Re: New Shawn Mendez sig Fender Musicmaster IS NOT OFFSET
I have erased all my posts and the title of this thread until this guitar becomes offset. Sorry. I didnt realize it was that big of a deal.

Re: New Shawn Mendez sig Fender Musicmaster IS NOT OFFSET
None of those posts were directed at you, Rob. It was an annoyance with some of the recent marketing and the way it's being described on YouTube and other places.
I actually didn't even notice you were the OP.
That being said, we got to call it like it is. This thing and the Duo-Sonic reissues are as offset as a Tele.

Ferbis!
Yeah jeez, if only there was a Non-offset guitar talk sub-forum around the place here.

Then shouldn't the mods have moved the thread??

Something like 5 out of 8 mods don't even post anymore, and haven't in years.
The admin crew really needs to recruit more mods, who would be active.
There are several active long time posters, who would make great moderators.
Zhivago is an admin, and seems to be the most consistent these days at moving threads to the right places. Sookwinder does as well.
I guess neither of them bothered to check this one out, and nobody bothered to notify anyone.
I don't think the active mods are lazy, or anything. This place has mostly moderated itself over the past four or five years, not to mention it is nowhere near as active on here as it was before Reddit, Facebook and other social media stole a lot of traffic.
When I joined 11 years ago, it was crazy busy on here. New threads popping up all day long. Mods were very active and involved.
There hasn't been a troll or real jerk poster on here in a real long time, and it's been real slow in comparison.
I love this place and will post here until it ceases to exist, like I did on the old Sonic Youth Fullerine forums, and the old fuzz forum I frequented.
I know, that I am one of the guys, who is vocal about what makes an offset, but usually only when new posters make errors.
My earlier rants were actually all directed towards outside sources, and I actually didn't even realize this thread was in the wrong section until hours after my original post.

Yeah! I wish I could've been here back then. I like the facebook groups and all, but it's horrible on the long run because finding old posts/info in there is hell, whereas here everything is somewhat organized .
About the whole offset debate, I always think musicmasters and other mustang-like shapes were kind of "adopted" into the offset family. Yeah, technically they're not offsets, but they are in my heart

If you want something moved (or moderators attention about a post generally), hit the 'Report this post' icon and provide a sentence in the 'Further information' field as to what the problem is/what's being requested.
