This is a long shot, but I'm looking for a Fender Stratocaster 1969 with a maple neck.

Bring your big boy checkbook if you do find one. Saw a Fender Stratocaster go for over $2000 at an auction a year or so ago.
I watched a live auction back in 2019 where David Gilmour's black strat brought $3,995,000 which was a record at the time. Later Kurt Cobain's guitar went for around $8,000,000. At Gilmour's auction the empty case that the black strat traveled in brought $200,000. The cheapest guitar was thought to bring maybe $400. The lowest amount paid for any of the 146 guitars was $32,000.

Odd, Isn't it. That black strat was actually a starburst that was painted black and the neck was changed from a rosewood to a maple neck.
