1965 FENDER MUSICMASTER II MANUAL
The Duo-Sonic service manual issued by Fender in 1968 consisted of five sides on a single folded sheet: cover list of components - with part numbers and key to diagrams, (two sides) diagram of disassembled guitar simplified Duo-Sonic circuit diagram detailing pickup and control assemblies. Fender Duo-Sonic 1968 replacement parts list (illustrated) The Fender Duo-Sonic was deleted from the solid body range in 1969 these were the final parts lists for this guitar. This level of post-sales care was rarely seen amongst other guitar manufacturers - at least to the level of detail given here. Something that made maintenance of Fender guitars very easy indeed, even to guitarists without the technical knowledge to describe the fault in their instrument. In some cases, as in the 1968 list below, circuit information and assembly blueprints were also provided. This would typically include lists of replacement parts, to allow easy and accurate ordering of new components.

Fender periodically produced technical information, distributing folders of such information to dealers.
