i just got done emailing fender sales support to see what the deal is.

I also left a message with musicians friend to call me back about my order. maybe the people there have access to the ship dates.

I actually quite like the Mustang pickguard with the Strat bridge though, like that Offset Series one. S'clean.
:shock: Pank beauty


Yeah, I like a strat trem on that one either, at the same time Cyclone I never looked half as good with it. So it's the mustang pickguard then that makes it?

It's part of the image, that's not Shortscale's fault, ROB

I think so! It's just that simple curve that mirrors the body vs. all the rollercoaster bullshit that started on the Stratomocaster

The blue Super-Sonic looks gorgeous! Looks kind of small in that 60cycle guys video though, for some reason I thought Super-Sonics were flipped Jaguar bodies?
I don't own any humbucker guitars anymore, I'm not sure how that happened, but I'm really tempted to pick one of these up and put in some crazy high-output humbuckers. What mods can you do to strat trems that mean they aren't crappy? Never been able to get on with them

Good to know, nice one. Are these true 24" and not conversion? I've got a 65 Musicmaster B width neck I need to find a use for, seems a shame for it to be doing nothing

its 24" scale but the neck heel is one of a kind. you cant swap necks on it for other stuff.

i mean anything is possible, but it seems like a bitch to put something on there with a regular neck heel and get it to work without you yelling FUCK THIS at it a lot while trying

Yeah, I'll scrap that idea then, cba making work for myself. I'll have to try one rather than preorder then, 50mm width sounds pretty smoll for my fangers

40mm?

Also I was a bit unfair to the Supersonic, I watched the second half of the video later on and now I want one again. The color also looks much more teal on my TV, my phone looks more like how I imagine Ice Blue Metallic to look.

Also damn that Toronado. I’d want that so bad if I didn’t know the pick guard would be pixeltort.

DOH! Anyway I'll try one as soon as they're in shops, hopefully I'll not even notice the thin width and then I can make myself a shortscale offset metal machine
