For the first Q it is a Strat. Sorry i didnt make myself clearer last time, I should have re-read the post =), I was talking about cutting a bigger hole in the pickguard to fit the Seymour Duncan (last night I had looked around and hadn't seen any Fender Pickguards with a hole big enough, (found some after I posted). As of now I am thinking about just sending the pickup back to Musicians friend (they do have a 30 day return policy, correct? (it is unopened)) and just getting the Tom DeLonge Strat. The reason I bought the pickup is because I had wanted the T. Delonge strat, but for Christmas I ordered a $500 PA system and stands and mics etc, and thought I might save some money and just put the pickup on instead of getting the guitar, but I now realize it may be more hassle than its worth to install it (plus I think by the time I get the new pickguard, get the Pickup installed, and replace some old hardware on it it will be about half of what the T. Delonge cost). So I think im just going to go ahead and send the pickup back and get the DeLonge strat. I also want the unfinished neck, the older Mexican Strat has a finished maple (i think thats correct?) neck and my hand wnt slide well on it, it jsut kinda get"stuck" while playing it, while my friends Iceman ICX### (the value one) has an unfinshed neck and the difference is night and day. Sorry for the long post and thanks again for the replies!
