Thanks so much for supporting TomoFujitaMusic!!
That was Hendrix's guitar of choice before he started playing Strats. I love the Duo's myself!
YES! Hendrix played vintage Duo Sonic (from 1961-1963) SB!!
That is wicked!! Cheers.
"There's a story behind white Duo sonic.. We were setting up for rehearsals at the old Swinghouse in Hollywood. A couple of the crew guys and I were sitting outside at a picnic table in the parking lot. The band hadn't shown up yet.
A kid (maybe late teens) walked up the driveway with that guitar. It was trashed. At some point was in a swimming pool. And at another point was in a police evidence lockup. The kid said he heard it was once John's. And wanted to return it to him. We said "Ok. He's not here right now, but we'll give it to him", assuming it was probably a bullshit attempt to meet the band. He said thanks, gave us the guitar, and walked away.
When John showed up later, we kind of flippantly told him the story, and gave him the guitar. John took it. Looked at it. And quietly smiled and said "wow". I said "Why wow?". Then John said, "I wrote Under the Bridge on this guitar". We never saw that kid again." - Dave Lee (John Frusciante's technician)

I don’t think it was his choice, Either he was lumped with it or the band bought it as it was the cheapest. It must’ve been hard for Hendrix to use.
I have a 1957 Fender Duosonic, I bought in 1968 when I was 11 years old from a neighbor. I played in bands for years. Still have it but it stays home now, my 1972 Telecaster and '86 Strat go on the road with me.
Awesome! Amazing little guitar with big tone!!
I have a Fender Duo Sonic 1963 model that I just restored and it's a beautiful sounding guitar mine was made in June of 1963.
beautiful! Please enjoy!
Love this guitar. Especially in your hands 🎶

I had a Duo Sonic II and loved it. Yours is very nice. The Duo Sonic II was based on the Mustang but had no tremolo. It was a hard tail like your Duo Sonic.
Awesome!!!
What do you think this 22.5 inch neck 1963 Vintage Fender Duo Sonic?
TomoFujitaMusic one of the coolest guitars I’ve ever seen! Thank you for your wisdom as always 🙏🏼
What?
I will proofread for you in exchange for guitar lessons
Cool guitar Tomo. I've been inspired by you to expand my knowledge of chords. Having a blast learning more and its actually improving my solo construction. Thanks again!

Because of the scale length it kind of bridges between a Fender and a Gibson. A more buttery twang. And I dig how the neck pickup is kinda in between where a neck and middle pickup would be on a Strat. It seems like it would be great fun to bend the heck out of those strings. Like crazy Roy Buchanan bends!
22.5 inch neck! Very special!
I have a 90s reissue duo sonic. it has the same scale 22 & a half inch.
Wow! Awesome!!
Thanks for an informative video. My first guitar was a 63 Musicmaster. Last year, I found one like it and bought it. Great guitar. You can do so much with one pick up, it’s all in the technique.
Thanks so much! Awesome!! Musicmaster is so cool!!

Just purchased one of these today. Also a white 63 with Brown one ply. Its a gorgeous guitar. Its my second now and your videos have been a big influence for my choice to get my first vintage fenders. I was curious if they are really that great and they definitely are! The normal sized vintage fenders are too expensive for me, but maybe someday i could find a player for a reasonable price. Thanks for your great videos! Always enjoy your joy of playing the guitar!
Great! Please enjoy! You're welcome!
I'm very tempted to sell all my other guitars and get a 58 or 59 duo sonic. The combination of vintage Fender tone and the tiny neck is just so cool.
Please play it somewhere... amazing! From 1956 to early 1959... the neck witdth are as wide as a regular Stratocaster or Telecaster. From late 1959-1964... the neck width became smaller.
I have other videos too...

My 1956 desert sand never comes out of the case. Sad, I know, but this video has inspired me to pull it out. Mine was an attic find. A student of NYU purchased it in 1956 on west 4th street in Greenwich Village NY. He used to pluck notes on it while reciting poetry at the Cafe Wah on MacDougal street. He took exquisite care of it and even saved the case key, owners manual and the case candy.
Thanks for the video. What amp are you using in the video?
Awesome!!!
I adore my orange Fender Duo Sonic.
Awesome!
Hi Tomo. I am a Fender lover too. I have a 24 inch late model Mustang I like but I wish I could have a 22.5 inch scale you you have here with your vintage Duosonic. Back in 1991 I received from my wife a glorious Christmas’s present. She knew I loved the Beatles and liked John Lennons Black Rickenbacker.p325. My brother helped pick it out for my surprise gift. My brother told her to get the full scale model rather than the short 20.5 scale much to my disappointment. How could I say this is not the one I wanted after the time sacrifice and money she put into this wonderful guitar. Both guitars looked the same other than the length of the necks. I understand why my brother urged her to get me the longer scale. We played music together often and he said the longer scale would be better for my technique. I understood but I liked the looks of the short scale Rickenbacker 325.
I still have my signature black triple pick up John Lennon limited edition 355JL.
When I saw you video on your short scale Duo Sonic it brought back memories of the short scale guitars. I have short fingers with limited reach, another justification for the short scale Rickenbacker I never got. Ha ha. I would love to get one of the 22.5 DuoSonics like yours. My hands would be in heaven. The only other guitar I played at a music store with a short scale was a Gibson Byrdland 22 or 21 inch scale I think. It was nice but hard to reach the upper register of the frets due to the single cut away and very large body. Great guitar though. But way out of my affordability. Around $10,000.00 New and they hold high resale price.
Anyway, love your videos and your playing. You are a Master Player or Monster Player.
Kind regards, Jerry PAUSA
Thanks so much! These vintage Duo Sonics, Musicmasters are so special to me! Enjoy your guitar!!

