take a look at #8

Ive never seen a strat that didnt have all the pots mounted on the pickguard, Im guessing there will be some back panel housing all the wiring

And Number one is a hardtail American strat. Haven't seen that in a while. Now I'm regretting starting to build my own as a Jerrycaster.

If you want a neck-thru Strat, you may want to check out the Greco GO II series. Great vintage MIJ (Fujigen) axes.

Reminds me somewhat of the Ibanez Studio line, some of which were neck-thru, but not single coil.

Ibanez studio were set neck, fantastic guitars. Another good through neck super strat option are the el maya/suntech and Aria rs series.
