70s Strats Are They Really That Bad?

Stratocasters from the 70s. Should you buy one?

I just bought a 1979 Strat. I'm really digging it, and like you said, all the "issues" don't bother me at all. Mine is 9.7 lbs. Heavy! Funny, as soon as you demonstrated the neck jerk, I did it on mine and heard it click into place. Thank you!

Cool! A great start into the vintage guitar world.

Good enough for Blackmore, Malmsteen, Trower, The Edge, Tipton, Hendrix, good enough for me.

[@TheGiggingGuitarPlayer]

Me too. The best one I ever played was a 61, though. It was scary good, playing and sounding.
