He loves me... he loves me not...

Yes, he loves me, and I got the mustang to prove it!!

This was one of Fredo's projects he's been working on (so it doesn't count as a new item on the inventory) and painted a while ago, but scratched the finish with the buffer so he put it off for a while. Then he picked it up again, and put it all together, installing a bigsby and... it was all a present for me!! He's so sweet! I remember he took me to the paint store and let me choose a color- and we both agreed on the seafoam mist metallic. I was ranting on how I loved the color so much (I used the leftovers on my razor project) and now I have an awesome new mustang!! Vintage neck btw with Brazillian rosewood and white klusons.

Note to self: Change the speed knobs Eh, I was gonna change the knobs, but I wanna keep it the way Fredo made it for me <3 It's his mojo

that neck used to be on the duo-sonic you just bought. god knows where it originally came from.

wait, is it a 24 scale neck, or a 22.5 scale?

Posted: **Wed Oct 08, 2008 1:26 am**

24" scale. it presumably came from an old musicmaster or duo-sonic II. it's one of the mid-sixties slab boards.

i was under the impressed that by 65 everything was veneer style.
shows how much i know.

it seems that on student models from late '65 to early '66 they switched back to slab boards for some reason.

Looks Great!

Posted: **Wed Oct 08, 2008 2:16 am**

wow, that's a pretty unique looking creation! should one call it a mustang or a duo w/ bigsby?? the upper horn doesn't look quite as stumpy as usual.

Posted: **Wed Oct 08, 2008 3:04 am**

i'm kinda over rob roe covers on EVERY GODDAMNED GUITAR. so leave 'em off.
