1960 Fender Musicmaster Desert Sand (3/4)
Couldn't load pickup availability
This short scale length 1960 Fender Musicmaster in Desert Sand comes to us all the way from Minnesota. The Musicmaster was the Duo-Sonics single pickup counterpart and features a short 22.5", 3/4 scale length.
Measurements: 5.6 lbs (2.55 kg) total weight. The neck measures 1.56" wide at the nut, 0.80" deep at the first fret, and 0.98" deep at the 12th fret. The pickup reads 5.71k ohms.
Originality: The pickup was repaired to original without rewinding, we added an era correct volume knob, and one piece of original pickup wire tape had to be replaced. Otherwise this Musicmaster is all original.
Playability: Excellent. The neck is dead straight, truss rod functions as intended, frets have very little wear, and the electronics are clean and operate as intended.
Condition: Very good with typical nicks, dings, and scratches.
Included: This guitar includes a hardshell case.
Fine Print: All guitars ship via FedEx Priority Overnight for domestic sales or FedEx Priority International. I offer a 48 hour approval period beginning on delivery for all sales during which you are welcome to opt for a return as long as the guitar is still in as-sent condition. I do not charge a restocking fee, but any non-refunded payment processing fees, outbound shipping, and return shipping costs are subtracted from the refund in the case of a return.

Fender Stratocasters: Better with a Hardtail?
There is something different about a Fender Stratocaster that's been lovingly played and cherished for half a century. My favorite Stratocaster we've been fortunate enough to have in the shop this year, and frankly one of my favorite guitars of all time was a 1960 Fender Stratocaster in sunburst. Sounds boring right? Well, this Strat has a trick up its sleeve. It left the factory with a "Hardtail" configuration.
