NBD: Short, Mexican, and beautiful.

Beautiful indeed, congrats! Enjoy it. I really like the new colours that the MIM PJ Mustangs come in - especially this one with the maple board.

 

Yep, they're very nice. My Mustang LE P/J is one of the best sounding basses I've ever had.

 

Congrats on the new shorty!

I have TWO of those, however, they are both pastels. Love 'em. The sonic blue one has the darkest pau ferro I've ever seen too.

 

Not a big fan of the Mustang body shape but the pastel colours are fantastic, as is that sienna burst! Dang.

 

Nice bass! Enjoy!

 

That is a beauty indeed!

 

dang, that looks nice! Love the color combo. I didn’t know they had this model in sunburst/maple

 

Very nice. I agree with you completely. The Mustangs have always interested me, but the colors and lack of a Maple fretboard option have always kept me from taking the plunge. This one is exactly what I have been waiting for.

 

Little lupe?

 

Isn’t it amazing how much better our lives quickly become once we abandon our preconceived notions about things and actually go and try them out for ourselves?

“Hands on” is everything. Play it well!

 

As soon as I read your title I thought “Mustang”, and when I saw P/J I knew for sure. If you enjoy yours as much as I’ve enjoyed mine you’re going to have a really good time!

I’d love to put some flats on mine, but it has the best roundwound tone of any in my stable with the stock strings so I haven’t changed them. Maybe I need two...

 

Needs tort.

 

I was recently saved from a similar fate. I went to the big city for a medical procedure. I arrived on Wednesday with my stuff scheduled for Friday. When i got to town i stopped by GC for no other reason than to look at more than the three basses for sale in the little shop in my newly adopted home town. Among the slew of basses was an MIM PJ Mustang. I picked it up and played it for a minute and decided if i was still among the living come Saturday i would go get it, ugly green scratch plate and all. I (obviously) got out of the hospital alive but when i returned to GC someone had already beat me to the punch.

 

As soon as I read it, I thought

That IS a beautiful mustang, though.

 

Nice! Join the Mustang Club thread. Warning: you’ll soon be GASing for a JMJ to run with your new beauty.

 

Maple+black+burst=where it’s at! Congratulations.

 

That sienna maple combo is fantastic!

 

Don't be taking about me like that— oh nevermind, you talking about a bass

 

Pearl green with mint PG and maple FB. And it came with free lessons!
