Andrew, I have a '64 2000 I'm thinking about selling if and when you are interested. I already have a nice 1000 so I'm not interested in a trade unless you have a good quality weissenborn you don't want. Pete W. btw, pretty 1000!

Looking for a sunburst pedal bar in good shape for a mid 60's, short scale, 8 pedal Fender 1000 with or without hardware. I'm trying to refinish the the repainted original and striking out on finding a decal for it. Bar length is just shy of 33". Thanks Pete W PS: Thanks to Chris Lucker for the...

Anybody know where I can get a Fender decal for my "second generation" '60's 1000 with the cast black pedals. I think it's around a '64? The one on my 2000 from the same era is about 4 1/8" long. The "F" is about 1 1/2" high.

Much thanks to all you guys for your comments and knowledge. I'll wax the dings and keep her at room temp and hope she stays as purty as she is. As you can see, she's not bad for an old girl. The pedal bar was metallic silver blue (?) when I got her so I've stripped that and am trying my hand at sun...

Billy, Most of the older long scale 1000's are blonde. Mine is short scale '64 and I'm pretty sure most of them were sunburst. It looks pretty nice.

George, Thanks for the response. I'd like to keep it just as it is and maintain the original finish. Got any suggestions as to how to keeps the dings small? Maybe a little wax just on the spots? I'd rather not do any touch-up for the reasons you mention above. I have a '64 Fender Jaguar that I bough...

The sunburst finish on my Fender 1000 appears to be in real good shape from a distance but close-up there are hairline cracks & checks all over. I'd really appreciate hearing about any tips on how to stop or reverse this problem before it's too late. There are a few small chips through to the ba...

I'm looking for 5 pedal rod ends for a Fender 1000. The photo shows the original. I just found 4 but need at least one more plus 5 of the "ball nuts" that attach to the pedal. Anybody have any before I go to the machine shop? Thanks Pete, W. http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix0903/8472_...

What's the difference between the new tube Fender reissues and the originals? The music shop guy says that they've just upgraded the circuitry to make them more reliable but they are basically the same. He couldn't elaborate.

Thanks for the advice Ken. I'll check out the Pro.

I just got my first PSG and now have an excuse to replace my Super Reverb that was stolen back in '69. Will this work OK with a Fender 1000?
