Much maligned for so long by many. Now they're so old, they're cool!!
Post up your heavy, big headstock, bullet trussrod beauties.
Anyway, here's my 1973 Strat that I think I posted here. Been working on the plastics. In these pics it now has a correct '73 guard. I pulled some knobs and PU covers off of 12 year old American Standard Strat. They had some good color and patina to them. Don't think I'll go all out to pony up for anymore old plastic though. There's so much non original about the guitar anyway. I just want all the parts to fit together from an age/look standpoint.
Also included are two VERY CBS era Fenders. My 1973 Telecaster Deluxe and my 1976 Telecaster Custom. Both fantastic guitars.
