This was a real beauty. I bought this Strat around 1982. The finish had cracked like an eggshell. I decided to strip the guitar which revealed a beautiful natural ash. I used tongue oil to give it that vintage glow, added a Floyd Rose trem. I sold this guitar around 1986-87 to a boyfriend of my sister's. I have been honestly thinking about trying to re-create this guitar as well. Fender has just begun manufacturing a '70s throwback line with maple necks and large headstocks. I will most likely have to replace all of the plastic, because these guitars only come in white. 3 knobs, 3 pg covers, a trem cap and pickguard (all black) will run around $30.
