All I know is I want a PJ Mustang or a JMJ but this offering is not for me. Agree on this NJE, I'd love to have the facility to adjust the rod on my MIJ mustang without having to take the bloody neck off. And I'm sure a set of lightweight tuners would improve the neck balance - Ironic that my MII Mikey Way Mustang has got much better balance than the significantly more expensive MIJ reissue.

Sibob Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Incase Fender are watching, yes, fail on that Mustang Jazz Pickup. Either don’t use one at all with the classic split cool shape (the newer P/J’s are fine), or do something cool like the lipstick p’up arrangement on the last page. This new layout looks lazy!

This with Lollipop tuners and you’d have an outright winner! Edit: On further inspection I just noticed the jack is on the edge of the body. Switch that back to the control plate and I’d be happy! 😂 Edited December 1, 2018 by skej21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait, it could have 2 stacked pots with tone and volume for each pickup- add $100 ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
