Saw this for sale today. Is it a piece of junk or something worth bothering with?

All the ad says is "Old strat body cool don't what make"

    That's not a Fender body, 1969 or otherwise.

    If I had to guess, based on the multiple pieces of slightly flamed ash and some of the routing shaping, I would say possibly 1970s Matsumoku.

    also genuine Fender bodies from 1969 were not stamped "1969" in the neck pocket - although that's the least of that bodies worries

    I think it might actually say A 969 rather than 1969 anyway.
