The downside is that it's hard to prove if you decide to sell it on (which obviously will never happen) that it's not a neck that you've changed yourself, on a Strat body, and so lower the value, rather than increase it.

That's easily provable.... a check of the serial number on the Fender.com website gives an accurate description plus a generic photo of the model. The serial number is on the back of the headstock...

And I now have made a video... lol.... https://youtu.be/384N-UsfIb0
