I haven't done a #MandocasterMonday in a while! 😂 . Here is a unicorn of a #Fender #Mandocaster from 1964, in very rare candy apple red custom color (and though not pictured, it has its original case as well, @gavinhornsey!) from a private local collection. Pictured in front of Fenders tiniest of narrow panel tweed amp, a late 50s Champ. . #fendermandocaster #mandolin #electricmandolin #vintagemandolin #vintageguitar #vintagefender #fenderguitars #guitar #guitars #vintageamps #fenderamps #tweedamp #guitarphotography (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWBM8Hur1oE/?utm_medium=tumblr

Spotted this insane little #Fender Mandocaster (IN CUSTOM COLOR Candy Apple Red!!) on my guitar safari a couple of weeks ago so I figured I'd do a LONG overdue #mandomonday! 😀 . I have only seen 2 or 3 other vintage #Fender Mandocasters in my whole life and they have all been sunburst. That's why when I spotted this candy apple (with mint guard no less!) early 60s model in the corner of the showroom I went berserk and had to play it right away. Then, to my chagrin, I learned than mandolins are not tuned the same as guitars and what I played was complete gibberish. 😂 Anyhoo: still the coolest Mando I have ever seen! . . #fendermandocaster #mandolin #electricmandolin #fendermandolin #vintagefender #guitar #guitars #fenderguitars #vintagefender #vintageguitars #electricguitar #guitarphotography https://www.instagram.com/p/CS7LpPYALZh/?utm_medium=tumblr
