Hi All,

I have a MIM Fender Duo Sonic and was wondering if a Mustang control plate would fit without drilling any new holes. If it doesn't fit, anybody got a good resource on how I can get a MIM Duo Sonic looking like the Duo Sonic II?

I was thinking, since my pickguard is cracked around the control knob area, I could replace it with a Mustang control plate and reshape the existing pickguard so it'll fit.

Cheers!

I know it won't fit a CV Duo. The control cavity is too wide; the Mustang plate's screws are over space, not wood.

they're totally different body shapes, so i think you might struggle somewhat unless you're willing to have a completely custom guard and control plate made up.

Anybody know where I can get a metal control plate custom done?

your local blacksmith followed by an electroplater, i'd say.

You could make your own out of stainless (or maybe aluminium), then polish it to a chome-like shine.
