Then you want a '65 or '69 reissue. Yeah still leaning towards the '65 because I like the slab. But damn the neck scares me as I will be purchasing online so I won't have a chance to play it first. The Squier VM neck I have played is so fat. I love the size of the guitar but the neck is just so fat...

Are the 70s Mustangs only in the competition colors with that stupid stripe? I think any sort of stripe on a guitar makes it look absolutely repulsive. compstangs were from late 68-early 73. everything after 73, the colors went to shit. you get to choose from buttrock red, natural wood, white (hard...

I wish I could play a jag-stang but I will have no chance of finding one of those in a store... I want more of a single coil pup sound though so that deters me a bit.

Buy a 70s Mustang. You'll get one for about the same money if you're patient and look around. My favourite one is my 70's one (I bought it from someone on here) Is there a specific year to look at? Or just "70s" I don't hear much about these on the web, could you tell me why you'd recomme...

after you play guitars for a really long time they become less and less about the guitar and more and more about the neck. the guitar can look like a giant dook, but put a nice slim C shaped neck on it with 7.25" radius , skinny frets, and ill play it all day the gutiar part....you can replace...

I hear so much good about the Jag-Stang neck but then I hear that no matter what pups you put in it, it will always sound like shit... So conflicted!

the 65RI has better quality/sounding everything. but the 69RI is better. the 69RI (mine is a compstangRI) has a slimmer neck. it wins. its closer to a jagstang neck. not quite that small but close. after owning the compstangRI for 15 years and the 65RI for 10....it was the 65RI that got sold, and i...

What, really? Even a shitshow like Dawsons in the UK has at least one or two shortscale Fender guitars in at any given time. Surprised somewhere as big as GC wouldn't stock them. I found my Super-Sonic at the Sam Ash but that's almost an hour drive so I only go there every few months. They will hav...

I've noticed on some Mustangs they have black pups and some have white. Are there any differences in these? I have seen several listings on Reverb in the past of a '65 reissue and one will have black pups and another will have white but the user says they didn't change the pups so I don't know?

If memory serves its not as fat as the VM, but I wouldn't call it thin. Go and play one in a shop mate, there's gotta be one near you with one in stock? Pfft yeah right, all the local Guitar centers have is generic guitars and local shops have random guitars I have never heard of that are way overp...

Might have to sit on it for a longer period of time if the prices keep going up. Not a bad guitar, just not what I am looking for soundwise and wasn't a huge fan of its comfort while standing up. Have my eyes on a Mustang right now.

What is the neck like on the '65 RI? I thought the squier neck was a tad too fat too so I would hope the '65 has a bit of a thinner neck.

So far out of the research I have done I am leaning towards the '65. I don't care about body contours (I think the slab body is much sexier anyways) as I have no belly whatsoever at this point in my life and I tend to play my guitars very high up on my torso. The better pickups sounds like a big plu...

The only mustang I have played thus far is my friends Squier VM without plugging it in. I love the feel of the guitar (neck is a little chunky which I have heard is different from the fender mustangs), but I love short-scale necks and small guitar bodies. The Jag-Stang also intrigues me but I have h...

I am considering purchasing a Fender Mustang via the internet (I cannot find them anywhere in stores) and was wondering which people on this board preferred stock. I am looking at: • '65 Reissue (daphne blue) • '69 Reissue (sonic blue) • KC Mustang (Sonic Blue) I also hear people talk about a ...

Wish they had prices for the Purple Sparkle one... I rarely see it for sale anywhere in Purple.

I don't see many of the gun metal variety on various marketplaces so I figured I'd at least ask the community here seeing as many of you are the type of people who would be interested in such an axe.

Hi, I have had a Fender Super-Sonic for around a year or so. It is in pristine condition as I have taken great care of it and haven't played live with it. There are no dings whatsoever and the only damage is probably just the minor scratches on the pickguard that every guitar that has some sort of p...
