Fender Player Mustang MN Sonic Blue Ex Display
Although the Mustang is not as famous as Fender's more traditional models, the Mustang body has become a model adored by many for its comfortable feel, unique shape and incredible tone. Although it was first presented in the '60s, the '90s saw the Mustang soar in popularity thanks to grunge, rock and indie suits.
Overview:
The main feature that separates the Mustang from other Fender models is the 24" scale length (distance between the bridge and nut). A shorter scale length means lower string tension making it easier to fret and bend the strings and also provides and warmer tone. This is great for beginners or experienced guitarists who want something different in their arsenal. Short scale guitars also pair with heavier gauge strings if you want a thicker tone without super-tight strings that could strain your fingers.
This guitar features two Mustang-style single-coil pickups with a 3-way toggle switch. In the neck position you get warm, smooth tones, in the middle you get spanky funk tones, in the bridge you get a brighter, more biting tone. The single-coil pickups provide clear and articulate sounds, but as mentioned earlier, Mustangs were beloved by grunge and alternative artists so they definitely handle dirt well!
