Members kayd_mon Posted April 6, 2011 Members Share Posted April 6, 2011 Yep. Early on, I (and a few others) thought they were an April Fool's joke. I think the Mustang looks cool, I just don't prefer short-scale guitars. http://acapella.harmony-central.com/showthread.php?2764222-Fender-Pawn-Shop-Series-Guitars-that-never-were-but-should-have-been&highlight=fender+pawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kayd_mon Posted April 6, 2011 Members Share Posted April 6, 2011 Ahh, I was on vacation during that time and haven't had time to go back through posts from that period. No prob. Welcome back! And we rehash stuff all the time here, so it's cool. Come to think of it, there hasn't been a tonewood argument in at least a day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members faberbz Posted April 6, 2011 Members Share Posted April 6, 2011 I thought they were an April Fool's joke as well. But they're still on the Fender website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Funkwire Posted April 6, 2011 Members Share Posted April 6, 2011 I like that surf green Squier '51/Tele Deluxe mashup...HATE the name 'Pawn Shop Series'. I love my '51...but I'm not laying out $800 for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nos Posted April 6, 2011 Members Share Posted April 6, 2011 I can't explain why they're still up on Fender's site, but damn. That's not even a decent photoshop job. Look at the knobs. They don't cast a shadow on the control plate but they do on the body right next to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Will Chen Posted April 6, 2011 Members Share Posted April 6, 2011 Apparently the real deal, or one of the more elaborate April 1 hoaxes. Funny that the Squier '51 was so successful that it became a Fender... [video=youtube;vBBUGn3jO4E] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Grantus Posted April 6, 2011 Members Share Posted April 6, 2011 There have only been four or five threads. The mustang will be mine. Musiciansfriend, Music123 and other sites have them for sale. That's one heck of an April Fool's joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Radar-Love Posted April 6, 2011 Members Share Posted April 6, 2011 I've been advocating a Fender "re-birth" of the Squire 51 for the past 4 or 5 years. Glad it finally happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
