Trying to Find My Old 2001 Fender Stratocaster from San Jose, CA — Hoping to Buy It Back
Hey everyone,
I know this might be a long shot, but I’m on a mission to find my old guitar that means the world to me.
Back in my freshman year of high school (2013), my parents and grandma gifted me a beautiful White 2001 MIM Fender Stratocaster. It was my first real guitar and carried so much sentimental value — countless hours of playing, writing music, and memories.
Unfortunately, in 2019, I made the mistake of trading it away for another guitar (and then another one after that). I’ve regretted that decision ever since. The last I saw of it, someone bought it from Guitar Wars in San Jose, CA.
I’ve missed that guitar for years, and I’ve decided it’s time to try and find it. I don’t know who owns it now, but if by some miracle you’re reading this — or if you happen to know someone who bought a White 2001 MIM Fender Strat from Guitar Wars around that time — please reach out. I’d love the chance to buy it back or at least know where it ended up.
If worse comes to worse and it’s never found, or if the current owner doesn’t want to sell it back, I completely understand. I’m at peace with that — I just wanted to try and see if I could reconnect with something that meant a lot to me.
Any leads or advice on how to track it down would mean the world to me. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
