Curious more than anything, and I hope she has a happy owner.
I bought a '78 Antigua Strat with maple neck from Whittier Music when I was in high school.
I later traded it for an Anniversary model at LaMirada Music. I didn't like the neck on the '79, the pickups were weak-sauce. I knew I couldn't "fix" it without ruining the value, but I couldn't afford two Strats. Bob agreed to trade back.
Maybe 2 years later, I traded for a Kramer DMZ-2000 and haven't seen her since.

I'm just curious if anyone on the forum has her.
Somewhat unique in that it had a full set of DiMarzio SDS-1 pickups (creme), and there was a discoloration and softened-scratched paint on the top of the upper bout. The paint damage was from, believe it or not, playing it shirtless when I had a sunburn after spraying down with Solarcain,

Anybody seen her? I hope she has a good home, and now you have a story to go with the paint damage!
