Product Details Introducing the vintage Fender Mustang from 1973! This iconic model, made famous by Char and Kurt Cobain of Nirvana, remains a beloved favorite among musicians and fans alike. Its appearance in various media, including anime, and the continuous production of new models are testaments to its enduring popularity. Originally released as a student model, the Mustang gained explosive popularity in Japan thanks to Char's use of the guitar. Production continued until 1982, after which Fender Japan revived it, further popularized by Kurt Cobain's use, leading to global demand. Today, Mustangs are produced in the USA, Japan, and Mexico. This Mustang, dated from the neck to 1973, retains the sound character of pre-CBS Fender, distinct from the heavier ash-bodied models of the late '70s.
