1982 Fender Vintage '57 reissue Stratocaster

 

I have owned this guitar three times over the past 25 years.   I call her "Lucky".

This all original 1982 Fender AVRI Vintage '57 Stratocaster first came to me from a friend that knew I collect these.  V00 serial numbers especially.   This one looked so cool that I did not want to sell it.  So I listed it on my website for $9,650.   It sold to a repeat customer on lay away.   Economy crashed and buyer backed out.  In the mean time another buyer from Kentucky turns up and buys the guitar for $9,650,   For 12 years I looked for another Fullerton '57 that looked as good as Lucky.   Then one day I find one on eBay and contact the seller who tells me that I once owned this guitar!   He found it in a pawn shop in Atlanta, GA.  He was the guitar tech for Tedechi -Trucks Band.  When Lucky arrived back to me after all those years it was in a non original case from the mid 60s that sold for $500.  This is why I call this guitar Lucky.

This thing looks better and better the closer you look.   REAL honest play wear and aging.  NOT a fake relic job.

Comes with period correct Fender tweed case also in rough condition.  No odors.

 

Please feel free to ask questions.  I am happy to help.

Thank You,

Joe
