Fender MG-69 Mustang Reissue MIJ Olympic White w/ Duncan Pickup 20316
Description (More pics below)
This is a 1997 Fender '69 Mustang MG-69 re-issue in Olympic White finish. It has a Crafted in Japan A+6-digit serial. The bridge pickup has been changed to a Seymour Duncan hi-gain rails pickup that sounds great. All original switching still works like normal.
Condition
Cosmetically the guitar has seen plenty of playing time with two dings on the edges and some marks on back of neck (see pics). Hardware all good. Tremolo works. Electronics sound good. Frets show some mild grooving. Plays great all over the neck. Very cool mini-tremolo bar a al David Gilmour. Also, some vintage Fender skirted amp knobs that looks killer.
Features
— Poplar body, maple neck w/ rosewood board
— Short scale (24”) C-shape, 7.25” radius neck
— Vintage spec pickups, switching, and tuners
Sound & Playability
These are great little guitars with a variety of tonal options thanks to the pickup switching, including in/out of phase. Obviously the Duncan gives you a lot more power at the bridge position than the stock single coil. Easy to get around the short scale neck. At 7lbs, 4oz. it's light and easy to handle and oozes Japan made quality. NO case. I do a full setup and expert packing: details below. Thanks!

Guitar Setup
Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Thanks!
Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 15 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "Still Kickin - How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
About Me
My store is a one-person small business that has been selling used guitars and basses for 15 years now. I do a basic setup and cleaning on every instrument I sell, so depending on workload it may be 1-2 business days before your guitar ships. When it arrives you can depend on it being, clean, set up, and securely packed. Check my feedback for confirmation. Thanks!
