Factory Stop-Tail Configuration

What really separates this Mustang from the more familiar MG69 is its factory fixed-tailpiece design.

Instead of the traditional Mustang vibrato assembly, the strings anchor directly at the fixed tailpiece. It gives the guitar a simpler, more direct setup while retaining the compact proportions and short-scale feel that define the Mustang.

It is an unusual configuration and a great alternative for players who love Mustangs but don't need a vibrato system.

Matte Black & Matching Headstock

The Matte Black finish and matching headstock give this Mustang a dramatically different appearance from the traditional vintage Fender colors more commonly associated with the model.

Paired with the rosewood fingerboard, the understated blacked-out aesthetic works especially well with the Mustang's compact body shape.

Classic Mustang Electronics

The Fender Japan MG-Vintage single-coils retain the clear, focused character expected from a Mustang, while the individual pickup switches provide the model's distinctive switching options.

Combined with the 24" short scale, this guitar has the compact, comfortable feel and immediate response that make Mustangs such distinctive instruments.
