Members mschafft Posted August 20, 2013 Members Share Posted August 20, 2013 This minty one was below the average price new ones go for on the bay. Couldn't let it pass me. The neck feels really good and the construction is top notch. Another keeper ! Thanks for reading, more pics to come... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr. Scottie C Posted August 20, 2013 Members Share Posted August 20, 2013 Looks sweet....Honestly, Japan made Fender is almost getting to be a old folk lore as Squier Classic Vibes and MIM Fender seem to be on role right now, I am seeing less and less of MIJ Fender these days.

Members mschafft Posted August 20, 2013 Author Members Share Posted August 20, 2013 I'll open this beauty's belly tonight wishing to find a massive tremolo block, US vintage pickups with cloth wiring. I happen to own a similar guitar in sunburst. The black one is a tad heavier. The neck on the black one is a tad rounder. Feels perfect in my hands. The sunburst is just stellar. I can't wait to hear some tone pouring down from the blackie tonight after set up and restring. Cheerio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DaleH Posted August 20, 2013 Members Share Posted August 20, 2013 HNGD that's pretty much what I'm looking for. I see many of the older ones have 54 in the neck pocket. Been looking at this 1990 K series on my loacal CL.http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/bnc/msg/3992067543.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wankdeplank Posted August 20, 2013 Members Share Posted August 20, 2013 Sounds like a fantastic deal on a newer one like that. So I'm assuming some nice alnicos that need no replacing as well. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mschafft Posted August 20, 2013 Author Members Share Posted August 20, 2013 Cloth wiring = vintage US pickups confirmed as well as high mass block. New strings and test ride tomorrow. Thanks for your input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
