Yes, please.

Does it have the arm and tummy contours?

I dig the straight through stripes. It's more like an actually Mustang car.

that does look pretty sick. the matching headstock lets me forgive the HERESY of the stripe placement. ;)

Ok Fender, when do we get Vintera Compstangs like this?

It kinda makes me want to swap the pickguard and pickup covers on my Squier CV Mustang and add some stripes.

I wonder if pearloid would look better than flat white.

I dunno, I kind of like the flat white guard, though personally light blue stripes would look better. I wonder what a black 3-ply guard would look on one of these?

I also have a bias against red, though.

I think you could a lot of different stripe colors and it would still look great.

Red is my favorite color so this works for me. I have the 3 ply white pickguard and black covers on my Tuxedo-stang but I don't want to change that guitar. I have already been thinking of swapping out the tort guard for a white or pearled guard.

My brother is an expert with applying Vinyl so I might see if he can help me with the stripes. Besides the matching headstock I think I could get close.

not a fan of those stripes at all. I am sure they will be lovely though regardless of those.

Thanks, I've seen better days but I am still here :D
How's stuff been in the last decade?! Of course I was also MIA from offset for a good chunk of that time, had a whole host of drama keep me offline for the most part.
