Up for sale, a 2008 Fender Competition Mustang '73 vintage reissue model MG73-CO in showroom clean, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with hangtags. Produced exclusively for the Japanese market, this premium “Crafted in Japan” Mustang is rarely seen outside its country of origin, featuring a gloss Capri Orange finish accented by a red racing stripe.

The guitar weighs 7lbs 7oz, and the crisp, jangling voice when strummed acoustically translates well through the pickups. The single coil pickups have a clear, cutting tone, and the on/off/on pickup selector switches can also engage the distinctive Mustang out-of-phase sound when in the innermost and outermost positions. This Mustang has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar with 11-49 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
