rct Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I'm not normally at all a vintage guy, but that thing is in great shape. If it had some good initials on the neck block I'd actually consider buying that thing. I don't recognize the name on the back of the pickguard, I'll have to look in Smith book and see if anyone mentioned. And they didn't show any pencil scrawl on the block, should be a name or initials there even as late as 63. Could be a Leo, and I'd give 'em...at least 15k for a CLF guitar. rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub-T-123 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I was thinking kinda the same thing. That looks awesome. The white is a custom color of course and makes the guitar much more valuable. I think Mary may have been the person that made/installed the pickups and electronics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retired Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Beautiful, I'm with 4H, someday I'm going to get one as I love their looks. But it won't be that one. I've never tried a Strat or a Tele on a amp yet. Someday though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelT Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 It's in beautiful condition for the age of the guitar. I'm fairly certain my wife would have a problem if I were to buy a guitar that costs almost as much as her car. I'm not sure if it's worth that much or not but it's great for the age.

Twang Gang Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Nice looking original piece. What is it worth? Like any vintage one owner used item (car, guitar, antique) it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. It's value is different to different people and there aren't a lot of comparable items. I don't think he'll get the asking price, but you never know.

charlie brown Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Yeah, it's a nice version of a "Hardtail" "L" series Strat. I too, still have Pre-CBS my "L" series, Strat, which was a birthday present, from my Mom, some 53 years ago! It's "pricesless" to me! CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L5Larry Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Yeah, it's a nice version of a "Hardtail" "L" series Strat. I too, still have Pre-CBS my "L" series, Strat, Yep, I still got my old Strat. SN 51XXX (1960). Bought it used many, many years ago. Scraped up every dime I could find, and still had to borrow some to pay the $195 price tag. I thought I paid too much at the time for a "second hand" guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
