I have a 25th 1979 anniversary stratocaster

well post some pictures lets see ti

i will as soon as i find out how

does anybody know how to post photos ?, i can email them

Yes I do, thank you for asking......


Okay, first you need to use a photo account like photbucket or other photo site and upload the picture from your computer to an account there.
Once you have it uploaded, then open the picture, do a left mouse click and in the box that will come up choose :"View image information" and left click it.
This will bring open a new box that should show the picture and the location script, hit the Ctrl + C at the same time, this will copy it.
now once you have a post open here on the top line are9 brown box's, click on the one marked "Img" this will put the image script on the post, all you need to do now is hit Ctrl + V and it will paste in the copy of the address for the image script.


It is far easier then it sounds and after a couple time through this it will be second nature.

I hope this helps.

Congratulations. Is a great guitar. A guy have this model too, and I noticed is very, very heavy. ¿Is the body Ash or Alder?.

Unlike the CBS-era Strats of the period, which all had a 3-bolt neck attachment and Schaller "F" tuners, the 25th Anniversary model of 1979 featured a 4-bolt neck plate and Sperzel machine heads. This guitar came in two distinct finishes, Pearl White and Porsche Silver. These major cosmetic changes would mark the end of an era. Later, Fender dropped the large headstock and the Bullet truss rod system, which were introduced in 1965 and 1972.

I had the silver model for a while. I remember it came with a certificate of authenticity signed by Mrs Fender and one of the Fender big wigs (Dale Hyatt of George Fullerton, I don't recall). I kept the certificate when I sold the guitar. I'll look for it and post it if I find it.

I remember those well; I never saw a white one - I believe they only made a couple of hundred in that color. The paint cracked and peeled too easily and it was replaced by the silver version.

I also remember them being pretty heavy so they probably had ash bodies - seems like that was all Fender was using back then.
