Fender is back again with their coveted Vintera series to deliver another round of vintage-spec models designed to elicit perfect throwback vibes. This time, with the Vintera III collection, Fender has focused on specific eras to convey their iconic brand history while offering the player an array of accurate aesthetics, sounds, and feels. Here, with the mid '60s Mustang in Olympic White, Fender has created an electric guitar that exudes throwback goodness, an homage to a time where offsets were king and simplistic but impressive tones dominated the sonic landscape. When modernity grows stale, this Mustang delivers those "good 'ol days" of vintage perfection.

This mid '60s Mustang begins with a solid alder body to create the iconic offset silhouette. Offering a balanced tone with enhanced resonance and clarity, presented in a sleek Olympic White gloss finish and accented by its 4-ply tortoiseshell pickguard and nickel/chrome hardware, this Mustang supplies vintage qualities in every inch of the guitar—tonally and aesthetically. Attached to the body is a maple neck with a gloss urethane finish presented in a mid '60s "C" profile, a smooth and homey unit that starts slim at the nut and widens slightly towards the twelfth fret. Connected to the neck is a beautiful piece of rosewood to form the fingerboard, a consistent, durable wood that offers additional warmth to the already solid tone. Affixed with 22 vintage tall frets across the 24" scale length and lined with clay dot inlays and white dot side markers, this Mustang ensures precision wherever and whenever this instrument is deemed playable.

What says "offset glory" more than a floating tremolo system? Designed for articulate pitch modulation, the vintage-style Mustang floating tremolo built into the tailpiece is easy to control, sounds natural, and ensures stable tuning no matter how far the pitch strays. Warble and dip for classic surf tones, dive and reconcile full phrases for shoegaze hypnotics, or apply the effect to any modulated necessity. To guarantee intonation and tuning stability, Fender has equipped their vintage-style tuners, offered with vintage-spec white buttons. These tuners are fitting for the throwback thesis and are easy to use for everyday adjustments and routine maintenance.

Projecting the iconic offset sound are two vintage-style mid '60s single-coil Mustang pickups found in the neck and bridge position, the perfect choice for producing clean, yet biting sounds with a skew towards the high-end, opening up to bright tones for cutting leads and dominant chords that fit all rock genres. These pickups are controlled by two on/off switches found right above the pickups, one for each of the positions that, easily enough, activates or disengages the pickup. Dialed in by master volume and master tone knobs for easy control, the Mustang proves that killer tones come in simplistic packages.

Whether you're on the fence about offsets or debating another addition to the growing collection, the Fender Vintera III Mid '60s Mustang Electric Guitar in Olympic White is sure to please any vintage enthusiast.
