| The Musicmaster and Duo-Sonic were Fender's first 'student' type guitars, which were quite playable instruments with the right corners cut. The Musicmaster was the cheapest, with one pickup. There are three versions: One with an anodized metal pickguard (1956-1960) or laminated plastic pickguard (1960-1964), one with the controls on a separate metal pickguard section (1964-1975), and one with a black all-non-metal pickguard (1975-1980). These 'student' type guitars have a smaller scale, which is easier to play. | |||
