    For Sale 1971 Fender Music master *price drop*

    I just got off the Phone with Don, and he said to please spread the word that he is going strong and taking orders. The previous limitations were from when his wife had health problems several years ago. So please pass the word along to all who will be interested that Don is still at it!

    I can only imagine how it sounds, lots of air moving there. I've been impressed how musical the speaker is. Not boomy and not thin, I really like it.

    Low Down Sound Club, Part Four

    Thanks! I love the short scale music master, and I had a great time rebuilding it. It was in need of a lot of TLC. It is now my favorite by far.
