The Most Beautiful Thing I've Ever Put My Hands On

Packaged very nicely, first by Fender (bass was in a pretty nice gig bag, inside the Fender box), and then protected very well by Adorama. I love this bass! I had never played a Fender before getting this one, and wow, it exceeded all my expectations. Pictures do not do this classic masterpiece justice. A must have for any serious bass player. For me, it is the perfect bass as far as the neck, tone and weight. Pickups are HOT, and very versatile. I did however immediately replace the bridge to a Fender High Mass, but that's just me. Literally, this bass has taken my playing to the next level. Adorama was awesome.

Born in Corona, California, the 24"-scale American Performer Mustang delivers the exceptional tone and feel you expect from an authentic Fender, along with a unique feel and new player-oriented features that make it even more inspiring to play.

The American Performer Mustang includes the Yosemite single-coil pickups, designed for rich, expressive tones. With flat-staggered pole pieces to increase output and a shellac coating that lets the coil breathe while controlling feedback, Yosemite pickups produce dynamic sounds ideal for any musical situation. The American Performer Mustang also features Greasebucket tone circuitry lets you shape your highs without adding bass.

The "Modern C"- shaped neck sports a 9.5"- radius fingerboard that's comfortable for all playing styles, along with 22 jumbo frets for effortless and accurate bending. As a final touch, the vintage-modern Mustang bridge features grooved saddles that keep your strings where they belong, no matter how hard you play.

What's in the box:

  • American Performer Mustang Electric Guitar
  • Deluxe Gig Bag
  • Fender 2 Year Limited Warranty
