Need help identifying Squier Strat

[maxime]

I bought a Squier strat a few years ago for around £300.

I can't find any guitars on online stores that look just like it.

Huge thanks to anyone who can help!

I think it could be a Vintage Modified Stratocaster HSS: http://www.squierwiki.com/VM-Stratocaster-HSS-(2nd-Version)

Do you have a photo of the back of the headstock? The markings and serial number might help to confirm it.

That's alright thank you, I am almost completely sure that's the model. Thank you so much for your help!

Assuming it's all original, I'd agree - Vintage Modified. Anod to the guys who bought late 60s CBS Strats and then added their own HBs to the bridge for a HB tone back in the days when aftermarket pups first became a thing, and fatter or squeal-free Single coils hadn't yet come around. To my eye, the older style maxchnie heads are a point to note in identifyling the model; I'm sure I've seen a HSS Standard Squier with the big headstock in recent years, but they didn't have the vintage-style machnie heads, rather the squarer, modern ones. People often modify the pickups on Squiers, but unless there's a realproblem, it's rare to see 'em switch out the machine heads. (If anything, I think folks are more likely to switch to modern or locking ones than this vintage style, though personally I think these are the best loooking Fender ever did).
