I installed this on a 2013 MIM Stratocaster. The mounting holes lined up very well for me, no issues. The holes for the humbucker mounting screws were abnormally small, and I had to enlarge them a little. That took about a minute, no big deal. The openings for the humbuckers have very squared off corners, should work well if your pickups have covers. Mine are open coil, and the old pickguard had rounded corners on the pickup openings, which I would have preferred, but this one looks great, no complaints.
