well, i didn't know anything about a squire duo sonic, which isn't a surprise because i am new to these guitars. i just won one on ebay, anyone care to educate me on my purchase?

this isn't the exact one but color is the same.




i guess my addiction is out of control now, damn, what the hell am i going to do about x-mas?

they ebay purchase woulndn't have been so bad by itself but i purshcased this perfect 65 RI mustang two days ago.



so now i have a blue on and a red one and i am uninstalling internet explorer from my damn computer

How much did you give for it and what year is it? (the duo)

probably too much, 180, but i wanted a 22 inch scale so i am happy overall.

honestly i missed the fact that it was a squier until after i had already won the auction.

If it has CXS or X in the serial number it's a Squier Affinity made in China in 1998 or 1999. They aren't bad for the price, cost about $250 new. I think they are a 22.7" scale likr the Mexican reissues of the 1993 to 1997 years $180 and that's not a bad price, just no bargan. It's hard to find them for much less. Just can't remember anyone saying how they sound, just that they play OK. They probably vary a bit in quality though.

i payed 150 for mine and that was like 8 years ago.

ArgyleLouis bought mine for 150 after i installed jagstang tuners, new pickups, covers, knobs and a switch



awesome little guitar
with .13 strings on it, it only would stay in tune if i tuned it up to F. when left in E, the strings were too slack and didn't work out that well. after a month of playing in F you start to get used to it and I actually wrote quite a few songs in F with this guitar.

And I bloody well love it too. Great little guitar

Yea, the Mexi Duo is quite a nice guitar. I actually like it better than the CV Duo but enjoy the CV scale a little better for noodlin past the 12th fret. Either way, my buddy has been playing for 16 years now, probably the best player I actually know, and he won't part with that little guitar. I used to have one but foolishly gave it up when I was a young'n, basically looked the same as the red one above.

every time i see this thread title L@@K pops into my head.

what was strange is the linking worked when i previewed it, which is why i posted again.

i am excited about the red one, it will be here next week and i'll post up


have been playing the strings off the mustang and lovin every minute of it.

that's because it's in your browser's cache. =]

How much are these worth?

There is one on my local craigslist for 350 Canadian...

200 - 300 or so, as you can get the fender ones from teh early 90's for around that mark usually.

the squier came in the mail today. i am pleasantly surprised, nice little guitar, looks good, sounds fine.

needs thicker strings and some fret dressing that i'll get around to at some point.


overall, i dig it.

Was there ever a Squier Mustang?

Nope, unfortunately not.

There is a Fender Duo-sonic from 93 on my local Craigslist for 325... worth getting?

were the 90s Duos 24 or 22 inches?

I'd say its overpriced. I'd pay 200 at MOST for one with nice pups, that I could play first.

22.something inches.

22.7"
