In 1977 I bought 2 1964 fender Stratocaster guitars. Both for $750.
A few years later a friend of a friend needed money and sold me both his 1963 fender telecasters.
Each guitar is worth north of $20k today.
You still play any of them? Have a favorite?
Yes I do play them, constantly.
For decades I played the white Stratocaster, because that’s the color Jimi Hendrix played. The blue one pretty much lived in its case for decades because the color was in my opinion, uncool. I brought it out recently and people flipped for it, said the color was very cool so, now I play that too.
The black telecaster is my all time favorite.
That’s awesome. Not too many things we own today can appreciate in monetary value to reflect the personal value we got out of them. Though I suspect the personal value can never really be quantified for you.
