1957 Fender Musicmaster w/ added bridge pickup. Pretty much a Duo Sonic.
It was 1990 and the decades of playing this guitar finally showed. Worn out wires, and the original pickup finally "lost the ghost", and the tuners, bridge, and knobs which performed so patiently with me deserved a retirement. The sonic sound of the body and the fast neck were ready for more.
I replaced the tuners, bridge, pickguard, knobs, wiring, jack, and added a second pickup (Musicmasters and Duo Sonics were routed the same from the factory). The neck and body came alive with the new additions.
The fast neck and shorter scale makes this guitar a rarity. You can reach chords with ease and dampens hand fatigue. I would spend more time during the breaks with my band showing this guitar than any other.
Please contact me with any questions or requests. This guitar is from the 50's, and surprise has the markings of 60 years of playing. It was intentionally left this way and has earned this character throughout the years.
