Fender Mandocaster Sunburst 1962
Rare 1962 Fender Mandocaster, 100% original and in excellent condition.
Introduced in the mid-1950s, the Mandocaster reflects Leo Fender’s approach to bringing solid-body electric design to less conventional stringed instruments. Produced in limited numbers, surviving examples are increasingly difficult to find, particularly in completely original condition.
