Serial Number: N2 925901

Made in 1992 USA

Very rare, these guitars do not come up for sale very often. Prices normally start around the £2,500 for used ones and they are normally abroad. Save on tax/import duty with this virtually unplayed example.

Originally bought new in 1992/3 by a professional musician as a back-up guitar. This guitar is in almost unplayed condition. One small chip on front - accidentally caught it with the jack plug. Zero fret ware. Stunning condition for a guitar that is now 32 years old.

From a Fender site:

Here is how that mini-switch works: 

Up - activates the front bridge pickup which creates an out of phase hollow sound. A bit like a Strat quack. 

Middle - has the bridge pickups in series creating a hot humbucker sound. A single Lace is hot enough, operating at 12k, but run two in series and you have a whopping 24k. 

Down - activates the back pickup on the bridge to give a single coil sound which mimics that bright biting tone of a Telecaster bridge pickup. 

The distance of the pickups from the bridge creates different tones. The Dually was mounted on the body using a small metal pickup ring.
