Yeah this mic is great and an amazing value. When you do record vocals with it, you don’t really need a pop filter if you mix slightly off axis. It’s probably my favorite condenser under $800, which I say because I’ve never spent more than that for a condenser. Also a great drum...

It doesn't look like the Squier Mini is much smaller or even lighter than a Mustang. My brother was 11 when he got his first real instrument, a full sized 34" Jazz Bass, and he sounded fine on it. You don't need a capo to lessen the tension, you can use 9s. You'll struggle with full barre chord...

I would like to know. How is the tuning stability with light gauge strings? I have a few cheaper short-scale guitars with a fixed bridge that play wonderfully and sound great. But they become out of tune very easily with 009 or 008 gauge(with heavier strings I do not know because I use 009 mostly) ...

I, too, have two Bullet Mustangs, and I really like mine. My bandmate's HS Duo is a great guitar, too, and honestly, I think they're both great guitars and I wouldn't recommend either over the other because they both have advantages. At a basic level, though, the MIM Duos are probably going to feel ...

I have a pair of DiMarzio Areas with custom flat poles that I keep hidden under standard Mustang pickup covers (they kind of fit) and then I have another guitar with Fralin Blues Hot Mustang pickups in it. So both look completely stock. The Fralins sound really, really good, but the Areas are what I...

The problem originates from bad QC at the factory, but I'd expect the store to pick up on things like that and either fix them or send it back. I would've thought that a *good* place who actually care about what they have on sale would give every guitar that comes through their door a quick look be...

I played mine in rehearsal the other day. It's surprising how much I enjoy it. It's so different from what I'd usually play, but it really is such an enjoyable guitar. The radius, I don't feel that much difference, but while bending, it definitely does feel more like a Gibson than a Fender. I've bee...

One note on the tailpiece method, be very careful on the angle, if you don't go shallow enough you could drill through the body. Yes. That's why you want a really long bit. At least a foot long, so you can angle the bit shallow. Work nice and slow, don't push it, let the sharp spinning bit do the w...

I don't really like the bridge cup method. I don't think it's the most reliable way. The bridge might move in normal use, resulting in intermittent conduction, and if you use things like electrical tape or a Staytrem with sleeves whatever, who knows if the connection is solid. Regardless, the connec...

I dig the look but yeah, I'm not impressed at all with Mexican Fenders, least not for the money they charge. Squier Classic Vibes are a much better guitar especially considering price. When you get into the guts I'd be interested to see the routing, wiring and shielding they've done. Probably ceram...

Just an FYI.... I've now had three of these on my bench and with fresh quality strings and a good stretching, the Bullet Mustang holds tune quite well and isn't an issue. Both of mine stay in tune great. Better than a stock Fender Mustang, I'd say. I've read reports of people buying many of these g...

Isn't it easier to return to a retail store than an Internet site? Or is that an American tradition? It has nothing to do with fatter strings. You just have to run the old strings over the nut grooves a little bit, put a little vaseline on it, and put some new strings on. Mine stays in tune quite w...

Keep your eye out! Maybe someone sells them as parts, or maybe you'll see two for cheap enough that you can swap between them and sell the remaining guitar.

Hey Honey, you've played these and the CV Duos right? I love my CV Duo, it's like my 2nd fav guitar of all time. What are the differentiating factors, and in your opinion is the Fender "better"? Ya. Other bandmate has a CV Duo. Even if you have to have slotted tuners (which are easy to re...

The color selection bugs me a little. Well, more specifically the fact that they have completely different colors for the SS and HS Duo-Sonics. I like the Capri Orange a lot, and would love it on the HS guitar. It's hard for me to justify another black, green, or blue guitar. But orange? I don't ha...

This finish is super cool. It photographs really well because it has a little more depth than the usual surf green. It doesn't just become white under bright lights.

So I have a Squier Jaguar special laying around that I've been leeching parts from over the last year and decided to snag the neck and swap it out on the Mustang. It was a tight fit, I had to lightly sand the neck pocket to get it to fit. I also swapped the saddles with some that i found on eBay fo...

I got the electronics all squared away in mine. I couldn't do the push/pull tone pot though because the cavity wasn't deep enough for it. I still got some time to wait on the guard though so it's still the white one. Put some different knobs on it as well. CTS Push/Pull pots are usually about a fai...

I've changed the tuners on both of mine to Klusons because I prefer them but I wouldn't write the stock tuners off until a fresh set of strings and some nut lube. Straight out of the box, the guitar didn't hold tune that well which I attributed to the tuners and nut but after a fresh set of strings...
