Fender Japan has a track record of guitar press-stopping releases, but its latest – a revival of the cult classic Cyclone offset from the late ‘90s – is going to be extremely hard to top.
Not quite a Mustang, not quite a Duo-Sonic, the Cyclone first arrived in 1997, and was in production up until around 2006. Originally made in Mexico before a short US run, it had a poplar, rather than basswood, body, which weighed in slightly thicker than usual Mustang proportions.
