Sunn Mustang Electric Guitar 1983 Vintage Strat Copy

Sheffield, S5***, UNITED KINGDOM

£110

Before Fender Squier, there was Sunn Mustang. The best examples were the earlier Indian made models, which were hailed for their superior build quality. This is one of them, dated 1983. I??ve replaced the stock humbucker with an old Ibanez one, which sounds much warmer. The neck and bridge pickups are stock single coil, but have that classic Strat sound (think Hendrix). Great condition overall, but there??s a small ding on the bottom edge (visible on pic). Comes with a guitar bag.

Vintage Westone Thunder 2 Jazz Through Neck Bass Guitar 1983. MIJ Japan +Case RARE
This is a fantastic bass. It has an unusual 32 25" scale so it is slightly shorter than normal (but longer than a normal short scale). As a result it feels great and sounds fantastic. The pickups sound great and the electronics really complement them. You can dial in loads of useful tones and the 3 way switch and separate volume pots allow you to dial in 3 tones at the flick of a switch (great for bass solos). ... more

Yamaha SG-1000N, in a rare Indigo Blue (almost looking black??!) issue from 1983 / 4. The SG-1000 and 2000 models became popular in the 1970s and 1980s and need little introduction.

Smooth ebony finger board with mother of pearl split wing markers and the gold coloured hardware make this an ... more

Yamaha SG-1000N, in a rare Indigo Blue (almost looking black??!) issue from 1983 / 4. The SG-1000 and 2000 models became popular in the 1970s and 1980s and need little introduction. Weighing in at about 4 kgs, it??s weighty and oozes mojo and quality. The instrument sustains well even with a set neck, but aided by the weight. The Alnico 5 pickups give the sound a major oomph. Smooth ebony finger board with mother of pearl split wing markers and the gold coloured hardware make this an ... more
