KiOgon Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I've been catching this tune on the radio for weeks now & thinking it was Fleetwood Mac then I found this rooftop version - OK what's the bass? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_Kw3_CEGSs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhysP Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Looks like a stripped Fender Mustang to me, difficult to tell though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkyard Rocket Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Looks like an early 70s one like mine with 'tulip' shaped tuners. The original weedy 6-pole pickup was the same as originally fitted to mustang guitars - like a strat pickup but only half as tall. The tone can be much improved by replacing with a Kent Armstrong (or similar) strat-sized enclosed cool rails humbucker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
