Blending period-correct specs with modern reliability, this Vintera III model nails the look and sound of a mid 60s original. A comfortable mid 60s C neck profile, 7.25 inch radius rosewood fingerboard and vintage-tall frets give you that unmistakable vintage feel, while the floating Mustang tremolo invites expressive vibrato and subtle pitch bends. If you want authentic Fender offset character with the playability to handle modern gigs and sessions, this Mustang is ready to plug in and go.

Authentic Mid 60s Feel

The mid 60s C neck profile is designed to feel instantly familiar, with a rounded, medium-depth carve that sits naturally in the hand. Combined with the 7.25 inch radius and vintage-tall frets, it offers a smooth, comfortable playing surface that is perfect for chords, arpeggios and expressive bends, capturing the feel of a well-preserved vintage Fender.

Classic Mustang Tone

A pair of vintage-style mid 60s single-coil Mustang pickups provide the bright, chiming and slightly gritty voice that defined countless alternative and underground records. Expect sparkling highs, a punchy midrange and a warm, woody low end that responds beautifully to picking dynamics and your amp settings, from jangly cleans to crunchy overdrive.

Compact, Slinky Playability

The 24 inch scale length reduces string tension for a softer, more forgiving feel that makes bends easier and complex chords less fatiguing. This shorter scale is ideal for players with smaller hands, those who prefer a looser feel, or anyone looking for a different playing experience to a traditional Strat or Tele.

Vintage Styling with Modern Stability

From the gloss Dakota Red finish and aged white pearloid pickguard to the clay dot inlays and vintage-style tuners with white buttons, the Vintera III Mustang looks every bit the mid 60s original. Under the hood, precise modern construction and quality hardware ensure solid tuning stability and dependable performance night after night.

FEATURES

• Vintage-Style Mid 60s Single-Coil Pickups - Voiced to capture the character of original Mustang units, these pickups deliver bright, articulate tones with plenty of chime and bite. They excel at clean, jangly parts and respond superbly to pedals and amp overdrive, making them ideal for indie, surf and alternative styles.
• Mid 60s C Neck with 7.25 inch Radius - The comfortable mid 60s C profile and vintage-spec 7.25 inch fingerboard radius offer a classic Fender feel that is great for rhythm and lead playing alike. Vintage-tall frets give you enough height for clean bends and vibrato while still feeling authentically old-school under the fingers.
• 24 inch Scale Length - The shorter 24 inch scale reduces string tension for a slinkier, more relaxed playing experience. This makes the guitar easier to play for extended sessions, helps with wide bends and vibrato, and gives the Mustang its distinctive, slightly looser tonal response.
• Vintage-Style Mustang Floating Tremolo - The six-saddle vintage-style Mustang tremolo bridge offers smooth, controlled pitch modulation for subtle shimmers or more expressive vibrato. Individual saddle adjustment lets you fine-tune intonation and action, while the classic design keeps the look firmly rooted in the mid 60s.
