Hello all. I have been looking to add a mustang to my collection. I found one I'd like to check out locally. I'm not very versed in these, so are there any pointers/telltale signs?

I have a few pics now, but am waiting for serial pics, etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Not enough pictures and not enough close pictures to say.

More answer if you post picture here.

How to post photo as read on Fender Forum

_________________________________________

First you need to upload your pics to the internet. From a great forum member ; Jmattis


Use a pic hosting site (imgur, imgbb, flickr or such - avoid photobucket) or some common web framework like e.g. facebook, googlephotos - whatever you're familiar with.

The important thing is that the web site provides you with a pic address - that's the one starting with 'http' and ending in '.jpg'.

Copy the pic address, and use the IMG-command (visible when you write a message) on the forum.

Preview your post so everything is OK.

In 1982, Fender didn't yet make Mustangs in Japan... 8)

But I agree with st52, a reliable ID'ing for what it really is, needs more, bigger and higher res pics.

Hey all. Thanks for your time. It took a while for this post to be approved, and since then I've received clearer images of the serial. It's not an 82. It's a CIJ 69 reissue made in 2004. still a great guitar that I ended up purchasing after playing.

It is very refreshing to have someone ask these questions before they lay their money down, I salute you sir.
