Fender Duo-Sonic MIM
Price Paid: $200 used
Year Manufactured: 1994
Specs: Instrument's Specifications - 2 "Tex-Mex" single-coil pickups, non-tremolo bridge, extra-short scale (22.5 inches),

Sound: 3/5. It has the same Tex-Mex pickups found on other early MIM Fenders, giving it a hot, thrashy sound best suited for punk rock or grunge.

Instrument Quality: 2/5. Really nice finish, about on par with other MIM Fenders I've seen. The pickguard seems really flimsy and cheap. Shielding seems sub-par.

Playbility: 4/5. The super-short scale makes the Duo-Sonic really easy to play. Finger positions that would be awkward or downright painful for guitarists with smaller hands are much easier to pull off.

Overall Value: 4/5. Though it has its share of shortcomings, the Duo-Sonics low price makes it a decent choice for a beginner (like me), or anyone looking to spend a little money on something different.
