Fender 2008 model string hold down

Hi there,
I was wondering why some new 2008 fender am standard V string models (mostly Olympic white ones) have a string hold down bar on the headstock, an all the others have two "cirkels" that also hold the g-string.
Are they both the new 2008 or is the one with the hold down bar from 2007?
Thnx for the answers
