MUSTANG KNOCKOFFS?

Cymastar

Is that the nineties Duo, or the Classic Vibe? Because the Classic Vibe is tight. Just replaced the toggle today with a full size (as opposed to mini) from an Ibanez, and the toss is so smooth. Plus, with the pickup positions, flicking it back and forth makes a wah-wah effect.

I watched the uber-mod progress, and am throughly impressified.

I don't quite get that... He said he was gonna mod a Squier Duo to become a Mustang, but he built the body himself and bought the neck and all the parts...

So he built a Mustang. No conversion there... 😕

Cymastar

Yeah.

Seems pretty lame to me...

Actually I think I've seen that things before, in a guitar shop south. Didn't try it though... I was slightly scared by it 😆

This I REALLY like. Would love to see that body shape used on a guitar 😀

agreed - with some overwound jazzmaster pup, wraparound tailpiece, and explosives in the bridge.

Cymastar

I know this has been asked over and over, but would Jazzmaster pickups fit in a humbucker route?

no, the jazz pups are bigger

Cymastar

Damn.. No biggie.

A black Jagmaster-to-Jazzmaster conversion is available in my area for something like 350. I don't have the money. Especially not for something that uses electrical tape to cover the holes left by the new pickguard. Get that bitch something custom!

whoa, i've never seen one of these (whereas cy will without a shadow of a doubt tell you in a minute, that he played one the other day and actually owned five of these KSINMIs in the early 80s):

that headstock is absolutely beautiful!!! so much better than any fender or gibson headstock.

endsjustifymeans

looks like a can opener to me. I'll take a pre-cbs headstock over that any day.

funtoosh

... and the fourth wrong-sided tuner doesn't do much to improve it ...
