Some of those late 70's Strats could sustain for days.I had a '79 lefty that was a mirror image of the one pictured.If the bidding stays around the current bid,someone is going to get one heck of a bargain and a great guitar.

I had a '79 burst and there's a lot about that guitar that looks questionable to me. That's not even the right case. That might explain the price.

I've got a 74 Strat that I still play from time to time. Great guitar that never let me down.

Like what? I have a '78 and nothing jumps out. I'd need to see any marking on the heel and neck pocket. A quick peek under the saddles would help.
