Strange that it's labeled as an Allparts pickguard, so it's not original (not that it really matters, as long as it fits! Note the curved neck heel area, anyone who is looking at this - make sure it will fit)

I wonder what the pickups are; if they are also aftermarket, or are the originals (and what those might be!)
I started ElDegas.com many years ago to help celebrate and inform about El Degas instruments. It all started with a used Ric 4000 bass copy I bought in circa 2000.

El Degas stable as of 03/2022: 42 :shock: (13 bass, 26 electric, 3 acoustic)

Seller claims they came out of an ED. Could be that the original pickguard got damaged??

Most likely.
Depending what "level" of Strat copy this came out of, the Allparts one might be superior to what it had stock (i.e. in my opinion the stock pickguards in the MIK models are pretty crappy)
