and I've heard so much about vintage I'd just like to experience for myself what all the fuss is about
EDIT: Clarky you are such a nob
I've also had no hand cramps thanks to the chunky neck which is nice.
It's funny getting oddly nostalgic for things I hated in 1979...
When I had a bit of money "spare" I was thinking about getting a Strat from 1971, my year of birth, but it was such a minefield I didn't get round to it with enough focus.
With a new hose on the way that idea has gone out of the window!
Got any 'ose?
BTW, does anyone else have neck lacquer which falls off in chunks? Both of my CBS necks do...

The aformentioned interesting neck pocket and mine is a pretty good example - only out by a MM or two:
And the frets - a little low but not too bad:
Mine plays pretty well however the first thing I did was to swap out the whole pickguard and pickups for some Van Zants blues pickups - life is much better now
I've noticed some of the finish on mine is getting a little sticky in places. It seems to be a fairly common thing for some reason.
Come on @NPP we want to see it
I bought mine in the US and it was by far the best playing one I could find - I think the 70's headstock looks amazing - and mine is not that heavy, well I dont think so comparing it to my Les Paul's anyway!
Now it's got some decent pickups in it sounds great!!!
