  • I don’t I’m afraid, but I just wanted to mention the Squier Bullet Mustang that I just bought my son to start learning on cost a little over a ton and not only is it entirely functional and easy to play, it’s even pretty well set up. Very good for the money.

  • Worth being aware that the Bullet version has a 12" neck radius and big frets - may not satisfy those wanting a traditional Mustang experience.

  • Yeah, absolutely agree, hardtail and humbuckers as well. The kid wants to rock so it suits us!

    The laurel fingerboard is quite “grainy” when bending notes (I imagine it’ll get smoother with enough use) but apart from that it plays just fine.
