Kind of cool, but the price is wack.

Someone needs to buy that Musicmaster and save it. That's a fantastic price.
The last one there is a decent price, but I'd want some better "up close" pics than what he provided.

+1. That MM really makes me want to start my Pawnshop Jag-stang. Like the color.
That Mustangish neck almost looks like a Jagmaster neck from the back. I am curious why there is no pic of the front of the headstock. The tuners are different than what you see on a Mustang style guitar.

nice. i definitely don't need it, but ever since i put a p90 in my cv duo, i'd been interested in slightly higher output pickups in shortscales. this way i won't have to change anything to try it out. and there is tons of wiggle/mod/part-out room if i don't love the guitar as is... and as shitty as that refin looks, it also looks really cool. love me some surf green! and i think the price was right.

it certainly was
i'm just GASing for a 65 mustang again...
what i really dig out that guitar is the lack of cut away
should you ever opt to sell it hit me with a pm

also, is there a quick answer as to the difference between the "music master" and "musicmaster" decals?
