Fender MIJ Traditional '70s Mustang Left Handed, Vintage White

Full Description

Mustang Single-Coil Pickups

The set of low output single coil pickups provide this Mustang Guitar with a classic jangly tone, which can be heard on hundreds of underground recordings. These vintage-spec pickups provide the Traditional 70s Mustang with its beautifully clean, pristine tones, offering an incredible mid and upper harmonic range which cuts through the mix. The punchy low frequencies have become a famed attribute for guitar riffs and thick chord work, and these single-coil pickups can keep up with the harsh tones of alternative music.

Basswood Body

The Traditional 70s Mustang is crafted from lightweight basswood to provide comfortable and effortless play, while its unique tonal density delivers classic Fender tones. The tonewood's fat, well-balanced sound makes it ideal for a range of playing styles, offering excellent dynamics and definition for a focused punch and a muscular midrange.

Maple Neck & Rosewood Fingerboard

The maple neck tightens up the Fender Guitar's overall tonality, providing extra cut to help punch through dense mixes. Its comfortably smooth feel and slim ''C'' profile offers an incredibly fast performance, allowing players to deliver beautiful leads and solos with ease. The maple neck is paired with a rosewood fingerboard, bringing softer tones as well as smooth articulation.

Fender Japan Guitars

Fender Japan was established as a way for Fender to market their guitars to the Japanese market, allowing for the creation of low cost Fender guitars that still possess the high expectations and build quality of their American counterparts. Japan is often considered to be one of the leading places in the world for guitar manufacturing, and although most of the guitars produced are not sold in the UK, the FSR series allows players to purchase an exceptionally high quality and unique guitar.

The Fender Mustang

The Mustang has become a hallmarked shape surrounding underground music and culture since its launch in 1964. The Mustang was produced until 1982 and then reissued in 1990 where it a cult sensation as more alternative rock bands began to use it. This unique guitar has become a classic choice for performing musicians worldwide, and has been used by notable musicians such as Kurt Cobain, Dave Alvin, Matty Healy, Theresa Wayman, and many others.
