"I want a 1950s or 60s Strat, because that's what my idols played."
No, they did not. They played new(ish) instruments. They did not play 60 or 70 year old Strats. The oldest Strats available in 1969 was 15 years old.
Electronics do age, you know. If you want similar equipment as your 1960s idols, buy a new guitar or a used one from the last 10 years.
You're welcome.
