1968 Fender Mustang Vintage Offset Guitar Daphne Blue w/ Case
Up for sale, a 1968 Fender Mustang in excellent condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. 100% original save for a modern carved bone nut, this Mustang is one of the very last slab-bodied examples before the introduction of the âCompetitionâ series, featuring a greened-out Daphne Blue nitro lacquer finish, black bobbin pickups, and a flame maple neck.
Smooth and clear-sounding acoustically, this Mustang offers jangle and sparkle in the bridge position, with more warmth and woody cut at the neck. One of the most fun sounds on the Mustang is the out-of-phase setting, engaged when both on/off/on pickup selector switches are at their innermost or outermost points for a distinctive quack and spank. Weighing 7lbs 8oz, this Mustang benefits from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar with 11-49 strings, low action and accurate intonation.
Neck Specs:
-Wood: Figured Maple
-Shape: Medium C, measuring .835â 1st fret, .890â 12th fret
-Fretboard: Rosewood, 7 1/4â radius, light finger wear behind frets 1-3
-Frets: Slender, leveled/crowned, moderate wear on frets 1-7 (favoring the plain strings)
-Scale Length: 24â
-Nut: 1 5/8â, bone (replacement)
-Tuners: F-stamped, white octagonal buttons
-Serialization: Six-digit stamp (âFâ neck plate)
-Factory Markings: January, 1968 date stamp on neck heel
Body Specs:
-Pickups: Black bobbin single coil x2
-Harness: Untouched solder, CTS pots date to the 42nd week of â66
-Controls: Volume, Tone, Pickup On/Off/On x2
-Hardware: Dynamic Vibrato, bridge with barrel saddles, control plate
-Plastics: Three-ply white pearloid guard, pointer knobs
The gloss Daphne Blue nitro lacquer finish exhibits greening of the clear coat and limited checking and some isolated areas of wear through the clear and color coats on the body edges. Cosmetic wear is otherwise limited to minor buckle scuffing central to the back and and some minor dings consistent with careful use, largely on the lower bout. The neck is fast-feeling and smooth with considerable palm wear through the gloss and figuring in the maple along the profile length.
The original gray speckled hardshell case is included. The two outer latches function and the handle is intact.
