im guessing you have never changed the toliet paper in a store/bar/campground/or literally anywhere else besides your home?

I don't want the TP touching the disgusting wall behind it thanks.

Isn't it touching the wall either way?

I picked up a Vintage Modified Jag in seafoam green a fee months back. Apparently someone stuck a classic vibe mustang-style bridge on it.

I remember reading something about how most the 64’s were “A” width necks. I think once all that stock was used up between the Mustangs and Duo Sonics and Musicmasters they didn’t do many more. I think all 22.5 necks are A width.

That makes sense, the 1965 I played at Parkway Music that made me buy the 1966 was A-width. Same spec as mine but with the smaller headstock, oval buttons, plain neckplate etc. I went back to put it on hold and someone else had already done it an hour earlier. Now it's hard for me to imagine an even smaller neck than my B-width Mustangs so I guess I made out better in the end.

Just to confirm, the 64 Mustang neck on the Sonic Kitten is an A width neck.

I've missed the whole Prisonstang thing on the forum and just by looking at it now guessed it was a 70s model.

I think you’re right about the 22.5 necks. The 22.5 ‘62 Duo Sonic I had for a while was certainly an A width.

Nice video, thanks for sharing. Dan Erlewine is a legend for building that V for Albert King.

He was also in the Prime Movers with Iggy Pop pre-Stooges. They gave him the name Iggy.

Beautiful Mustangs. Is the worn one matching headstock gold or what? Really cool.

Also, my -64MM is 22,5” A and -71MM 24” B.

The -64 is thin at the nut but quickly baseballbats itself by the seventh fret. A cool, albeit strange neck.