Gerald Doherty - Look around for an early year mustang neck, usually 64 or 65s. The 22 1/2’s have 21 frets while the 24 inch have 22 frets, so they’re easy to spot.
Hi Tomo, nice sounds. Some of the early mustangs came with 22 1/2 inch necks, probably some of the leftovers from the duo sonic / music master line. I have a mustang with the 1964A neck that’s a 22 1/2 inch which is on one of my beater mustangs. Very similar in feel to the MM\DS necks. The 24 inch scale necks had 22 frets while the 22 1/2 inch scale had 21 frets so they are easy to spot.
Thanks so much! Yes. A neck... and B neck. That's awesome guitar!!

Cool it reminds me of the Jazzmaster "J.Mascis" guitar (I bought that guitar in Korea) but these are slab guitars or offset body. Great videos (I am using a old (copy) Gibson 3 pickup Switchmaster) I have 12' flat wounds on it and it sounds great. I will keep watching.
Similar vibe!! Offset guitars!! Thanks so much!

The Duo sonic/Mustang has a beautiful design, I love it. The only thing I don't like about that instrument is the scale. I'd never swap a component of an antique and original jewel like yours, but if I had the chance to mix an actual Mustang body with an standard strat neck, I´d try it with no doubt.
Greetings from Spain.
Thanks so much! I hear you... not easy to play! But I have learned hoot play soft! This instrument made my touch!

Wow! I never knew these guitars existed! The Duo Sonics have such an interesting and *different* sound to them.
This really makes me want to try a 22,5 " neck guitar. Not to replace my 25,5" or 24 3/4" scale guitars, but to add some "new colours to the palette" so to speak.
Thanks for a great video!
i love my '63 musicmaster, great play!!!
Awesome!!!

Sensei Tomo,
I really enjoy my Squier classic vibe duo sonic and Fender hs duo sonic. Yes, the 22.5 scale and 24 was available, but the 24 was more popular. Later on, Fender electric instrument company (cbs) used the left over 22.5 necks for the Fender Swinger or arrow/music lander (from “The golden age...” book). Would love to have a vintage duo sonic, but my playing needs to get better and my wallet. 🙂 I like your guitar playing (clean, funky, etc.).

tomoさん、こんにちは、こんばんは。1963年にこの完成度って素晴らしいですね。white bodyもvery nice👍😄🎸
ありがとうございます。このギターは、当たりの個体です！
I settled for a brand new Player Series Duo-Sonic. I love it dearly already! I just wish Fender didn't have to insist on putting a notoriously cheap three-way selector switch in them. Oh well, I still love it and next time I change my strings I'll have the switch replaced and I'll be good to go!
Awesome! Looking good! Post that on Instagram! Tag me! I have older Squier Duo Sonic so maybe I should do a comparison between that and vintage Duo Sonic?
@@TomoFujitaMusic I'd love to see that comparison!
TomoFujitaMusic definitely!
Very good for Jazz
Thank you!
I would have to try it to find out😋😂
Theres a nice one for sale right now. I think i need to go back to the 24 inch scale. For practical reasons of its just shorter to the next fret.
Yes. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for making this video! I have mine loaded with an EMG single coil and humbucker. It is truly a quacky tonal machine. Yours is as well a beautiful instrument. This offset fender really is inspiring to play fun music. Hope everyone has a chance to play one at some time.
Thanks so much! I used to use EMG pickups (from 1985-90)

I got the 1993 Mexican made Duo Sonic, nice guitar. I know Fender just re-introduced the Fender Lead II guitar but it would be nice if they introduced a pure Duo Sonic guitar but with a 25.5 inch scale.
Awesome!
Just brought a late 1964 Musicmaster neck without checking the scale length haha.
Never played anything below 24' so I'm hoping she's not too small. Still pretty keen though as Ive never played a Vintage Fender before.
22.5 inch scale!
great tone

Love your technique and I have a 64 Duo-Sonic in Olympic White that I love. One thing I noticed and wondered about was the difference in tone in the middle and neck positions. I'm not hearing a lot of difference in tone with the exception of some hum cancellation and a slight volume boost. Is this what you have found and is that how it should be? Thank you.
So happy to hear that! Thank you so much! Definitely the middle position is different from just the front pickup. Very sweet tone!
Great ! Love your plating style. What scale di you use (not a minor penta) ?
Thank you so much!
good for short fingers/small hands? Perfect for me then! Would love to get one to learn how to play guitar :)
Great! Please join my Guitar Wisdom! Thank you!
@@TomoFujitaMusic Thank you, Fujita san! I just found your Guitar Wisdom playlist on your channel. I will start watching the vids and look for a small guitar at the same time :) Cheers!

