Fender 2012 Pawn Shop Series | The Rare Birds
Fender Pawn Shop 2012
Fender call them… The guitars that never were, but should have been.
We call them… The nicest guitars to come out of Fender in a long time.
The New Pawn Shop Series Guitars from Fender consists of a Fender ’51, Fender ’72, Jaguarillo, Offset Special, Fender Mustang Special and Reverse Jaguar Bass. These lucky six have been brought to life, drawing inspiration from the eccentric and innovative Fenders of the mid ‘60s and ‘70s. A fascinating mix of diverse Fender components soaked in vintage style.
1960s-’70s design styling imparts an authentically “rare bird” pawn shop look.
