    Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie has unveiled a new signature Fender Mustang guitar.

    Featuring a chambered ash body design for increased resonance and reduced weight and a one-piece 22-fret modern “C”-shaped maple neck with 9.5” radius fingerboard and medium jumbo frets, this guitar is a comfortable and versatile stage performer. Electronics include a set of custom, vintage-inspired Ben Gibbard Mustang pickups and a stage-ready 3-way rotary pickup selector switch. What appears to be a vintage-style Mustang bridge is actually an innovative modified hardtail setup, providing rock-solid stability, intonation and sustain.

    That’s absolutely gorgeous.

    I absolutely love the Fender artist series. My JA-90 is something I would run into our burning house to save.
