Howdy!
I'm selling my 1957 Stringmaster T-8 ... MAKE ME AN OFFER!!!
1957 Fender Stringmaster T8, blonde, with 3 short-scale 22.5†necks.
All parts are original (as far as I can tell) except that I added new rubber leg-feet, and a new black plastic neck-selector “Fender top hat†switch knob.
All 6 pickups, switches, selector, blenders, and Tone & Volume knobs all work great!
All 4 legs telescope and lock perfectly.
The legs store in the bottom of the case.
The body has a few dings and a couple of cig burns.
The case is original and a bit beat up, etc, but all of the hinges, buckles/hasps, and leather hand-strap all work great. I did (stupidly) stencil my name on the outside of the case many years ago, but maybe that can be removed?
Everything works great, and it sounds AWESOME!
I looked under the tuner pans for a date (see photos) but I could not find it anywhere.
But all of the pots I looked at said: 304645, so the pots are dated: November 1956.
So that’s how I arrived at the date of 1957 (but other folks say its MAYBE a 1958 or 1959, not that it matters much).
I bought it in 1980 from a store in Claremont, California.
I’m now selling it … so that I can buy more gear!
Sold as is, shipping not included. (I live near Los Angeles)
MAKE ME AN OFFER!!
