In other words, I've only seen CAR without the matching headstock on truly vintage Jags from the 60's/70's and very recent AVRI models. Did this particular color combination exist at all between then and now, preferably in the late 90's/early 2000's? Vintage 60's CAR Jags had matching headstocks. I...

I think this is my dream shortscale. Perfect color, perfect aging, perfect pickup arrangement. Congrats on the find! Thanks... I love when the color ages like this too... I have a nearly NOS/mint '66 Duo-Sonic (The one in my avatar) and it's an awesome guitar, but I like these 2 Musicmasters better!

Thanks fellas. It's a lovely match to this '65 I already have... one of my favorite guitars ever. http://vintagefenders.weebly.com/uploads/4/4/2/5/4425828/3513533_orig.jpg http://vintagefenders.weebly.com/uploads/4/4/2/5/4425828/6753491_orig.jpg http://vintagefenders.weebly.com/uploads/4/4/2/5/44258...

My new early 70's "well worn" Music Master
I don't post here very often, but thought some of ya'll might dig my latest vintage gear purchase. Let me start off by saying I LOVE this little guitar! I originally saw it posted for sale on another site in early November and before I could get the scratch together to make a deal on it the seller c...

NGD- 100% original untouched '66 Musicmaster II
I really wasn't looking to buy another Musicmaster, although they ARE my favorite student model.. but this one was just too neat to pass up. It's a 100% untouched 1966 Musicmaster II that was purchased new in '67 for a 10 year old girl who rarely played it. The story was that she already had an acou...

Pots dated 66 on later guitars is not uncommon, I've read that Fender made a TON of pots in 66 and used them for several years, way up into the early 70s in some cases. I know I have a 69 Musicmaster thats 100% original with 66 dated pots. What is the heel date on the neck? I find it very odd that t...

Bought myself a late birthday gift... 70 Competition Mustang
My birthday was a month ago on Thursday... I wanted to buy myself something cool, and what else is cooler than a vintage Comp Stang? That's what I've been tellin' myself anyhow! I thought finding a good one would be easy, but It's been essentially a non-stop search for the past month, as I wanted an...

Thanks fellas... I actually never really realized how many guitars I have around here until I started putting together the website. I'm not really sure what one is my favorite, I have some that are favorites for sentimental reasons, and others that are favorites for playibility/tone reasons, and the...

I'm slightly wary of minty vintage guitars. a guitar worn to hell from someone playing it is direct evidence that it's a good guitar. it never would have been played so much if it was a dud! I don't buy into this theory... While I agree a well worn guitar may indeed be a good indicator it was/is a ...

ah.. i seem to remember the thread on offset about that coral jag... you've not been shy about buying more of them i see! very nice collection, that foam green jag is supremely sexual. Yep, that was me... and that was indeed my very first offset. As you can tell I've become somewhat addicted to the...

Exactly. I like guitars that have lots of age and wear too, but the fact remains that a mint one would be worth more money, and a much rarer find. I have both types in my collection, and to be honest the worn ones are the best players... and as mentioned, more fun to play without worry of harming th...