Yes. It's not easy to play it but fun!!
Hi Tomo, just found your channel but so many of ur videos are helping me understand the guitar like never before - thank you! Also, the settings you quote on HRD are fantastic, mine is sounding so much better and inspiring ... do you tweak settings for different pickups or is it set and forget? Cheers :)
Thanks so much! So great to hear that! A lot of people don't know about me! Yes, first I spent pretty long time figuring out the best pickup height for each guitar. That changes amazingly!! I can make your expensive guitar sounds like shit (wrong way to set!!)

Thank you for this Tomo, this was a great video of an incredible guitar. Would you consider the Duo Sonic from later years like 1966 as good? Is there a difference with the Duo Sonic II? I'm considering buying one but don't know much about it and you seem to be the master Yoda of Duo Sonic / Music Master :)

I love short scale guitars like Mustangs but really want a 22.5 fender. I love the looseness of the strings combined with thick string guages. Can this guitar be gigged as a main guitar ? Will it stay in tune and be a good enough design to be a main instrument. I couldn't care less how it looks and the fact it's a student model. My concern is it will hold played regularly live and not be a nightmare tuning wise. Do you think this guitar is too limited to be used exclusively in a band ? Are they adjustments to string guages or after market parts that once modded will hold up just as good as any guitar ? I never seen anyone gig one as there main guitar and use one regularly but you. I have a vintage Rickenbacker 325, Vintage Fender Mustang , and Vintage Gibson 3/4 melody maker. The short scale I absolutely fly on and enjoy the feel and sensitivity of bends. I really play better with short scales. But can this be setup to be a main exculsive guitar for regular playing and performances ? Also do you think it be better suited or less suited to slide playing. So close to buying one. Really need some advice before spending good money. Love your channel just subscribed

Hi, I have an original vintage Duo Sonic, and I was told when I bought it used way back in 1979, that it was made in 1957. I tried to contact Fender to somehow get the year verified, and they couldn't help me.
Do you know how to determine the true build date?
Thanks!
Neck date & check the volume pot, Tone pot... You can find out!
Neck and pots gave no date stamps but look original
Duo Sonic can do cat sound too???? This is a game changer.
YES!!
Have you tried the player duo sonic?
No. Only vintage ones
I know what you are saying about not wanting to wear down your frets. Protect the original vintage frets.
My 94 MIM DuoSonic has 12 frets which are just chewed down and grooved . The fret board on it is showing wear. Mine is a 1994 and the frets are dead . Yours is 1963 and still with original frets.
Those vintage Duo Sonic,Musicmaster are amazing! Great quality!
you made me want to buy a new one )':
What should I say?
@@TomoFujitaMusic they look and sounds awesome! thank you for making this video tomo!
How do you get those bends on 7.25 radius?
Practice!
I have a 1956 Duosonic. I always put it down because the pups are underpowered and it always seems to loww
That's great! I love 1956 Duo Sonic too! Turn up your amp!!
@@TomoFujitaMusic - LOL - I have a '67 18watt combo Marshall, Fender blues Jr heavily modded, and a Peavy classic 20. Maybe I need a bigger amp :) . What amp are you going through? It seems plenty loud
One question: what gauge strings should I have on my 22 & half inch scale Duo Sonic?
11-49 set is good choice~
@@TomoFujitaMusic thanks man!
how many duo sonics do you have? i wonder how long you can keep switching them every two weeks until you come back to the first one
I have a few vintage Duo Sonics. Thank you!
what is your opinion of the musicmaster II from the mid 60s? any good?
All depends, good one is GREAT! I love 1963
I think i would like it for around $300 but i cant justify buying an expensive guitar and it would be devastating to me if I damaged a vintage instrument.
That price was 25 years ago!! Now it's around $2500-3500? This guitar was built so great!! You cannot break it!! Amazing quality!!
Despite the difference in scale ....do the new duos sound like the old ? ....(or close enough? )
New Duo Sonic is not anything close sound as vintage Fender Duo Sonic!
@@TomoFujitaMusic oh .....thnx ....sad to hear that ...probably best to get a jag ? or jazz? ...or is the NEW duo still a good guitar ? -thnx

Yes. Duo Sonic has two types. One is from 1956 to 1964 (22.5 inch neck) and Duo Sonic ll (24 inch neck) and Mustang has a dynamic tremolo arm!!
It's awesome?
Thanks!
