Mines my 1979 25th anniversary Strat.
Bought it when I was 15(27 now)for $150 the neck was broken off it from a Jimi-wanna-be and the finish had been stripped off and refinished in natural.The body was cracked down the middle.And it had been routed for a humbucker,which was cracked allong w/ the 5 way switch from the wanna-be-Jimi smashing it recieved.
Once I got it I had the necks heel and body repaired.Installed a new JB humbucker in the bridge w/ coil split and 57'RI strat pup in middle and replaced all the pots and switch.Then a few years ago wore the frets out and had it refretted w/ Jumbo railroad track sized frets.
The neck is all yellowed now and theres nicks all over it that have turned black from sweat and finish cracks in the body that are black too.
But its got this mellow tone no other strat I've played has.It ain't worth but a couple hundred bucks but I wouldn't trade it for nothin.

So whats the story behind your main axe?
