I have for sale an all original vintage 1974 Mustang guitar. It has a cool black finish (which I have been told is a rare color), black pickguard and a rosewood board. It is a lightweight at 6.5 lbs on my bathroom scale. The only two minuses...I had to add a strap button to the top horn and I'm afraid the tremelo bar is MIA.
The serial number is 598661 and the pots are 1377451 and 1377438 respectively.
I bought it (along with a '74 Jazz) from a local high school. Apparently they were cleaning out a storeroom and found this Mustang (along with the Jazz) behind some tables. They are not sure how long they have been in this storeroom, but they are thinking at least 5 years....and probably more. They believe both were purchased new by the school district in the mid '70's.
The Mustang has seen it's use and has a couple of chips here and there, but with the exception of the one strap button, it is all original and comes with it's original silver case (with the name of he high school painted in small letters on the side...of course). The picture shows the case missing the strap that holds the neck in place, but I have had that fixed. Otherwise the case is in good shape and all latches work.
I had the guitar techs at Dave's Guitar Shop here in La Crosse, WI go through it and get it ready to go, so it is all set up and ready to rock (and roll).
