Description
Step into a piece of history with the Fender Duo-Sonic 1960, a pre-CBS era masterpiece that combines vintage charm with modern playability. Originally crafted for the burgeoning student market of the late 1950s, this Duo-Sonic features a comfortably short 22.5" scale length, making it an ideal choice for players with smaller hands or those seeking a nimble, responsive instrument. This particular model has journeyed through time with a natural refinish, adding a unique character to its already rich legacy.
Despite its age, this guitar remains a versatile performer, thanks to its original, yet rewound, pickups by Sliders Pickups. The internal electronics retain their vintage essence, aside from a single replaced capacitor, ensuring that the Duo-Sonic's signature tone resonates as beautifully as ever. While the headstock sports a modern look, the neck retains its slab rosewood board with classic clay dots, making it a joy to navigate.
The cosmetic modifications, including a tastefully painted black pickguard and replacement hardware, add a dash of individuality without compromising functionality. With a smooth, low action courtesy of a recent refret, it’s a delight to play. This Duo-Sonic comes housed in a late '60s Mustang/Bronco case, offering the perfect blend of protection and style.
