I don't want to splash the big bucks on a vintage one, but I want the vintage type. Thin fender style and basically as small as it can be but still a rectangle. Is there anything specific to get or is it just an ebay job? I could take the guitar to town and see what the guitar shops had. Last time I went none of them had even heard of an amp jewel let alone stocked any and parts that aren't for a strat or tele are basically unheard of, so I don't see anything but the most basic cases being on offer at not a penny less than rrp so I don't think it'll be worthwhile other than getting to try the guitar in the case.

I don't have the money yet so no rush.

I just use one of the universal rectangle cases from MF. There's a little extra room all the way around, but it's nice for a folded up strap and a couple small pedals wrapped in a t-shirt. I've never seen any small rectangle cases for mustangs.

I had one of those tweed ones, it was aftermarket new, made to look vintage, I paid like $40-$50 for it, it worked fine.

You want a proper case with plush velvet and a pocket, the guitar sits on angle. MM cases sometimes come up on ebay.

You can get a case on ebay for like 100 bucks at the most, I've been thinking of building one, just so I don't have to hassle with ebay and prices, plus I can make it as cool a I want.

I had one of those too and it stunk on the inside. I don't know what it was, but man it smelled like shit.

James - Get a new Fender case for the Mustang, they still make them..................... just as I wrote that I checked myself (and few sites) and they were not available, but did find them HERE.
I know Musicians friend had them once because I ordered three at one time, looks like they're not even listed now.
I dug around at a used guitar shop once and found a used Ibanez case that fit the Mustang perfectly. The guy let me have it for 20 bucks, so maybe theres a place near you that would let you
do the same?

That's the sort of thing I'm hoping for. I might take it in next time I have some money and see what's available.
