As with all Fender's, you can't go nuts on the whammy bar because it isnt a locking trem. They go out of tune fairly fast if you use the whammy like mad. Other than that though, they are fine.POSTED: 10/22/2007 - 03:25 pm / quote |

It's really quite simple, when the slider switch for a pickup is in the middle position, the pickup is off, when it's in the forward position (towards the neck) it's on, and when it's back (towards the bridge) it's out of phase. With all 3 of those options for each pickup, it gives the guitar some pretty serious range as far as tone options go. I love my Mustang, one of the finest guitars I've played.
As for the vibrato system, it's there for just that, vibrato, not crazy whammy antics. If you stick to subtle use, then I've found my Mustang holds tune extremely well, better than my strat even. Only downside is that the tremolo arm itself doesn't lock into the bridge in anyway, it just sits in the hole ready to fall out and get lost at any moment.POSTED: 01/11/2008 - 11:12 pm / quote |
