Frequently Asked Questions

It captures the essence of a vintage Mustang but with a more modern clarity and slightly higher output thanks to the Alnico 5 pickups.
The Modern 'C' profile is generally comfortable, but the short scale might feel cramped for those with very large hands compared to a full-scale guitar.
The string-through-body construction improves sustain and resonance compared to a standard mounted bridge, contributing to a fuller, more vibrant tone.
