I believe it is great guitar ... and you are nice guy :)
I am just asking about this "funny" guitar ... if anybody seen something like this ... because it is my first (not only one ... I have nice collection of vintage guitars ... most of them jazz).
So ... just wondering WTF is this funny "L serie" ... not selling a guitar or trying to prove that it is "real thing" ... just asking :)

Except it didn't leave Fullerton with that Buzz Feiten type nut.

Pretty sweet though!

As another owner of an L-series Strat-'65-I can state positively that that guitar is no L Series and not even Fender.Futurama -if the same company- has been around since the late 50's early 60's as George Harrison played one in the very early Beatle days as at the time it looked vaguely Strat-like.

With twin string trees, a CBS-era decal and those bridge saddles?

I remain unconvinced.

That looks like a late 60s/early 70s decal, but the wrong shape headstock for that decal.

I like the color, though.

It looks to be a nice guitar and perhaps it actually is a '65. But it's not in its original 1965 configuration. Some under-the-hood pics and a shot of the neck heel would likely reveal all.
