I bought this from nick
it should arrive today in the mail-- I am excite because this will be my second short scale ever (1st was a china jagmaster that brought me to this forum)
I will update this thread with progress since I think it needs a bit of rewiring and such
also of course it my first mustang so any tips on what it needs would be helpful

+1 Nick's rep as a solid dude. Shipped in original squier carton!!! neck-on, well cushioned ,perfect condition.
Also, guitar is 100% playable now so I'll probably play it for a week or two before modding anything

Wicked. Mustang's are probably the coolest guitars of all time. Enjoy.

Glad you got it, it looks good. Definite agreed on the pg.
Fyi the neck is shimmed a little, and the bridge raised a bit. Already has electrical tape on the bridge posts. It's strung with 11-48 half rounds I think (just a cheap set I got on clearance I don't normally play with 1/2's). All that helps the bridge rattle a lot less than it did new out of the box. It was also my first Mustang and shortscale as well tho so others can probably weigh in a little better.
Have fun!
