Description
Squier welcomes its first-ever Mustang guitar to the family in the sleekly diminutive form of the Vintage Modified Mustang.
With its distinctive 24" scale, dual pickup switches and floating bridge with dynamic vibrato tailpiece, it´s a classic modded with present-day touches including full-sounding Duncan Designed pickups and a 9.5" fingerboard radius.
Features include a maple neck with vintage-tint gloss finish, rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and parchment dot inlays, Mustang single-coil pickups with aged white (Vintage White and Sonic Blue models) and black (Fiesta Red model) covers, on/off-phase (in/out) slider switch for each pickup, master black skirted volume and tone knobs, tortoiseshell (Vintage White and Sonic Blue models) and white pearloid (Fiesta Red model) pickguards, floating bridge with dynamic vibrato tailpiece and vintage-style tremolo arm, and vintage-style white-tipped tuners
1965 was the first full year of production for what was originally a student model, the Mustang.
The model was destined for bigger things though, and was eventually seen slung over the shoulders of artists including David Byrne, John Frusciante, Kurt Cobain, Todd Rundgren and Adrian Belew to name only a few.
This reissue Classic Series ´65 Mustang has great color and cosmetic options, and many period-correct details (body wood, logos, etc.).
Features
Duncan Designed pickups, floating bridge with dynamic vibrato tailpiece, white-tipped tuning machines, gold-and-black Squier logo, engraved neck plate, parchment dot position inlays
Vintage Correct Styling that includes: '65 Mustang Headstock and Bridge Plate Logos, White Tipped Vintage Tuning Machines, Vintage Appropriate Gap Between the Control Plate and the Pickguard
