1969 Olympic White Fender Strat With Maple Cap Neck
I'll start with a simple question.. You walk into a Vintage Guitar Dealers Shop.. Home.. at a Booth at a Guitar Swap Meet. Out for dis[play are a hand full of Fender Strats.. A 1954, maybe a 57... 59... 1963 etc.. Then you see a 1968/69 All Original Olympic White.. Aged to Patina Yellow, with a Maple Cap Neck. The finish is played off the backside.. because it Must have it.. What you going to want to play the Most? Simple.. Many never get to see a Jimi Hendix Wood Stock Era Whited/Maple/Cap... let alone play one..All them other year's, youll see more than 1 at any Guitar Show. I'll be willing to wager... a 69 like this.. You can go a whole year and not see even one that is for sale.. Not Many were made... Collectors don't want to sell. They are Money in "THE BANK" Longer you hang on.. More $ comes to you.....Plus you get to Play your Money!
Every want a under 7lb 100% 1968/1969 .. Only One On Earth.. Vintage Tone/Vibe ROCKET...
Weight is 6-3/4lbs.. That is Feather Weight.. Rare as heck...
