Where musicians go, you will find Fender !
" To help you select the finest instrument avaible for the young student your leading music dealer has a complete line of Fender Fine Electric Instruments (like the three-quarter size "Musicmaster" guitar shown above)
In 1956, Fender introduced the Musicmaster and Duo-Sonic guitars as affordable "3/4-size" short-scale student models. As such, they aren't considered as collectible and don't have near the value of Strats and Teles from the same era. The Musicmaster and Duo-Sonic were essentially the same guitar, with the addition of another pickup (in the bridge position) and a toggle switch on the Duo-Sonic. Both models received a slight facelift in 1959, along with all other Fenders. In 1964 the "II" variants (essentially spinoffs of the then-new Mustang) were introduced, and both models were revised and offered in a 24" scale length as well. Now essentially the same as a Mustang but with no vibrato system, the Duo-Sonic was officially discontinued ca. 1969. The Musicmaster was made through 1982, receiving a third facelift ca. 1976. A Mexican-made reissue Duo-Sonic was released in early 1993 but discontinued in early 1998. -> source: marcelroy.com

Ndlr: C'est la première gratte électrique de Zappa qu'il utilise notamment au sein du groupe "The Blackouts" viré de la batterie pour usage intempestif des cymbales...la faute à Varèse!
