I see where our old friend and Doobie Brother Jeff "Skunk" Baxter is working for the Pentagon now as a top secret missile defense adviser! Taking it to the streets. Jesus is just alright by me. Read about Skunk here: http://guitar.about.com/library/weekly/aa061801a.htm As far as famous guitar players go, Mr. Baxter is a national treasure. Far out!
Check this out! I saw this on the news yesterday and ran down the facts. A guy bought this guitar 12 years ago for $50 and sold it on Ebay last week for $47,200!
Can you believe that?
I get calls every day from people that want to sell their guitar. I only buy USA made and lately I found some deals too good to pass up. Coincidently all are Fender Stratocaster reissues. Two are custom hand built REPLICAS that have USA top of the line parts. The rest are eighties USA reissues. I get these guitars for my students that are ready to move up to a professional guitar. Great deals for my students. I can not find enough!
Here are the latest Stratocasters:
1989 USA Fender Vintage '62 Stratocaster reissue in rare Ocean Turquoise Will be here 24 Dec 05.
How about a one owner all original with hangtags, strap, three way switch, unused polish cloth, tweed case in good condition 3-24-87 USA Fender Vintage '57 Stratocaster in very rare Lake Placid Blue nitro!!! Tell me this isn't the best looking Strat you have ever seen!
http://www.answers.com/topic/hank-marvin Most guitar players
now days have no idea who Hank Marvin is but we owe him a lot. He
influenced many of the great guitar players today. What we have
here is a
high end copy of Hanks favorite Stratocaster. Rare maple cap neck and
alder body are American custom made. This guitar has some of the nicest
fret work you will ever find. Anodized aluminum pickguard looks great
against the Fiesta Red custom color. This guitar was built in the USA by
an expert luthier in California who spared no expense in making an affordable
high quality professional guitar. Weighs a TON!
1957 Fender Stratocaster REPLICA in cool sea foam green.
8-11-86 USA Fender Vintage '57 Reissue Stratocaster in rare black nitro SUPER PLAYER and great investment. All original. A REAL Blackie that sounds just like Clapton's!
8-6-82 USA Fullerton Vintage '57 reissue Stratocaster with low V00132X serial number! GIANT frets. SUPER player!
1988 USA Fender Vintage '57 reissue Stratocaster Dream Stratocaster!
