40 STRATOCASTER’s por el 40 ANIVERSARIO
A finales de 2008 se celebró el 40 ANIVERSARIO DE FENDER STRATOCASTER y nos hicimos eco aquí en nuestra web. Con motivo de esa celebración se editó un vídeo y un libro en los que aparecía JEFF LYNNE junto a otros muchos artistas.
Acaba de volver a editarse una segunda tirada de ese libro y de darse a conocer que salieron a la venta 40 GUITARRAS CONMEMORATIVAS NUMERADAS por este acontecimiento realizadas a mano y con placas grabadas en oro con la inscripción de este aniversario. Estas 40 guitarras fueron adquiridas sólo por los artistas que aparecieron en la película y personas que participaron en la producción de la misma.
La número 1 fue subastada y alcanzó la cifra de 32.000 libras que pagó NICK MASON de Pinnacle Records, siendo esta guitarra la más valiosa STRATOCASTER del mundo después de la de Hendrix.
La número 2 la firmaron todos los artistas que adquirieron las demás e incluye la firma de JEFF LYNNE junto a la de GEORGE HARRISON, lo cual indica que tiene una en su poder aunque no sabemos el número de esa guitarra.
