I would pay the same price I always pay for a used electric guitar.....150 bucks.philboyd studge said:Geez Jimi, it was a long time ago that I rode my bike over to the factory a couple of times to see them make 'stick' guitars as my dad called them.
If the material was vinyl and not ABS plastic it could its color and condition a little better.
I just can't believe the prices some vintage guitars bring. It brings up an interesting question; taking collectability and speculation out of the mix, how much would you pay for a mint '55 strat that you actually intended to play? I'd go about $2000.
Of course I would sell it for $2000 if possible.
I have never played a '55 strat, so, I don't know if they are any better, as far as playability goes, than the current crop of brand new strats.
