that is fucking awsome!
even if it was not played by someone famous i could see this going for at least 750.00
hate me for saying it, but this thing will be a HOT collectors item in 30 years.

I think Robt is right. They are a surf guitar cult fave. They play cuerdas mas macho! I wonder if that means power chords.

saw los straightjackets open for tom petty several years back. they're awesome, and this is a great deal on a guitar with a little bit of history in it, let alone a vista series to boot.

well.. the cool thing to me is the matching headstock which AFAIK weren't available on stock vista models. i guess thats linked to the los straitjackets thing... but i find it more intriguing than it having been owned/played by someone semi-famous...

ps. weren't the vista's orignally equipped with a bottom heel truss rod adjuster (like vintage) and then later a bullet-style at the head? This is neither... looks like the countersunk allen-head at the neck ala MIM and other modern Fenders.
