I have owned a 1986 Strat "E" Series guitar since about 1987.
I bought it advertised as a 1962 re-issue.

It has the 7 1/4 inch radius, maple / rosewood neck, with no walnut stripe on the back.
I believe it is Lake Placid Blue, not Ocean Turquoise.
It has the "spaghetti" Fender logo.
The serial number is at the base of the neck.

This is by far one of the finest Strats I've ever played; thus the longevity of ownership.
It is Ultra Clean condition, and about 5 years ago, I installed Fender Samarium Cobalt pickups. VERY nice.

Can anyone tell me what this guitar might be worth? see below.

As the tuning machines and nut are not original, the controls have been diddled with, and it's missing its string tree, probably somewhat less than $500.

A pity......

I believe untampered it would bring $500 at most, and the buyer would be getting excellent value for his money..
