Question Fenders American Standards...when did they switch back to the full size body?

I understand they made the bodies smaller at some point and are now back up to the full size, is that correct? What year did they go back to bigger again?

I think you're thinking of the American Deluxes. They used to feature a slightly downsized body. But as far as I know. the American Series and American Standards were always full-sized.

Right. And they changed the Deluxe to full size this last year.
