Hi to all!!!
Here's a guitar that i gave to my brother (Master Windu here); this is now his main guitar......
A Fender Mustang...... This one i got from Doc Arie quite a few years ago.....
When i got this guitar, the term "relic" was not yet in vogue..... But i feel that this guitar is a very good example.........
The original pickups were quite weak and anemic sounding; my bro decided to install Seymour Duncan alnico II pro pickups...... Now this guitar just purrs and roars........
The trem was way more rusty when i first got this guitar..... I used about a can of WD 40 and a steelbrush to get most of the rust off (not to mention about two hours worth of scrubbing)...... I have to say that this trem is quite smooth in operation; sometimes i prefer it to the stratocaster's trem.....
This guitar was well loved even before i got it..... Here's a pic of the neck.... you can see the wear on the upper part...... whoever formerly owned this beauty obviously loved to wail up there.....
I still get a strong SRV No. 1 vibe when playing this guitar.....
Thanks for looking!!!!
Chum and Master Windu
