New score - fender strat

[levantin]

Hey guys. I got that strat I was asking about. Now that I've played I'm in two minds over selling it or keeping it. It's 1981, all original and virtually unplayed. On the other hand it could get me another USA Jackson. Debate :ROTF:

I know, I know, this thread is worthless without pics yada yada. Here ya go you guitar pornoholics.

Cool looks, but I'm not a fan of the 70s headstock.

+1.

[VitaminG]

ah, my eyes!



I like it. Reminds me of the old Chandler ads in the guitar mags back in the 90s. Only thing I don't like is the 3-bolt neckplate.

after owning a american fender strat and regretting the decision every day of my life, no expensive fender strat will appeal to me. so, I say sell it. on the other hand I am a strong proponent of the "every guitarist should own a strat" idea. so, sell it and get a MIM cheapo strat.

[rjohnstone]

Hate the headstock. Never cared for it.
Ditch the bitch and buy a Jackson. Get a MIM Strat to kick around on though.

I say keep the damn thing.. This guitar is beautiful and the yellow color = pimpin. No mexican strat will even get close the the one you have, not with looks and not with sound.

I had a 79 strat...loved the neck..but hated the weight. I ended up selling it only to replace it with 2 other strats (cant live without them)...if you can find another replacement that sounds as good..but will cost you less then sell it...otherwise keep her

[shobet]

Keep it, look at her! I can't remember seeing another yellow one, what's the colour called?

[levantin]

Monaco yellow I think.

[emperor_black]

Keep it, look at her! I can't remember seeing another yellow one, what's the colour called?

Ferrari yellow?

[shobet]

Does the bridge have a cover, I can't tell from your pics?

[Speiro]

The colour is wild, but I like it. Keep it.

[levantin]

Does the bridge have a cover, I can't tell from your pics?

Yes it does.

[shobet]

You are NEVER going to find one as clean as that and with the original ashtray cover again.
Keep it!
