It's not a replica. I saw it yesterday. I was skeptical b/c all interviews that I had read stated that Jimmie would never display it. Do your research and focus on the videos that had the Fender customer shop guys looking at Number One. Keep in mind that this is the original neck that was on the guitar when Stevie bought/traded it. Rene Martinez placed the original neck back on there and presented it to the Vaughan Family shortly after Stevie passed. Oh and that's Jimmie's guitar behind Number One.

Yeah, about the time Fender released the SRV Strat, he started using the pic guard seen here.

@yog...you are wrong. those letters replaced the ones you're thinking of. these were the last ones applied.
as for the museum...a definite stop next time i'm there. sure miss SRV!
Re: Stevie Ray Vaughan Items On Display At Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum in Austin
I may be wrong but that doesn't look like the real No# 1. The pick guard does not have that rainbow stick on SRV like No#1 had.
