legitimacy check

[spartafxrs5]

hi. so, someone's selling me a limited edition se custom 24 (2017) for a price of an se standard 24. he said that the fingerboard's ebony, and the pickups are the non-"s" versions. i'm no expert in checking these things, so, could someone please help me check the legitimacy of the parts at least? the serial number checks out though.

It is true that pickups are not the "S" version:
85/15 S are more "rounded" while these are square as the US version.

it's just that i can't find any info online regarding this model. and the seller said that the pickups came with it, and he didn't change them to the US versions.

Always good to rely on some more "expert" advice and guidance. From my point of view you have found a jewel to take pride in. That top/finish is gorgeous!
