A Japanese exchange student I met posted it on Facebook and I checked it out. It was pretty cool. Not something I would expect to see/hear shown with a Mustang. :)

I'll probably get slated as a hipster fucking douchebag, but I really like this at the moment.

That's because he usually only used the bridge pickup and probably didn't care what was in the neck. And I'm not sure what you mean about Kurtified Jags: Kurt's Jaguar had no single coils and was even taped into bridge bucker mode. I think most of his single coil tone on Nevermind came from Strats or his LPB Mustang before he hotrailed it, only time I heard him use single coils live on the In Utero tour was for "Dumb" occasionally. He was by far and large a bridge bucker guy, and his Mustangs are not indicative of what most Mustangs sound like, nor his Jag. Since then there's been offshoots and variations of both guitars specifically to get his sounds out of them, in fact. People even expressed disappointment in the Jag-Stang not getting a good Nirvana sound. It's part of why the Cyclone/Toronado/CP HH Jags/Pawnshop guitars were all released before they had a signature version of all his Fenders, they're aimed at that market that wants a Kurdtzy offset without changing pickups and bridges and stuff.
