You lucky dog. You must understand how blessed you are. Most of us will never even be in the same room as an instrument of that caliber. Much less own one. Congratulations.
Made up for you Chris what an amazing guitar sounds fantastic well deserved you work hard enough for it mate guess that it won't be given away in a competition then 👍👍👍👍
3 months ago... I also purchased my dream '63 Strat. Nothing quite feels like an original even compared to Fender Custom Shop heavy relic stuff I have. Love and enjoy!
@@lush462 No, it really is something different. Both in sound and feel, it has this something. I was just lucky enough to find one in a reasonable somewhat price.
Nothing feels like been rich enough to buy one I think you mean...lol.......I've played a freinds 50s strat and it's no better than his 80s tokai copy that he actually uses..or my ibanez 80s roadstar Japanese copy...when played side by side.....he keeps it because it belonged to his dad and of course because of its value...he's always bemused how everyone is impressed that he owns one and thinks that he's rich spoilt man....lol...my opinion is that it's the kudos of ownership that the main attraction...and no one would ever admit that its no better than a modern version as that would be like admitting you are happy to be ripped off...the same thing with "designer" clothing...£100 for a shirt no better than a £20 one...that said he did at one point think of installing a humbucker in the bridge a few years ago and I'm like don't mate...just buy a super strat lol
@@paulcartwright2810 well I am definitely not rich and far from it, so you are totally wrong there. And to be honest I always thought that fender is producing the best they have ever made right now.... until I played this L series. Like it or not it has a reputation for a reason, maybe not for everyone but my choice and opinion is it is different for what ever reason.
Congratulations! 👍⭐️ 🎸 Wow! Beautiful! And REAL! Lot of stories in that tone wood! Man, if that STRAT could talk! Love seeing that ‘63 well played and honestly worn; truly a relic done by blood, sweat, tears and tone!!! Treat her well Brother! Fantastic sound!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A friends dad took us over to one of his war buddies house one time. Dude had a total man cave garage with a juke box and pool table and a full bar. I was around 13 maybe had just turned 14 but among all the toys in this guys garage was a red hard tail original sixties strat. I dont remember what year he said but i waaaant to say 62 or 63. He bought it new the year it came out. It was such an odd orangish red and now i know it was possibly aged nitro making it look like that.... but he was oddly laid back about letting me play it. Plugged into some insane tube monster fender from the same era that i had no clue how to get dist out of. Well come to find out just dime it out but that would not be an option. But even then i remember being in reverence and dude just being like "ah go ahead i never play it any more." So weird. He did make me learn sleep walk... the old guitar piece from the fifties i believe...
Congratulations on your purchase of the Stratocaster Wishing you all the best May you have Many Great Hours of Playing There is nothing More Exciting than Finding & Purchasing the Dream Guitar you always Wanted I just purchased My Dream Guitar I just purchased the Fender Custom Shop Eric Clapton Stratocaster This is My Ultimate Supreme Stratocaster Chris Many MANY Happy GLORIOUSLY Hours and Days of Playing your Gorgeous Beautiful Fender Stratocaster Wishing you all the Greatest blessings for you Chris
@@djcurtis9547 Hi mate, Unfortunately, that other comment you replied to was a spam comment. Thank you so much for taking the time to say these nice words and hope you have a great day, really appreciate the support 🎸
Congrats on your new vintage Strat. So beautiful. I missed out on a few pre-CBS Jazzmasters when they were reasonably priced and am kicking myself for not buying them. I have a AVRI 62 Jazzmaster which is very good but wish I bought the vintage ones. I also love Mosrite and have two vintage USA models and one Japanese model and had two Japanese models before that. Try a Mosrite if you haven't yet. Vintage ones are magical and Japanese ones are very good. I think in the UK they are not easy to find. I see in the video or the other video there was a Mosrite. Did you try it out?
Half the vintage ones I’ve played have been great other half not so much. But man that three tone with that killer wear has the vibe I think it’s a winner.
So you went to Gothenburg and didn't visit me for coffee? Next time mate! Congratulations on the super cool guitar, and great playing as always. 👊 Did you check out No.1 Guitarshop in Gothenburg? Another pretty cool store with a lot of vintage stuff.
Congrats for your new strat my friend ! It looks and sounds fantastic! I have his sister here and i know how these beasts are 😁 You deserve it and will make it sounds like it should😎
Dude that is killer!! That is a dream guitar to have no doubt! My Nash 63 strats are about as close as I can get to playing the real deal in a way but I know it’s not the same! Enjoy it!!
I bought a '63 Strat in 1991 for $1750. It was swamp ash Mary Kaye and weighed a little over 6 pounds. Yes, you can cry now....I still do. Lol. Congrats!
I've only ever played one vintage guitar. A 67 strat. Really was not impressed. Played nice enough but there was a certain something lacking. Ironically the best strat I've played was a 98 one. Hey each to their own. If they can sell em at crazy prices then good luck to them
Hi Jay, I can’t remember the exact name for it, though it was a little spring to tighten the tension on the trem arm! I asked if we could take it out as I didn’t end up liking it 😝
Very nice guitar. It looks like it's been refretted with jumbo wire thank God. I wonder if the radius of the fretboard was changed? Hopefully yes from the 7.5 inches to something much flatter. Still a great guitar and has mojo . Very cool. I'm here in the states and if you want to see more vintage Strats check out Norms rare guitars in Tennessee. Very cool Strats. Great video guys. Great playing, sounding and killer looking strat! God speed! ♥️🤘♥️
Your opinion is interesting - have you not played a Strat with the original frets? They are so smooth. And 7.25" whats 'wrong' with that original radius?
