Hi everybody!
Greetings from France! I'm not strictly surf expert but I discovered surf stuff
with Brian's page about Man or Astroman?, since I try to reproduce surf sound
with my group. I recently bought a vintage Fender Mustang on Ebay (Dakota Red
number L55119 from late 1964)absolutely perfect and (above all) still affordable
for my wallet....Is there a book about these Mustang? I've seen on a Vintage
Guitar site that the guitar was a "student guitar" with short scale. Does that
mean it's not as valuable as a Jaguar or a Jazzmaster? These guitars are
impossible to find here in France at a reasonnable price.... Is there a main
difference with a Mustang? I'm playing on a silverface Twin Reverb: is it better
to find a vintage blackface amp than to change my guitar? Thanks for your
answer and forgive my american which is not perfect!
Thanks everybody!
Vincent

Hello Vincent. I've never played a Mustang so I cannot comment about
them begin surf guitars. They are less valuable than the Jaguar and
Jazzmaster. The Dakota Red Mustangs look really nice. The Jaguar has a
short scale like the Mustang.The pickups are different in the Mustang.
Also I wouldn't consider your getting a Blackface amp very important
to your sound. I am sure the Silverface sound good enough. If you have
the money why not get a blackface. They do sound better. And more
importantly they look cooler.
You English is pretty good.

Hello Jacob!
Thanks for your answer! Considering the amp: I just have a look at Ebay: seems
possible to buy a vintage blackface twin reverb but only in the USA: way too far
(and too expensive) to ship! And the shipping and handling will be much too
expensive! Considering the Mustang: thanks to all other members for telling me
what they know and think about this guitar!
See ya!
Vincent
PS thanks also to Brian for helping me to change my email in this group: Brian
you're cool! And your Moan? tablature site still rules!
