Aftermarket mustang bodies

Post by Pupuquek »

Hey guys I am looking for a builder who will make a vintage correct body that will gel well with a 70s B width neck I am about to purchase. Finishing is not needed, but would be a bonus. I read about Guitar Mill but they don't do them anymore.

P.s: is there aftermarket hardware for the mustang? Especially the tremolo unit. I would think no and I'm not sure if the japanese, RI or vintage ones are best.

Have you looked at warmoth.com? Good bodies there. They can also be the source for the trem.

Warmoth bodies are great, but not vintage correct. They have HB routs. Maybe try cooterfinger here. He makes cool stuff and could likely do a Mustang body.
