FENDER Stratocaster, ca 1959 with a '66 Jazzmaster neck, the
neck plate serial # 98848, this has a sunburst Fender factory
refinish done ca 1965-66 with bold Fender markings stamped
into the body, neck is stamped “13 Sept 66 B”, someone has
carefully overlaid the word “stratocaster” onto the “jazzmaster"
name in the decal, bound board with block inlays, ‘single line'
Kluson tuners, pick guard appears to be from 1966, off white
that’s aged a bit but is lacking the metal shielding plate,
“black bottom" pickups, 1 of the pots is dated Feb, 1963
and another appears to be the same but code is covered in solder,
the third is a newer, has original saddles, bridge and switch,
the body is clearly older- '57-59 as it has the larger cavity
typical of 1954-1961 before the shoulder was added in the control
cavity, there’s a blue penciled date written in the middle pickup
route which could be read as 1957 or 1959, there are bits of blue
paint here and there and other specs of red and gold paint
testifying to the body having been other colors in it's life,
the refinish is perfect and was done by Fender and exhibits the tone
of the sunburst color that we see in ‘65-’66. All in all this guitar
looks like it was pieced together from a ca 1959 body, perhaps a 1963
wiring harness, and a ‘66 Jazzmaster neck, with original ~'65 case,
