Fantastic! think about how much history has happened since 1954 and that strat not only survived all those brutal winters and summers etc BUT still looks fantastic! Just like Norm! lol Thanks Jen and Michael for showing us these amazing instruments!

Besides his killer playing, Michael made a great point that I hadn't considered before. A guitar that was built in 1954, designed for the music of the time, can be used for any form of music that came after it. Remarkable engineering.

There’s a video on this page where they talk about how Norm wanted to go about restoring this one. I recommend watching that, it’s a fun video. I think there are two parts, the first where they discuss what to do and then part 2 showing the restoration results. Also Lemmo here demoed this guitar also in the condition is arrived in with the previous refin. So this finish you see here is the third time it’s been finished and the second refin. Also it has brand new frets here as well. I can’t remember what else they did. That’s why it looks so clean since it was just restored

For sure a very cool guitar, but to what this one will cost,totally out of my reality.

These reissues are so rare,i just found one on Reverb in Japan.
