I didn't find any pics of similar model. Worth of ... how much?

Non-original pickups, non-original toggle-switches (originally 5-way switch). Value? Depends on the pickups. Is it a Strat copy? Yes and no. The Fender two pot + jack input in the pickguard Strats appeared in the beginning of the 80s too, but one year LATER in 1983 (Source: Tony Bacon and Paul Day "The Fender Book" First ed. 1992 page 46). So who copied whom? Ginger   Talajuha Username: Talajuha Registered: 11-2006 Posted on Tuesday, May 01, 2007 - 6:40 pm:    I am not sure if the colour and pickguard are original. Looks like repainted - missing phase switch(?). Well, I'll pass this one though it wuold not cost much (<150€?, auction). The seller is probably celebrating May Day so seriously that he can't answer questions Juha   Talajuha Username: Talajuha Registered: 11-2006 Posted on Friday, May 04, 2007 - 4:23 pm:    Same Blazer with new pickups and polished, price is now 170€. Seller says all except pickups is original. Juha
