USED Fender / Mustang 1966 White [03]

We are pleased to announce the arrival of a mid-1966 Mustang.

The Student model was developed to promote Fender guitars at a price point affordable to students. It was a junior-sized model with a smaller body shape and shorter scale, and was developed in 1964 along with the Duo-Sonic II and Musicmaster II.
The model is equipped with a dynamic vibrato tremolo unit with a large range of motion characteristic of mustangs, and a slide switch pickup switch with three positions, which enables a unique phase-out sound output.

The pickups are equipped with the "Gray Bobbi" pickups from the original late '64 model.
Rear pickup is marked "7-25 66" and front pickup is marked "8-5 66".
The neck stamp has a B neck specification with "16JUN66B" notation, the pot date is stamped "304-6618" in both places, and a ceramic capacitor, commonly known as a "Circle D" capacitor, is installed, all of which are in original condition.

The nut has been changed to a brass one, and string guides have been added to the 3rd and 4th strings, but the string guides on the 1st and 2nd strings are genuine white nylon spacers.

The neck condition is fine and has been fretted and adjusted, and a shim has been placed in the neck pocket.

There are some weather checks, color burn, dents, scratches, and paint chips.
In addition, the logo decal has deteriorated, the pickguard has shrunk, and some of the hardware is rusted.

The large headstock is similar to that of Strat, which was changed from the end of 1965, the transition logo with "DES.169,062 204,098" and "OFFSET~" decal on the top of the head, F-key pegs and pearloid dots, which were used in the late '65. You can enjoy the unique specifications of the era.
The serial number is from the middle period, but the logo decal on the head is from the later period.

The neck is in player's condition, with a brass nut, string guide, and B neck for a familiar grip.
The sound is much thicker than conventional mustangs, and it has a strong presence both in clean and drive mode.

This is a recommended instrument that can be used immediately with its vintage style!
