2008 Fender MG-69 Mustang Reissue MIJ – Candy Apple Red w/ Matching Headstock & Gig Bag
Incredibly vibrant, Japanese-crafted 2008 Fender MG-69 Mustang Reissue in a stunning Metallic Red finish. This specific iteration features the highly coveted matching headstock, offering a sharp, premium aesthetic that beautifully updates Fender’s classic 1969 offset silhouette.
Built during a golden era of Fender Japan production, the MG-69 is widely celebrated for its elite build quality, tight tolerances, and exceptional playability. It easily outclasses modern entry-level alternatives, offering a robust, solid, and professional feel in an incredibly comfortable short-scale format.
Features & Electronics
Equipped with its original factory setup, this Mustang features a pair of vintage-voiced MG Single-Coil pickups. Utilizing the classic independent dual slider switches, you can access traditional neck/bridge sounds or put them out of phase for that signature hollow, funky lo-fi bite that made the Mustang an alternative rock icon.
Condition & Playability
-
Cosmetics: The Metallic Red finish looks spectacular. It has been meticulously cared for, showing only minor signs of light, honest playwear under direct light (faint surface swirling on the pickguard and gloss body). No major lacquer cracks, structural issues, or severe dings.
-
Neck & Frets: The maple neck features a highly comfortable "C" profile with a smooth gloss finish. The dark rosewood fretboard feels excellent under the fingers, and the 22 vintage-style frets show minimal wear with plenty of life left.
-
Electronics: 100% functional. The slider switches, volume, tone pots, and output jack operate cleanly without any scratchy noise or dropouts.
- Weight: 6.9 lbs.
