But presumably a Squier Supersonic neck would be compatible with a Fender Supersonic?

Oof. I was stoked for the Supersonic. And then I saw the neck width :? That's always been the neck width of the Squier Supersonic. The Fender Pawn Shop version had a 42mm nut width. Also the reason why it's the one I want the most. Does the Squier have a narrower neck? I might be interested in gett...

Do you think this would fit in a Pawn Shop Mustang? The switch has always been shitty in it. I bought a couple of replacements but they never fit the body cavity. I eventually gave up and bent the connections so it favored the neck position which is what i use for the most part. I've read elsewhere...

I would buy a new switch. They are only around $14. :) http://www.guitarcenter.com/DiMarzio-Switchcraft-Toggle-Switch-for-Gibson-100006023-i1130471.gc?country=us&currency=usd&isfullsite=1&source=4WWRWXGP&gclid=CMHP0ebyuMUCFU6VfgodXI4AlQ&kwid=productads-plaid%5E85457282922-sku%5E...

Pawn Shop Super-Sonic Switch/Electronics

Hello everyone, I obtained a Fender Super-Sonic some time ago. It was in pristine cosmetic condition but required some work on the frets, electronics, etc. The pickup selection switch appeared to be faulty and introduced crackling in two positions. I took the guitar to a tech and they improved the a...

Okay, seems as if I need to get hold of my soldering iron as soon as possible!

Thanks for the advice, I'll try that method.

If I do need to buy a replacement which is the best site to use? I didn't notice any on Angela or Guitar Parts Resource.

Thanks for all your replies and yeah, it's definitely possible that there's just a problem with the soldering. I don't have access to my soldering iron at the moment (it's in another country!) so I may need to take my guitar to a tech. Is it likely that they would have replacement switches that woul...

CIJ Pickup Selector Woes

Hello everyone, I've had a good trawl through the forums but thought it would be advantageous to make a dedicated post as I'm not very knowledgeable about electronics. The pickup selector of the lead circuit on my CIJ (circa 2000) Jaguar has started to become temperamental. The switch for the bridge...

Is the entire Pawn Shop line going to be discontinued? Or will there be further additions to the range?

Are the necks on each of those guitars similar? I would like a modern short scale and I'm inclined to go for the Fender Super Sonic but I'd consider the various Mustangs that are currently available too.
