    I remember trying out the Duo Sonic at a guitar shop close to my apt before COVID 19 happened and it was great! At the time, I was looking for a guitar that had a coil splitter. I couldn't decide between the Duo Sonic or the Yamaha Revstar. I was also looking for a Mustang but one with a Humbucker in the bridge. I remember I looked up a Jazzmaster on the Facebook Marketplace but then I came across a Squier Vintage Modified Mustang in Candy Red. It was made to look and play like a Kurt Cobain Mustang. I had to sell a few of my guitars and some of my pedals to get it but I have no regrets.

    I’m a huge KC fan. I have a Jagstang, Jaguar NOS, custom Vandalism strat and a 73 reissue OTM Competition Mustang that I consider my “Smells like teen spirit” guitar because its close to what Kurt used as well although his was an original 69 LPB one. I might get a KC Mustang but I’m pretty content with what I have. Now, I really like a lot of offset guitars and might get a sonic duo or maybe a Jazzmaster!

      I got my duo-sonic hs in that green (changed the pickguard tho) over a year ago and haven't regret a single day, it's a really great guitar, easy to play, good pickups. The difference between them is that the "Duo Sonic" has 2 single coils and "Duo Sonic HS" has neck single coil and bridge humbucker..i would take the version with humbucker, it's a more versatile guitar and also it has coil split feature which means you can basically switch the humbucker to single-coil.

    I’m looking to pick up guitar and this interests me a lot. But do the mustang P90 and the regular mustang both have the same sound or are they slightly different?

      Hi Jorge, yep they'll sound quite different owing to the different pickup configuration. - Lee
