"Beck" is the name of an anime cartoon in Japan about some high school kids who start a band or something. Never personally seen the show or know why they chose the names of two insanely huge musicians, but they've been putting out some really sweet custom guitars that appear on the show I guess, even Gibson had a Signatute "Japan Beck" Les Paul, I think.

That's not yellow. It's CO, Competition Orange. The only difference between those mustangs is that one is a '69 with matching headstock, while the other one is a '73 with plain headstock.

yea, I saw that (which is dope) but for some reason the orange one doesn't have a matching headstock. Wierdness.

I really like the white one... I wish I could get a Jag HH in Oly White. The dude who had that super rare factory see-thru butterscotch blonde Jag HH sold it on eBay last year; I bid up to something like $750 but had to leave and couldn't watch it till the end cuz I went to see the Hives in Calgary with an ex-girlfriend. I got back and it went for like $760 and I was like *fuuuuuuu*

1969 and 1970 had matching headstocks.

1971 to 1974 had natural headstocks.

Of course with Fender there was probably some overlap.

Ok you got me on color, the other differences with the '69 w/ matching headstock vs. the '73 w/ plain headstock, is that the '69 comes with "F" tuners, a bridge cover, vintage looking white tipped trem arm, and is the only one which comes with the vintage style white mustang decal.

They really tried to make it look vintage, to me, the extra attention to detail really makes a difference.

I'd love to own one.
