You don’t see these guitars with this finish go up for sale very often so you might want to jump on this one. The pickguard is a replacement, but the original multi-ply mint green pickguard is included. The Capri Orange finish is vibrant and, in my opinion, is among the best finishes that this model was offered in. Both single coil pickups sound great and have a very snappy, articulate tone that sound great with a clean or dirty amplifier. The medium jumbo frets are in excellent condition and show no signs of play wear and this Duo-Sonic plays outstanding up and down the fingerboard with low action and great intonation. This guitar has a great feeling short scale neck with a moderately slim, modern C shaped profile and a 9.5 radius fingerboard. Otherwise, this guitar is in exceptionally fine, very clean cosmetic condition. This 2016 Fender Duo-Sonic is in very good cosmetic condition and would be listed as in excellent condition but there is one dime sized ding on the top of the guitar and the plastic switch tip is missing (see photos). The unsung hero of the alternative underground, the Duo-Sonic is perfect for players who desire a unique sound and visual style.Very good condition featuring double cutaway offset alder body with Capri Orange finish, multi-ply red moto pearloid plastic pickguard, two Duo-Sonic single coil pickups with plastic pickup covers with no visible pole pieces, one volume control and one tone control with flat topped knurled metal barrel knobs, three way pickup selector switch, Duo-Sonic bridge with six individual adjustable steel saddles, bolt on maple neck with walnut skunk stripe, maple fingerboard with black dot inlays starting at the third fret, small Fender Duo-Sonic peghead shape with Fender spaghetti logo and Duo-Sonic logo, single butterfly string tree, six in a line Fender sealed tuning machines, serial number and Made In Mexico printed on the back of the peghead, four bolt neck fastening plate with F engraving, string through body construction with six individual metal string ferrules, two metal strap buttons, chrome plated metal hardware and black Tolex covered rectangular Fender hard shell case. Aesthetic appointments, including the knurled flat-top control knobs, cast/sealed tuning machines and a three-ply Mint Green pickguard, add a touch of classic Fender style to this updated design. A gloss polyester finish protects the body while the neck bears a satin polyurethane finish for fast, easy playability. The downsized body is comfortable for smaller players or those who enjoy energetic stage performances. The six-saddle string-through-body hardtail Strat® bridge increases sustain while the bent steel saddles add some zing to your tone, enhancing the upper harmonics to cut through a dense mix. Topped by a 9.5”-radius maple fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets, the “C”-shaped maple neck is comfortable for all playing styles and ideal for players with smaller hands, or those who use extended chord forms. The 24” scale adds a bit of warmth and thickness to the guitar’s inherent tone, while granting a slinkier playing feel, making it easier to perform multi-step bends. Master volume and tone controls, along with a three-way pickup switch, shape the pickups’ voice to match the music. A surprisingly hip guitar with upgraded contemporary features, this instrument features slick style and a unique sound that’s perfectly at home in modern music.Īlmost infinitely flexible, the pair of Duo-Sonic single-coil pickups in the bridge and neck positions lends a unique character to for everything from bright, jangly arpeggios to heavy chords. Since its debut in 1956, the Duo-Sonic has found its way into the hands of genre-defining artists, becoming an underground sensation that helped create alternative music in the dingy clubs of New York City.
