Hello good people :) Well why I`m posting here .. Because I`m in doubt . I got some money and I got 2 choices. Fender Special Edition Light Ash Stratocaster made in Korea or used Fender USA Strat made in 1979. I know this old strat could worth the money , but how long he will be playable. Well hope I`ll get some good answers :)

How long it'll be playable depends on how much it's been played already. The 70's era strats weren't the best quality either. They had quite a few production inconsistencies back then. Just because it's old doesn't mean it's good. I happen to like an ash bodied strat and they make some nice ones in Japan. You really just need to play them both enough to know which feels and sounds best to you.