@@neilritson7445 I have played with original 7.5 radius and small original frets and the notes choke out when playing leads because of the radius. That's why companies like Charvels did so well when they took Strats and changed the radius and added jumbo frets. Easier to play for sure.
@@hoosierdaddy2308 I have a couple of Japanese Strats and have had no problems despite these features. I’d keep it original as that is its heritage. I agree the flatter boards seem easier to play though!
I had a 63 Strat that I sold back in the '80s. That was a mistake. Hope you get the one with the B neck that's the best one in my opinion. Great guitars. Good luck with it.🙂
@@TheOKEFENOKI that would be okay if I was looking for one because that's the one I prefer. But they're out of my price range now so it's not really an issue that's for sure. But you never know could stumble upon one someday.🙂
@@Dan-no4tlit seems you misunderstood my comment Dan. From the early '60s to the early '70s, Fender referred specifically to the nut width of its instrument necks using the letters A (1 ½”), B (1 5/8″), C (1 ¾”) and D (1 7/8″). But 99% of the pre CBS Necks are B Necks.
@@TheOKEFENOKI I didn't actually know that. I just know the one that I had was a b neck and that was my favorite Stratocaster ever. I'm an old guy so I had quite a few of them. Including a couple 1954s. In the 60s and early '70s you could pick up 50s or 60s Strat for a few hundred dollars. I just need a time machine to go back and pick up a few.
I am sure Jimi Hendrix spirit lives in that guitar. It sound only tells truths. Amazing guitar congrats! I can write place right letters I am from Finland. So Borsen music store in Göteborg.
Congratulations! I bought my first pre CBS Strat in 1990. A '64 in Surf Green with Gold Hardware. I still have it. I went pro in 1991 and used it on 95% of all recordings and live Gigs. I bought my second pre CBS Strat in 2007. A '63 in Sunburst. Nothing beats the Original. Yours has the original Finish. But what about the Electronics and the Plastic? Maybe it's the lighting in the Video, but the Pickguard doesn't look like a Celluloid "Green Guard" to me. Is it refretted? And please be more careful with that Trem Arm. They will break. Use a new one and keep the Original in the Case. And you will have to learn to deal with all the envious persons that keep talking Shit about Vintage Guitars without ever having played one.😆✌
Thanks so much for the nice comment. That’s awesome about the 64’ in surf green!! & 63’!! That’s correct about the electronics and plastic. It has that lovely mint green ageing! I didn’t know that about the whammy bar so thanks for the heads up 😬
@@PedalPawn my pleasure.😊 I payed 1380€ for the '64 in 1990. Inflation not taken into account.😆 I don't have to tell you what's it worth today. I broke the original Whammy Bar. I break 2, or 3 every year. If it happens, don't drill it out! It will ruin the Sustain Block. I tap the Block with a small Hammer in the right Spot and it slowly comes out.
Ironically Hendrix wasn't particularly 'gear oriented' and typically played the contemporary, late '60s, big headstock CBS Strats that are now considered to be such crap. He never said, no I need a '63, they were so much better!
@@PedalPawn 😂 I have a ‘76 myself & love it. It was dad’s, so it’s not quite as worn, but the headstock has that cool yellowing & there’s a chip here & there. Old Strats are great. Enjoy!
Any luthier will tell you the same thing: shattered wood, aged arm, very old year, and they mystify the context to exaggerate the price. They put it in a room that sells and people buy without thinking. And the context psychologically, makes you "hear" that it sounds different. In the words of victor wooten: The instrument will never make music, you make it.
I have never understood the vintage guitar thing. Is a Strat from 63 a cool guitar? Absolutely. But tonewood is not a thing on solid bodies, and the pickups are, by modern standards, above average but nothing more. Apart from the age of the instrument, I really think It's all just hype.
Hi Roy, It is all a bit bizarre isn’t it. I’ve played a lot of vintage guitars that don’t really make sense, though quite honestly this one just feels right 🎸
@@ElmarSprong But the feel has nothing to do with the age of the guitar but rather with how it was constructed. For that money you can get a luthier to make you the exact same guitar, same specs exactly, but with better pups and tuners.
@@roytofilovski9530 It's not always the specs that make a guitar, Kind of the romantic aspect of an instrument, In the world of brand new Lamborghinis and Ferraris, some people want to drive a classic Jaguar, because it makes them feel a certain way, to each their own!
Cool guitar. But why is every vintage guitar player afraid of talking about the price????? It would make the vi tage guitar marked a lot more transparent if we would talk about prices, just my opinion. Anyway, cool guitar Chris!
For those of you who dont know who the guy working in the store is. He usually plays guitar in Johan Segerborn's videos (the Marshall guy on TH-cam)
You lucky dog. You must understand how blessed you are. Most of us will never even be in the same room as an instrument of that caliber. Much less own one. Congratulations.

The bummer is, I’m older than this 1963 Stratocaster lol😅
That looks flippin awesome! A dream strat right there. I love my ‘64. Most resonant strat I’ve ever played. It would be very interesting to compare!
Thanks so much mate! And that’s awesome, I bet the 64’ screams!! 🔥🔥
Once, I compared my '71 to a '65, and mine was better !

Cool guitar. But why is every vintage guitar player afraid of talking about the price????? It would make the vi tage guitar marked a lot more transparent if we would talk about prices, just my opinion. Anyway, cool guitar Chris!
Thanks a lot Michael! I was tempted to mention the price, though it tends to stir some negative emotions on such large purchases it seems 🎸
Oh damn! Well wear amigo!
🔥🎸❤️
