Hello, I will support your music life from Japan. I will do my utmost for the service you satisfy. Fender Duo-Sonic HS Special edition (2017) (no250413). The Duo Sonic appeared in mid-1956 as a sibling model of the Music Master. This machine is a Duosonic HS “Special edition” manufactured around 2017. The Offset series’ “DUO-SONIC” and “MUSTANG” are models used by various artists, and are known to have been discovered by alternative musicians such as Nirvana in the 90’s music scene, and have been widely reevaluated worldwide. The alder body has a maple neck, and the fingerboard is made of pau ferro wood. Pau ferro is one of the woods that Fender is switching to as an alternative to rosewood, which has been added to CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora), and is characterized by its clear and crisp sound. The short scale, versatile C-shaped neck, and 22 medium jumbo frets are designed to make it easy for people with small hands and women to play. The bridge is a hardtail type with 6 saddles that can be backed through to ensure string tension and stable tuning. Also, the cute proportions finished with the unique retro pop “Canary Diamond” are also attractive. Contrary to its compact appearance, it boasts a sound with a sense of scale. The rear humbucker has been replaced with “DIMARZIO DP151″. There are some small scratches and signs of use, but there is no noticeable damage and the piece is in good playing condition. About 80% of the frets remain, and the neck condition has no particular problems. The description is as detailed as possible. Due to the nature of the product, notation of all states may be difficult. For those who want to check severely, and those who want to know more detailed conditions.
