That should be Fender's new body shape.

Is it wrong that I almost like that?

Not really I kinda like the shape to.

It is kinda alright in a cool way.

Amputated arm. I dont like it.

looks like someone took a crack at a jagstang

if he hadn't cut the bottom horn straight down and rounded it more it would have looked better, sucks that it's vintage but not a horrible guitar.

What a shame. Great color.

I'd like it if it wasn't all Lacy.

The pickguard needs to be properly beveled, however.

It just sucks that someone did that to a vintage Mustang. If it was a reissue or preferably a custom job I'd really like it.

They Did that to a vintage mustang?... wow what a monster seriously just modify teh kurtdz mustang not a vintage

...What if it was a vintage Mustang hackup, hacked apart in 1964?

then it could be deemed exceptible but still frowned upon

A lot of people have trouble understanding that Mustangs were the cheapo, "bullshit fender" option for most of their pre-kurdtz existence. They were the antithesis of what an electric guitar should be from the late '70s to the early '90s for the vast majority of guitarists. You could find them really cheap and no-one would look down on you for irreversibly making them a bit wackier, they may have even congratulated you on your resourcefulness. Someone more wasteful might have carved up an old Stratocaster, much more of a bonehead move, even moreso by current values.
Yes, they've become highly sought after now... but to be honest, I wouldn't have expected anyone to have seen that coming if I'd been buying guitars at the time, and would probably have an original dakota red pre-cbs COVERED in Human League stickers and Garbage Pail Kids.

MEGA-SCIENCE POAST

kudos.

with a proper pickguard that was rounded off clean around the bottom horn that thing would rule. all it needs is 20 dollars worth of work. everything else is already done

So, I was cruising photobucket and came across this,

Looks like some one bought it.

yea, that guitar looks clean as hell besides that one horn.

I don't know how I feel about this one...
