anyone else notice that there is only one mustang model in the whole fender catalog (and with a pretty high retail price)? don't you guys think it's time for a new mustang model? what would you guys like a mustang to have if there ever was a new mustang model?... i already gave my idea in the other guitars forum (speaking of which check out my topic some of you might agree with my idea if you do please participate )

does that mean you're in on the movement?

Isn't it ironic that what was once the low budget"student"guitar of Fender's instruments is now out of reach for most student players?I think that they should make a lower priced MIM model in the spirit that the Mustang was first made-as a starting point for beginners.

my thoughts exactly check out my link i think you might agree with what i'm working on lol

I love the short scale Fender's like the Mustang. But $900 for an import model Mustang is ridiculous !!! Some "student model" eh? LOL how many parents or first timers to guitar are gonna drop almost a grand for an axe? There's nothing that should make them so expensive....not more so than a Strat or Tele. The price of this new import model is sneaking up in to the territory of a REAL vintage Mustang guitar I agree, a Blacktop Mustang would be nice, just so there is a more reasonably price mustang available.

I definetly agree. +1000
