Notice the backside of the neck, vintage tuners and who knows what pups are in it?

Forum member, Jeff, is from RI, maybe he'll go check it out for you. :wink:

Hi Mike,

Looks like Duke is sporting a solid rosewood
neck on that strat, Very nice indeed.
I took a look at his tour schedule, a hard workin man.

Cheers.

I think if Duke wanted to sell his guitar, Duke could do it. Maybe I am just a product of the time, but I smell manutia in the air on this one.

It does look more like a Road Worn?

Unless Duke has become a crack head which I highly doubt, something just does not sit right with me on this. What is Duke going to do with $800. Why wouldnt he just sign it and give it to some charity event where it would raise more money .The guy is an ace player and gigs on a regular basis besides doing instructional dvds and books . The whole thing just makes no sense to me.

I thought road worn when I first looked at it. Does not make sense.

Look at the guys "other auctions".

A few more guitars of Duke Robillard's (allegedly) and some great Fender items that I might be able to use. :)

I vote Road Worn.

And it doesn't capture "that 50's vibe" with the rosewood neck, does it?

If you're wondering, why not drop Duke a note and ask if those are his guitars?
