Currently on eBay (uk) - 1954 FENDER STRATOCASTER
 
 
I'm no guitar buff, but this looks the dog's bollock
 
 
Can't wait to see what it ends up going for.
 
 
 

I have a 56.  This is an interesting auction. Might bid.

Bo, if you're serious, I'm only an hour away from Bristol if the guy doesn't want to ship it.
 
If you won it, I'd be more than happy to pick it up for you and then take care of the shipping details.
 
 

In that case Straummy, juts bid on it, pay for and ship it to me.

I don't know... That serial number sounds a bit shady.  Heck, even "I" know that 07** isn't a four-digit number!

1954?  Pfft.  Too old!  Give me something newer!

You can't say fairer than that...

That's way too cheap.  I'd be wary.

It's just a starting bid with seven days to go.  I'm guessing the final will be about triple that.

Maybe more if the Asian markets take an interest.  It's pretty nutty out there now for anything before 1965 from Fender.  And don't even mention that era Gibsons.  What's both funny and heartbreaking to me is all the different pieces I owned and sold for literally nothing back when.  As I've mentioned before...my best friend still has a 64 Strat I traded around 1970 for a Morley wah-wah pedal they were selling for $225 or so.  He bought it after my trade for $250.  His last offer for it was $5000.00 and it would have been more except the finish was stripped off.  Elsewise it's all original.  Dang!
