Hello everybody, maybe you can help me here:

I've been some time in search of an old and very rare Stratocaster copy, wich probably was made in Japan or Korea. I think this type of Strat' copies were made until 1965 and 1975 (they were very spread for a long time, but disappeared in the 80's :cry:). On EBAY it's very hard to find!

Many japanese/korean guitar companies made these “incorrect“ copies (prototypes). I know these: Kay, Hondo (see catalog of '75), Encore, Zenta, Johnny Guitar. Strinkingly are these 3 slide-switches or the volume knob which was on the wrong place :D.

Who can help? I want to buy a Strat' copy like this. Here you can look for some photos of this guitar: http://s227.photobucket.com/albums/dd80/MRuin-79/
