Original Description:

Hi, This is sort of my version of a Go Fund me listing. I’m hoping a beneficent individual willunderstand and help a fellow musician. After months of gut wrenching torture, Irealized there is only one solution to my situation. And that is to sell myoriginal owner 1963 Fender strat and 1960 98RT Guild amp. This pair was aChristmas gift to me from my parents. (originally to be there Christmas 1962but arrived in Feb of ’63.About theguitar: It was refinished in a blue metallic lacq...uer around 1972. It has a NEW refretand set up from a well known luthier from NYC, Ric McCurdy. (he just built aD’Angelico for Elliot Easton to the tune of $26K.)  The neck pick-up was replaced with a DiMarzioafter the orig stopped working around ‘74 (I have the orig pick-up to go withthe guitar.) Original nut. Other than that the guitar is original. The trem armand bridge cover may be from theearly 70’s Over thedecades I tried a 5 pos switch but I put the orig 3 way back in. Originalstamped saddles, One crack in the pickguard. No extra switch holes or routs etcetc. possibly some replaced screws or countersinks. I tried to identify thecase. It has a bronzie, smooth finish, leatherette ends, no pocket, and aleather strap and button.  A local musicstore said it may be early 60’s ? About theamp: The amp is a year or so older than the guitar. They were sold as a pair(and I really would love for the new owner keep them as a pair. There’s someripped tolex at the front bottom. The footswitch has to be reconnected. When itwas in storage, in the 70’s, mice nibbled on some wires. I replaced the wiresfor functionality. But they should be professionally repaired. The last time Iplayed it (a couple of years ago) everything worked fine, even the reverb. Overthe years the back panels were misplaced.   Sorry Iwon’t be able to take great pics or take the guitar apart to answer questionsbut, this guitar hasn’t left my possession in all these years.So…..IREALLY need your help out there. Property taxes, med bills etc etc This is myonly way out. I know I will hate myself, losing my pal of over 55 years!!!!!
