I suggest this guitar would get MANY more views if you re-posted pictures of it in the 'Pre-CBS Strats (before 1966)' section of 'Strat Talk'. Many of the pre-CBS Strat enthusiasts who hang out in that part of the forum may not visit the 'Classified Ads' section.

Sounds great. And with a case! Looks crazy good value to me…

Good contribution, Bad number order 🙂

I would imagine hamerfan was using the phrase 'if you own' in the generic sense rather than the personal sense. Or that you (Tom) were making a joke.

Thanks for the extra pictures. It's my kind of a guitar :cool: Are there issues ? Yes. As Bazz points out, it has worn a previous pickguard (one possible explanation is subsequent marriage but legit neck / legit body), wrong-date potentiometer, amateur scrubbing around in the routs (possible...

These three books ~ The Fender Stratocaster ~ The Galaxy of Strats ~ The Authority of Stratocaster have loads of great pre-CBS pictures although the text is mostly in Japanese.

Many thanks for posting this link, Bazz - it's great ! I'd never come across it before, and now feel able to tackle a couple of jobs I never thought would be within my competence :)

Of course an 'in hand' inspection would beat a picture any day. However, based on the picture, I'm not seeing any colouring which could not be explained by lots of honest sweat from an unsleeved right forearm. The area of forearm wear is more extensive than the majority of examples, and the...

Hi Wayne, the 'ex-Hank Williams Jnr' 54 Strat (now with Jean-Pierre Danel) is number 6760. Here's an interesting Strat Talk link: https://www.strat-talk.com/threads/lady-rose-1954-production-stratocaster-hank-williams-jr-jean-pierre-danel.14824/ And here's what Eddie Vegas had to say about the...

I'm a 'GigRig Quartermaster' user, just like Stormy Monday. (Great bit of kit, incidentally). But even using the Quartermaster and leaving all my pedals 'on' as I power down, I still need to switch some individual pedals back on, when next 'powering up'. (Examples are my Neo Mini-Vent, my Walrus...

Now that’s a performance I’ve not seen before ! 🙂

I own three pedal boards powered by One Spot, and have used two of them (CS12 and CS 7) over hundreds of gigs : we've definitely had differing experiences !

Cliff's white '59 strat sold for £4750 plus 36% in fees, a total of £6460. It had been subject to quite a few modifications but, given the artist connection and provenance, that still looks a pretty good buy to me.
