If you feel the mustang itself is a good option for you then I wouldn't hesitate. One thing I was really concerned about these were the quality of the fretwork and sharp edges.

It seems they've actually made new saddles for this. Fender's all like "we machined new parts for the '65 AVs so the price is $800 more than the AVRIs!" And Squier is all like "whatevs." They used the Fender MIM Blacktop Jazzmaster bridge, which is probably cheap generic Asian f...
