Summary: The Mustang is a dual-pickup, 22-fret, medium-scale guitar and it has an offset waist like a Jazzmaster and was the first of the student models to feature a vibrato system. This 1978 Mustang has the larger headstock with “F” tuning keys that have more of a square shape. This model has three-ply black pickguard, solid black pickup covers and black pickup switches. This guitar has the original case and plays and sounds fantastic.
