i want a replica of john frusciante’s (from red hot chili peppers) 1962 fender strat (3 tone sunburst). it has a very beat-up vintage appeal to it & i love it. here’s a picture for what i mean by “beat-up” and “vintage” look:

by saying vintage, i am mainly talking about that beat up body & neck of the guitar with the worn out edges from natural (or synthetic for a strat to buy) wear and tear. the other vintage parts (pickguard, pickups, knobs, etc.) can be bought. i just need the actual body & neck. any suggestions on where i can find this guitar?

new guitars (unused) are fine along with vintage guitars. an exact replica of the john frusciante strat would, of course, be better.

10 points for best answer.

thanks guys.

Anybody have a ballpark estimate for the value of my old Gibson guitar with serial number 70078254?? I got it as a gift from a family friend with the original case. I’d say the guitar is in average shape, it’s playable and sounds fantastic. All original with minimal wear and tear. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I know what the serial numbers mean, just want to know the approximate value.
