Does anyone know what the fretboard radius will be?

To be honest, for this sort of guitar I'd prefer if it had a flatter radius. If it has a more modern 9.5"+ radius I might actually consider getting one as a modding platform.

This is exactly my question, but hoping for opposite results. If it's 9.5" I'm out.

I'm still a little bit skeptical as to if these will actually hit the US or UK. Japan has been getting awesome mustangs and jaguar forever now and if it's a FSR, I'm not sure I'd be getting my hopes up.

that said, I am usually wrong about this stuff.

Well... we all fapped over the KC mustangs, then few months later they they were. I'm not necessarily confident, but I can definitely see it happening more so than I would have thought a year ago.

Did the spider man mustangs ever come stateside?

9.5 for sure, why would they do a 7.25 even every other classic vibe isn't. That said, do want! ask of my electrics have a modern fretboard radius, learn to evolve, man!
Would do an white with white scratchplate and black plastic. That'll look tits!
Classic vibe pickups have all been great in my experience, but I'd definitely do a hotrail bridge!

If we do get it, it's going to be at GC/MF/M123

I agree... I think it'll take a while at least.

Not quite relevant but isn't Ikebe and such more or less just a modding shop taking parts and creating cool stuff for the japanese market ?

Look how long the KC Mustang took to come over here.

Goddamn, Robroe was right. It's a fucking renaissance.

Even if these don't hit the US/UK, I'm sure we can still find ways to get our hands on them at decent prices.

See? It wasn't a Vintage Modified Mustang. That would be ridiculous.

Does anyone know what the usual MSRP to street price is in Japan? My sister lives in Japan, and I'm tempted to get this or some other Japanese only guitar, but if they sell at full list they aren't that attractive a purchase.
