Geert1976 Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 Post your cheapo Fender like the Bronco, Duo-Sonic, Musicmaster, Mustang and Lead (NO!! Strats, Tele etc.) here are mine: 1963 Duo-Sonic 1979 Lead II (first run!!) 2003 Mustang Re-issue, made in Japan 1966 Duo-Sonic II 1973 Mustang
Dub-T-123 Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 Sweet collection dude. I'd love to have any one of those. This is my drummer's bass but I probably play it more than anyone haha Behind it you can see the lovely amp that we run it through. A solid state Peavy that I found in the parking lot at the Guitar Center in Hollywood. That amp is a real piece of ****, but it pretty much technically works most of the time and it sounds badass with a choice fuzz box.
Dallastx Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Yeah. I'd like to add a Mustang to my collection if I could find one with a maple neck.
MojoRedFoot Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 I guess my either the Highway1 Tele or MIJ Jaguar would be the "cheapos" of my Fenders. Too lazy to post pics right now.
bonzoboy Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 I have a'66 Mustang that I paid $150 for around 1976.A previous owner had stripped it down to the bare wood and very poorly brushed on some clear varnish,I stripped it down again and applied a Candy Apple Blue finish to it.The guitar sounds great and I`ve gigged with it because it`s a joy to play and has such a full sound.I don`t know how to post pix but there are pix of all my guitars in the Epiphone Lounge or Electric Guitar forum under the heading "My Guitar Family".If someone wants to look it up and post it they can go ahead,I don't have the computer savy.
ChanMan Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Yeah, I know what you said... But $75 for this and the hardshell case? Man, that's cheap!
The RandyMan Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 I thought you said CHEAPO!?!? Some of those pics you posted didn't look like they'd be so cheap if you wanted to get your paws on 'em now! You got some sweet Fenders, my friend. I have one cheapo Strat--a '90s MIM Strat. Cost $300 new and is still a keeper and a nice player.
ChanMan Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 Wait a minute, thats a Ultra Strat made in the mid 80's with those Lace Sensors. I had one, does yours have the roller nut? Killer guitar with great tone and no buzz from neon signs which sure is a huge plus when your playing a gig. 1983 Fender Elite with Alnico Active pups. They were supposed to be bleeding edge technology.
Buxom Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 This is the rat Strat I built. It cost me a total of $212.90. Also, I bought the neck as a fixer upper and a de-logo'd thing, stripped of almost all of the finish. I sanded it and added 10 or so coats of heavily buffed bee's wax and got the satin finish I wanted. I also added the pink logo, cause I love pink. I'll post more info on it if you'd like.
Bender 4 Life Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 i'll introduce y'all to the most cheaply MADE Chinese Fender to ever stir a cesspool.......this piece of krap is soooo bad that I kept it strictly as a reminder to "do my due dilligence" before buying. this thing's so bad that I wouldn't even use it as a fly swatter. the "new model" Malibu AE of '09
spike286 Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 had this one for a while file too big to upload? oh well i will post it latter

Buxom Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 What is the second guitar in the last post you made?? I can't read the headstock. It looks like one of those entry level student guitars, is it? Also, I want a vintage Music Master for some reason. They've just always appealed to me for some reason.
