Justin Meldal-Johnsen’s signature Mustang Bass is a seriously fun instrument. The short scale makes it incredibly comfortable, and those split coil pickups give you a huge range of tones – perfect for modern funk, indie rock, or anything needing a little extra bite. It’s a great choice for players who want a unique feel and a powerful sound without the heft of a full-size bass.

Frequently Asked Questions

It’s more aggressive and articulate. The split coils provide more upper harmonics and a tighter low end than a P-Bass’s traditional humbucker.
It's primarily cosmetic, achieved through a nitrocellulose lacquer process. However, thinner finishes can theoretically allow the wood to vibrate more freely, potentially adding a touch of resonance.
While comfortable for most, the shorter scale might feel a bit cramped. It's best to try one in person if you're concerned about reach and finger spacing.
