Squier offer an alternative Sonic Mustang model with two humbuckers instead of single coils - ideal for the guitarist who wants a thicker, hard-hitting tone.
Reliable Performance
The 6-saddle hardtail bridge featured on the Sonic Mustang ensures consistent intonation and tuning stability, allowing you to focus on your playing. Saddle height and truss rod wrenches are included with the guitar so you can tailor the action or adjust the intonation right away. A synthetic bone nut further enhances sustain and string stability.
Sealed-gear tuning machines provide smooth, accurate tuning adjustments, while the eye-catching chrome-plated hardware adds a stylish element to the guitar’s aesthetic.
Quality Tonewoods
The Sonic Mustang’s poplar body provides a balanced, resonant tone whilst the maple neck, complete with a smooth satin urethane back finish, complements the guitar’s tonal character by adding sustain and brightness.
