could you measure actual nut width? what is the neck profile like?

curious about these as well as the SX 3/4 guitars with 1.5" nut width on them.

the binding doesn't interest me that much on a mustang neck as it's kind of counter intuitive to the major reason i particularly like fender short scales (the rounded feel of a 7.5" radius on rosewood etc.), but I agree with most that it still looks like a nice neck (40mm nut). wonder why strat...

i guess what i meant was more along the lines of "this guitar makes no sense..." with the jaguar it doesn't look nearly as bad, but that flat body with the binding has to be the worst looking mustang ever (or at least we can hope this won't be topped).

NEW Fender Japan MG/HO MG69 Blue Mustang w/gigbag 4/15

so both of these guitars seem in need of some serious hardware improvements, but i also may be purchasing a mustang soon and might not be able to keep both anyway. part of me is thinking instead of just blocking that trem on the patriot i should just grab a cheap T-15 body and not waste the empty sp...

oh some measurements BTW for anyone who cares (for me its crucial in deciding what guitars i'm playing), here are the nut widths: Peavey Patriot: 42mm Memphis: 40mm (also it's 24" not 23.5) interesting how both these guitars are basically mustang/musicmaster "copies", same knob/jack l...

Did I mention the pickguard on the Memphis is beautiful?
how is this the only guitar i've seen with this awesome tort style for a pickguard??
i want to put one on a mustang (once i get one that isn't insanely overpriced... these $100 guitars are spoiling me)
