem shims. I can just make them out in the pic.

The difference between Classic Player and Classic Series are fairly important and hopefully understood by everybody reading this. I went to look at a Classic Series on Gumtree and after a few minutes said : "Oh.....I'm choking."
To be fair, he did get me a glass of water.
Probably the best value for money Fender guitar available.

U have ignited the old gas flames my man
Btw - Baja Teles are the best axes along with the classic player strats without spending a bag.
