Fender Mustang 1966, completely original, mine is Dakota Red.
Model designed to fill a gap between the entry-level model student and told the other called Professional.
No surprise, maple neck, guitar body so relatively heavy alder or ash, I do not know.
2 single coil pickups, 1 volume, 1 tone, 1 and 2 unreliable vibrato switch for routing microphones.

As I said above, I was surprised by the weight, this is not a lespaul but we feel that it's real wood tree that is forests.
Playing mainly telecaster, the handle is much thicker and rounder, small adaption time but it does it well.

I do not understand anything routing via micro switches but all the different combinations produce different sounds interesting and wish. This is certainly not a guitar for hard rock but sounds clear and overdrive on a good tube amp make this a killer guitar.
I play on different tweed Fender Champ silverface to blackface through and marriage is perfect.

Purchased initially to have a guitar in my year of birth does not need to borrow my future great grandchildren, I am pleasantly surprised that model that could be described as middle class.
Made at a time or make cheaper models do not rhyme with material means, a time or to earn money you sacrificed the number of benefit but not the quality of services, these guitars, Duo Sonic and Sg Junior example, went through years and always happy to offer those who love vintage because qu'ormis they start dating and that their price is often hilarious, these guitars are excellent and this is their application .
