Up for sale, a 1978 Fender Mustang in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with a hardshell case. This sleek ‘70s Mustang features a gloss Black finish and all-black plastics.
There's plenty of snap, snarl, and cut available from this Mustang, and the ash body ensures a certain midrange authority and note attack. For chiming traditional single coil bite or the model's classic out-of-phase sound, this Mustang is an articulate and clear-sounding Fender that's simply a ton of fun to play. The guitar weighs 8lbs 4oz, professionally setup here at Mike and Mike’s Guitar Bar with 11-49 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss on the neck profile is clean and smooth save for limited palm wear along the edges of the fingerboard and a few shallow marks in the lower registers that are not distracting to the palm while fretting.
A black tolex hardshell case is included.
