Swinging in

If you are into estranged outlines as seen here, this Fender Swinger is now in stock at Swee Lee (List: $1,329). Just keep in mind that it's a 24" scale instrument; rather disturbing that it's strung up with a set of 9s from the factory.

This was last week's trending feed; Fender reissued the Swinger. This model here is how the original Swinger looked like, just a single neck pickup & that's how it's reissued.

A more sensible two-pickup option is also available. I'm more attracted to this olympic white finish with a matching pickup cover. 

These are limited runs, if your distributor stocks Fender Japan instruments, chances are, you might see it in store next year. Looks like the world has a fetish for ugly headstocks. This is the second hideous headstock to turn heads (forgive the pun), the first:

Ok, let's not judge the instrument's performance solely by the headstock outlines. Hopefully, these would make it here for nostalgia's sake.

I'm really hoping they do a Bronco re-issue. 😓
