Fender Competition Mustang Electric Guitar Customer Review

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
i have a lot of guitars, and i buy a lot, but I will always be satisfied with this guitar
Sound
sounds good, but pickups do squeal a little bit- i routed the guitar and put a seymour duncan JB at the bridge
Features
no extra accessories came with it but i love every featureabout the guitar i like the vibrato tailpiece and having the toggle switches for the pickups to put the guitar in and out of phase I also like the short scale neck
Quality
It is made very well everything is perfect. I do keep a backup, but i dont need to aside from having one guitar tuned lower. Worst aspect is probably the selector switches, they sometimes(rarely) dont work well. It will last as long as i want it to as long as i take care of it.
Value
i thought it was a good price
Manufacturer Support
Ive never had to deal with them
The Wow Factor
It is beautiful- everything the chrome control plate, the chrome tailpiece, and the finish. I love the eay the dynamic vibrato works

Fender Competition Mustang Electric Guitar Customer Review

until it falls apart or I get sick of it!
Sound
First Guitar and a novice player but considering some of the horror stories i've read about it on the net it seems in all a pretty decent "beginners" guitar(?) Well made (in Japan) and decent output from the pick-ups (through my small peavey studio pro.) A wide variety of sounds but might not be suitable for some styles as probably can be said for most guitars. In phase out of phase, treblely or twangy, you can even get some decent "snarl" if you tweak vol pot and your amp.
Features
Two single coils with vol and tone pots and phase switches (2) along w/ floating vibrato that according to some comments on the web will knock your mustang out of tune in no time flat if you use it.
Quality
Seems excellent but only time will tell. First impressions of fit and finish are, to me, excellent. But I can't comment on the durability because i've only had it a short while.
Value
good
Manufacturer Support
not applicable since i have not had the need to contact support.
