CIJ Fender Mustang 2002. SOLD £590 Rotherham

[martthebass]

It is with a heavy heart that this one goes up for sale but after careful consideration I’ve decided that some shortie bass consolidation is in order. I’ve currently got 3 shorties, two Mustangs and a Dano longhorn. The silver sparkle gets most use in the glam rock band (for obvious reasons!) so the other 2 will be consolidated into one.

So, what about this bass, well it’s been babied in my possession and in the possession of the previous BC owner so it’s in fine fettle for a 17 year old bass. It’s in candy apple red with cream comp stripes. This one has the stock Seymour Duncan pups which sound very smooth and punchy. There are a few minor dings and one small scratch (all pictured) but nothing serious or through the paint.

The guitar has had a full service and set up whilst in my possession and plays with a nice low action.

Gig bag only so I’d prefer a collection on this or a close meet up. No trades, sorry.

Thanks for looking 😊

That's beautiful - i've got a cream/white MIJ version and they're cool little basses.

Would love one of these! GLWTS.

That's a lovely looking Mustang. What's the width at the nut please? I can't seem to find specs for these online.

 

Cheers!

It’s a Jazz width nut my friend.

Edit, just checked to be on the safe side and it is indeed a 38mm nut.

I estimate between 8 and 8.5lb but I'll check when I'm back at the den

According to the tried and tested bathroom digital scales method it comes in on 8lbs dead.

[bassadder]

OK thanks was looking for something 7lbs or under

Think you’ll be lucky on a Mustang, most are alder or ash (or basswood in the case of the Mikey Way sig) with no body contours so I’d be surprised if you found anything less than 7.5lbs. You may get lucky though.

There's one on another site under 7lbs, but I really like JMJ Mustang so I'm looking at those as well

Are you wearing flippers? Nice bSs have a bump👍

Well, as it's expected, I will make a once only price drop on this to £550 - I'd prefer that the bass is collected as there is no hard case and I don't trust couriers with smashables.  This is a rare bargain guys. 

Happy to do a meet up as long as it's within 30-40 miles or so.
