Man...I passed on one in Blue (is that blue or green or black?) in 1978 for $400.
I was 18...my CAR only cost me $400!!
Other "passes" from about the same time:
'66 Jaguar LPB Bound/Dots $400
'67 Jazzmaster Surf Green / matching head $450.00
'57 Duosonic $150
A new Strat was about $400 in 1978!
Competition Stripes make them play FASTER.

Seems like I need to get myself a time machine. 400$ for a vintage offset back in 1978? WOW
and that double neck looks really cool.

those are cool, you see the odd Mosrite around my parts, I hard there was a factory here until the 70's
It's not about the gear! It's about you, your hands, your imagination, your feelings.
