Fender Vintage / Ebay

[Amp Kat]

Are you guys seeing what these guys are asking for Fendet Vintage parts.
Saw some blue astor caps coupling on there for like 20 bucks a pop and Fender Strat pots are insane. Bruce should be licking his chops.

If I had a 1962 Stratocaster that was in very good condition, but had newer pots that were replaced in the '70s, an $800 investment in a set of NOS pots could increase the value of the guitar by $3K or $4K. That is of course if I were willing to mislead the buyer into thinking that the pots were original to the guitar.

When a 1959 Gibson Les Paul is worth $250k, you can see why an original 1959 Gibson switch knob can sell for $1k.

This is just craziness driven by collector money.
