Born in Corona, California, the 24”-scale American Performer Mustang delivers the exceptional tone and feel you expect from an authentic Fender, along with a unique feel and new player-oriented features that make it even more inspiring to play. Yosemite pickups are specifically voiced for each instrument and position to create sonically versatile and musically useful sounds. Jumbo frets make it easier to achieve wide, expressive bends that add your personal touch to your music. Combining vintage style with a modern 18:1 gear ratio, the ClassicGear tuning machines have smooth action and make it easier to fine-tune your instrument. The vintage-style tremolo bridge features six grooved saddles for authentic Fender design and modern performance. Featuring a “Modern C”-shaped profile that works well with almost any playing style, the neck also hosts a satin finish on the back, giving it a smooth, fast playing feel.
