I'd tend to think that he could make quite a bit more if he would sell them individually, assuming they were the real deal.

I've seen a 59 Stat in good condition (which his seem to be) get $145,000; it's all about supply=demand...
I for one don't think (instrumentally) they're not worth it, but from a collection standpoint, and a ownership of history.. it's nice, if you've got the spare dough.
David Gilmour has serial #0001 Strat.. I wonder what that's worth? |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2004 Location: Melbourne, Australia | | | yeah i think SamJ is on to something. if those are really vintage guitars, and they are in good condition, i don't see why a cashed up collector would scoff at such an auction. its probably a collector's dream if such a thing were true.
Also, the seller invites the potential buyers to visit him/her and to check out the collection. while i wouldn't bid such a large sum on ebay even if i had the money, i would try to track this guy down for more serious talks. |

David Gilmour has serial #0001 Strat.. I wonder what that's worth? | Fender did not number their instrument in consecutive order. Therefore, this isn't the first strat. You might get a premium for having the lowest number, but not for the first guitar. BTW, I believe it is a tele/broadcaster with plate #1.
Also, there are lots of protos that are pre-serial fenders.
