I love the simplicity of it. It just looks great and I've seen a few vids and a live performance with one. I must say that I was impressed. It sort of had a weirder twang. Where can I pick one up and for how much?

The Squier Classic Vibe version is a pretty decent instrument.

The Musicmaster is basically the exact same guitar with only one neck pickup....so you could buy one of those and add a bridge pickup and a toggle switch :D Late 1970's Musicmaster's are pretty affordable, usually around $600 to $700 bucks if they are in good shape! I found mine (already modded to Duo-Sonic spec) in a pawn shop for $350 so go shopping! Most years of the Musicmaster bodies already have the bridge pickup and toggle switch route under the pickguard too, so all you gotta do is pick a pickup and solder it in, cut a hole in the guard or buy a duo sonic guard, wire up a toggle and you're rockin !!!!
