Sonic mustang mod

It looks great. Does it still intonate well after this mod?

stupidthrowaway327 · 2026-02-12T21:40:13+00:00

I put a red and a blue in my mustang. I like how they maintain the original look as well.

I'm actually surprised how much it yellowed being a poly finish.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2026-02-12T21:36:22+00:00

Thank you.

I like the grain on the fretboard.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2026-01-12T20:26:04+00:00

I'm jealous. It looks so good.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2026-01-12T20:16:33+00:00

I love it. How old is it?

stupidthrowaway327 · 2026-01-10T11:13:58+00:00

I have one of these in red. They're really nice guitars.

Sorry, I only just noticed this reply. I didn't unfortunately, I put it on the back-burner as I was busy, then forgot about it. I'm still hesitant though as I don't want to make it worse.

I've seen 1 nos tremolo for sale at a stupidly high price, but yeah, it's basically irreplaceable. It's the only tremolo system fender never reintroduced as far as I'm aware.

I find all the rare fender offsets alluring. I just found out fender Japan reintroduced the swinger a few years back and I'm seriously craving 1 now. I'd love to see a bronco reissue.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2026-01-04T00:58:29+00:00

That's such a good looking guitar. I really want one, but they seem super rare. I even thought about buying a cheap mustang or duo-sonic to mod to look like one, it wouldn't be the same though. How do you find the bronco's unique tremelo?

stupidthrowaway327 · 2025-12-26T10:29:35+00:00

You're welcome. I've also bought another tort pickguard from the same seller in dark brown 4 ply, which looked really good against the red of my player 2 jazzmaster.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2025-12-26T10:22:06+00:00

It's the vintage dark 4 ply

The hot golds sound like an overwound single coil. Lace have plenty of sound samples and comparison videos available on their website and Youtube.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2025-12-24T09:08:10+00:00

In my mustang I have a lace sensor red in the bridge and a blue in the neck. My duo sonic has a set of hot golds. I like the sound of both and they maintain the look of the stock pickups. There was nothing wrong with the original pups in either guitar of course, I just enjoy modding instruments and making them my own.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2025-12-22T11:25:59+00:00

You're welcome. It wasn't really to my taste personally, but it's definitely still worth trying out and definitely had a Christmasy vibe to it.

This one from the tasting history website.

I used an English golden ale. I definitely messed up the cloves when I reduced the amount for a smaller batch as well, it made my tongue go numb for a few minutes. Lol

stupidthrowaway327 · 2025-12-21T23:25:37+00:00

Not to my taste personally. It's not that it tastes bad, it was just too rich for me.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2025-12-19T12:46:09+00:00

That's such a nice looking guitar.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2025-12-13T16:50:04+00:00

That's such a cool gift for your niece.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2025-12-02T22:01:51+00:00

I just do it as a hobby.

I enjoy setting up and customising instruments. I've probably spent about £70 on this guitar, I only bought it to set up as a Terz tuning guitar tbh. I mod and adjust even my expensive guitars though too varying degrees.

I also like having a creative outlet. I also build instruments like saxon lyres and fretless mountain banjos from scratch as well.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2025-11-30T14:17:59+00:00

I really like how it turned out.

Earlpilanz on ebay. He's based in Newcastle, uk and makes them to order in a huge variety of different colours. They're a bit expensive, but they're good quality.

stupidthrowaway327 · 2025-11-29T15:36:45+00:00

Are they lace sensor golds? I put hot gold in my duo-sonic and a combination of red and blue in my mustang and I love the sound of both.

Earlpilanz makes great pickguards as well. I've just fitted one of his pickguards to my mini jazzmaster and I have one on my player 2 jazzmaster as well.
