oops, sorry, wasn't very clear I wanna have a good playing 24" scale Fender guitar; 1) DuoSonic II, 2) MusicMaster II or a 3) Mustang Don't have to be completely stock/original, a '70 one would be nice (year of birth) but the most important thing is vibe and tone for me. I know those parts/neck...

ok, did see that this afternoon (in the Netherlands) regarding the 50 posts, working on that..... I would prefer to have a "< 24 3/4" scale" guitar anyway/anytime. For my work (buidling/modding amps) I do need (and already have) a good Strat, Les Paul and Tele. My 1st electric was a 2...

Hi The neck sucks/is warped so now I do have some nice tuners, a nice Bronco body and a Bronco trem without arm........ I once did have a nice '64 MusicMaster II and I would like to have a DuoSonic (and I do have such vintage bridge). If I can put a Mustang Bridge on the Bronco body I could convert ...

Mustang bridge on (stock) Bronco body?

Would that be possible?

Many tia!

(If so I'm gonna replace the neck on my '71 Bronco and turn the body-routing into a DuoSonic style one).

Aria 1832T parts needed

Hi all I still have my 1st electric guitar ever; a 24 3/4" scale Aria 1832T but (right now) only the neck, body and pickguard. Paul Day (writer from various guitarbooks) is helping me and he does have some parts and the PU's (!) but I'm still looking for the tremolo-bridge. It's also used on th...

I did visit that show too but I was too busy with my amps/customers/etc. to have a look at everything else.......

Angelo (Anouk band) was enjoying a couple of my amps, I'll try to post some pics asap.

Again thanks for your suggestions! (great forum!!!) I'll use a certain Strat-trem-arm (did try a couple) when this axe is finished (nut needs to be replaced and some adjustments are needed). I'm gonna order a BG Strat-P90 PU for this guitar because I think/feel such PU would be a very nice match for...

Excellent, sounds like a beauty. Thanks! It sounds and plays like a magic beauty and, besides some '57 LP Juniors I did play, truly one of my all time favorite LPs ever. Ps: Just did check if the violin bow (don't know the correct name in English) did fit in the case... YEP!!! Not to play Zeppelin ...

looking for Bronco AMP faceplate

Hi all After purchasing a '71 Bronco guitar it would be cool to me to have a "matching amp". Altough I'll build a different circuit inside a VibroChamp/Bronco chassis/cabinet it would be cool to have a Bronco faceplate on it. Anyone knows where/how to get an original or repro Bronco facepl...

Guitar # 8 This is the last of my Competition Mustangs. It's a Warmoth body and neck with vintage parts thrown in. The color is Gold Top Gold and the stripe is vintage white. The most obvious thing is that the stripe is in the wrong spot and follows the forearm contour. I must admit I was a little ...

If the Bassman is specd. for 4 ohms most of the time 8 ohms won't be any problem. Some people even do prefer this kind of "mismatching" on Fender amps.
Compared to mismatching to the other side (ha ha, I mean: 2 ohms) it's better for the tubes also.

You're very kind!!! It's just a small part of my collection, I think I have about 20 guitars/basses/acoustics right now, if it's ok (regarding rules/etc. over here) I can post some more pics from other guitars. Regarding the tremolo: I did try a couple of Strat-arms and one seems to fit decently. Re...
