Guitar Reissue Dreams

true very true. i think they did do the cobain mustang but outside the humbucker theres no real similarities. plus the price is outrageous (at least on ebay) like you said the HH jags seem to do decently so maybe a reissue similar to his beloved jag with all the modded goodies.(complete with duct tape!!) one can dream...

I don't think so. Fender USA hasn't made a mustang in almost 30 years and the Mexican plant (the classic players are MIM) has never made one. So unless Fender Japan does something along those lines, I don't see it happening.

It would be cool if Hagstrom reissued the I, II, and III the way they looked when they came out.

I would love it if they reissued a bronco. A simple, 1 pickup guitar would hopefully keep the cost down a bit. Under the pickguard i would have it routed for 2 pickups so it would be perfect, good quality guitar for people to build on and mod themselves. Also a wider range of colours would be cool.

The mexican plant made Jags and Jazzmasters before the CPs?

If they do make a CP mustang, I hope they don't ruin it by putting a tunomatic on it.

I don't see why they didn't just put a Mustang bridge on the CP Jags/Jazzies. Yeah the radius is different, but they could have made the mustang saddles height adjustable. They fixed a problem that didn't exist.

Too many non-standard parts= too much retooling for a guitar that can still be had at $200-$400 for a vintage example.

Finding something "hard to accept" even though "you like it" is just straight "I want to be coool on the internet" lamness.

Just play the fucking thing
