ALl I know is that these early ones were made in India or something. This was my first attempt at restoring a guitar, I did some things wrong, but I think the result is ok overall.

Nice job.   Adstar Username: Adstar Registered: 1-2007 Posted on Monday, August 20, 2007 - 5:04 am:    Thanks. Can someone change the titel of this thread to "Sunn mustang" or something, I screwed up when making this thread.   Gemberbier Username: Gemberbier Registered: 5-2006 Posted on Monday, August 20, 2007 - 9:06 am:    Sunn is owned by Fender since 1985. Their guitars got slightly different headstocks after a while. I found them less interesting than Korean Squiers, but I'm spoilt with my MIJ Fender Stratocaster (made by Fuji Gen Gakki). Fender Japan used this colour on the 1992 Squier Fender Silver Series (Hank B. Marvin model). Hyundai uses it on their Excel.

The Strat was Pearlescent White and generally well-built with decent wood, but the pickups were dreadful - really thin and sharp - real icepicks. I also had a Precision bass, which was my first. I'f I new then what I know now, I'd still have it. It was *really* good - great neck and a really decent pickup. Geoff
