Members woolyh Posted March 30, 2011 Members Share Posted March 30, 2011 $799 street, complete with polyester neck Seems a bit heavy for a MIM, I'm judging that on what I imagine the UK street price will be, $799 usually equals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members blueballoon Posted March 30, 2011 Author Members Share Posted March 30, 2011 Yeah I was hoping for something along the lines of Blacktop pricing, especially considering the series is called Pawnshop. I'm interested to see what other Pawnshop guitars are announced though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, ditto. Ibanez kept mentioning pawn shop looks when they brought out the Jet King line. Those {censored}ers were cheap like you'd expect with that kind of marketing.

Members Zappa74 Posted March 30, 2011 Members Share Posted March 30, 2011 {censored}, I wouldnt mind a 51 or the Mustang. A friend had one of the Squier 51s. That was a fun guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members V Posted March 30, 2011 Members Share Posted March 30, 2011 If anyone from Fender is reading this thread, maybe we can talk about a new addition to your Pawn Shop series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Firebrand Posted March 30, 2011 Members Share Posted March 30, 2011 It would be nice if they made a 51 pickup layout with a semi hollow 72 body, but then they would have to call it a 69. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil O'Keefe Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Of all of them, the '51 looks the most appealing. However, the U shaped necks almost never work for me, so that's out. Fender, Fender Fender... I commend you for releasing another 24" scale guitar... but really, what's up with the funky bridges on all the latest offsets? Okay, so it's a "pawn shop special", but really guys... did you have to totally ruin it with the bridge? Really - what's up with the weird bridges lately? If you wanted to save money by not putting a Mustang bridge and vibrato on there, you had other options besides putting a Strat style hardtail bridge behind the pickguard cutout for a Duo Sonic / Mustang bridge. The classic Duo Sonic II bridge is a thing of beauty - stick some compensated saddles on that and go with what you know, not ... this. The rest of it I could deal with - even appreciate. A humbucker equipped Mustang with some "pawn shop approved" switching mods could be a cool thing; but with that bridge on there, all you're doing is forcing all the cool kids to go out and try to find a vintage or Vista series bridge to use as a replacement... that is, if the street price of the guitar isn't $800. For that price, they'll just go get a vintage Mustang or a slightly used but "real" CIJ Mustang... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
