Reissue of a Fender Classic!

Fender is proud to reissue the '65 Mustang, (which was the first full year of Mustang production). The Mustang was originally one of Fender's 'student models' but was destined for the big time; seen slung over the shoulders of icons like David Byrne, John Fruisciante, Kurt Cobain, Todd Rundgren and Adrian Belew to name just a few! This new reissue's got great color and cosmetic options, as well as a heightened level of period correct detailing (body wood, logos, etc.). A real beauty!
