I am still wondering why Fender would give their new guitar model the name "Pawn Shop".
Fender '51
If anyone can recall, this '51 isn't something entirely new. Previously, there was already a squier version of it available, which was discontinued. This Pawn Shop features a push-pull spilt-coil system and the pickup selector comes in form of a 3-Position Rotary.
Fender '72
A modification of '72 Thinline? Somewhat I guess, just that the bridge pickup is an Enforcer and not a Wide-range. However, '72 Thinline is a Telecaster. This is more like a stratocaster featuring a telecaster's headstock. The same goes for '51. No pickup selector for this guy. It comes with a tone blender instead but they serve the same purpose.
Mustang Special
The old mustang features a set of single coil. The Pawn Shop is equipped with Enforcer™ "Wide range" Humbuckers. It also feature a different bridge; a '70-style Hard-Tail Stratocaster bridge. No tremolo bar this baby.
