![]() Acoustic-electric nylon string guitars certainly do exist, such as the Cordoba GK Studio or the highfalutin Takamine TH90 (which is gorgeous by the way), but that's still altogether different from an all-electric guitar using steel strings.Ĭoncerning price of a pre-CBS Musicmaster, this is what I have to say about that: I think the only kind of guitar that's even easier to play than the Musicmaster is a classical guitar, meaning a nylon string acoustic. ![]() It's just a small, light and simple little thing, which is something older gents appreciate a lot because they don't like complicated stuff. I have to admit the Musicmaster is an endearing and even lovable guitar. One volume control, one tone control, one pickup. The Musicmaster is the very definition of a no-fuss guitar. This guitar is obviously meant for cowboy chord playing and not soloing, especially considering it has a 7.25" fingerboard radius. You could load heavier gauge strings on a Musicmaster and still have a very easy-playing guitar. What that means is you get real Fender, real vintage, and something that's easier to play than a Stratocaster or Telecaster.Īs far as I'm aware, all the vintage Musicmasters are top-loaders, meaning that in addition to the super short scale making it ridiculously easy to play, the top-loaded strings lessens the tension for even easier play. This guitar was designed from the start to be a very easy player. What makes the pre-CBS Musicmaster possibly the ultimate retirement guitar is that it has a super short 22.5" scale. While true the guitar was made all the way up until 1982, of course the best ones are the pre-CBS era '59 to '64 models. This one in particular is for the older gents with hands that don't work as well as they used to.įirstly, the Musicmaster shown above is from a Reverb shop called A Flash Flood of Gear out of Meritt Island FL, and you can see a bunch of other ones on Reverb, so if you want to know where to find these things, there you go.įender Musicmaster was Fender's student guitar. My reading audience goes all over the place as far as age is concerned. It's real-deal Fender vintage, it's available, and there's one other rather nice advantage to owning one of these. ![]() ![]() Rolling Stones, ZZ Top, Cozy Powell, The Killers, Suzi Quatro, Coldplay, Gary Moore, Franz Ferdinand, Jimmy Page, Buddy Miller, Brian Setzer, Eric Johnson, Texas, Big Country, Bill Nelson, The Cardigans, The Hellecasters, Travis, Albert Lee, The Wedding Present, Chumbawamba, Albert King, Primal Scream, Living Colour, The Hamsters, Canned Heat, Cast, Oasis, The Beatles, Charlatans, U2, Van Halen, Guns 'n' Roses, Bon Jovi, Stone Roses, Eric Clapton, The Seahorses, Emmylou Harris, World Party, Manic Street Preachers,, Supergrass, Blur, The Cure, Inspiral Carpets, The Bluetones, Johnny Marr, The Hollies, Chuck Berry, The La's, Mansun, Johnny Lee Hooker, Chris Rea, The Smiths, The Stranglers, The Shadows, The Amazing Blondell, John Parr, The Soup Dragons, Terrorvision, The Verve, Speedy, Edwin Collins, Ace of Bass, Steeleye Span, Bryan Adams, EMF, Suzanne Vega, The Cranberries, Embrace, Dave Gilmour, The Boomtown Rats, Saxon, Henry Rollins Band, Mike Harding, Hurricane #1, Stiff Little Fingers, The Long Pigs, The The, Gordon Giltrap, The Supernaturals.Fender Musicmaster might be the ultimate retirement guitar Our previous and regular clients include: With over 40 years of experience we have bought, sold and traded some of the worlds rarest instruments.ĪLWAYS LOOKING TO PURCHASE: MARSHALL 64-68 AMPLIFIERS | 1952-68 FENDER & GIBSON GUITARS | GIRL BRAND GUITARS | DUMBLE AMPLIFIERS | TRAINWRECK AMPLIFIERS | VINTAGE BRITISH FUZZ PEDALS | ARTIST OWNED ITEMS Based on the world famous TIN PAN ALLEY, Denmark Street, London we have the largest selection of new, used and vintage guitars, amplifiers and effect.
