I grabbed a Classic Vibe 70s Strat. I want to put on a HSS Gold pickguard. From what I have been able to find, a MIM Strat Guard may fit. Key word "may". I have yet to find any for sure/definitive info on what exactly I need to order. Any help or advice would be great!

any Strat pickguard should fit...but the screw holes will most likely not line up perfectly.

How do you like the strat? Everybody raves about the classic vibe teles, but I hear a lot less about the strats. What's your opinion?

I have only played briefly ; but it plays great, as good as any MIM I have played. I was specifically looking for this model, because I am going to Fast Eddie this mutha f#cker. It's the closest I could get to natural body, rosewood looking finger board and large headstock without breaking the bank .

I managed to stop. It wasn't easy. I was horribly addicted.

There is no easy answer on the Squiers as depending on year and manufacturer, they are all a little different. A MIM should come pretty close either way

I bought a pickguard for a MIM Fender and it fit my CV70's perfectly.. I used cheapo seller "MLaval" on Reverb.
