If you can find a musicmaster, it might be routed like a duo sonic...a vintage or aftermarket pickguard should be an easy score.(honeyiscool's musicmaster is, but IIRC they didn't come out of the factory like that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members harold heckuba Posted December 11, 2012 Members Share Posted December 11, 2012 Tony Maiden of Rufus used a Musicmaster a lot in the 70's. He got a great sound out of his, groundbreaking playing. And, to Roy Brooks, awesome Bronco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the easiest way is to do as you say, find a Musicmaster or Duo Sonic and get another pickguard made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members skipstar59 Posted December 11, 2012 Members Share Posted December 11, 2012 VERY sweet guitar. I'm patiently waiting for one to turn up in a pawnshop. If one does, It'll be mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members honeyiscool Posted December 12, 2012 Author Members Share Posted December 12, 2012 I've been waiting for the right one for a long time myself. I wanted one that felt and looked just right, and this one did it for me. The frets are pretty worn and might have to be replaced one day, but the guitar is just solid through and through. The neck is the kind of neck where you can't really feel the thickness but it's definitely thicker than the average 60s shortscale neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
