Overview

Crafted by experienced luthiers, the Traditional 60s Mustang is a reinterpretation of the original Mustang, which has long been a favorite among guitarists—from beginners to professionals—thanks to its compact size and short scale length. The influence of Nirvana’s famous Kurt Cobain attests to its popularity among leading musicians.

Traditional craftsmanship for a rich and dynamic sound

This guitar features a basswood body, a bolt-on maple neck, and a rosewood fingerboard, offering a rich acoustic foundation with thick, punchy lows, smooth mids, and crystal-clear highs.
