Fender Mustang 1965 White Slab Body Signed by Char Round RWFB w ShowCase & OHC "Owned&Played by Char"

Description

Charismatic guitarist Char has created a sensation in the Japanese rock world and continues to be active at the forefront of the scene. His super play continues to influence many great guitarists. These days, the image of the burgundy Strat made in 1959 is strong, but the Mustang, which has been used since its debut, is a model that was released by Fender as a student model, but it suddenly became popular and attracts attention because Mr. Char has been using it regularly. It has become a trademark model for Mr. Char himself, and has an alias of Mr.Mustang.

Speaking of the iconic Mustang that Mr. Char has loved since his debut, many people probably think of the 1965 or 1967 white slab body, round rose, and tortoiseshell guard Mustang. In fact, Char himself says that he couldn't have thought of the voicing for SMOKY's Dm9, which is his signature song, if it wasn't for the Mustang model, so it has become an indispensable part for him as well.

This time we would like to introduce you to a 1965 Mustang with a white rose slab body that Char has been using for many years for live shows and recordings.

As for how it was acquired, an old friend of Mr. Char inherited it directly from Mr. Char, and after selling it to a musical instrument store, it was displayed as a not-for-sale item, and then the previous owner, who was a close friend of him, specially purchased it. That's what I was allowed to do. For this reason, a date and signature handwritten by Mr. Char will be placed on the body, and to support this, a photo of the watch being signed and a photo of Mr. Char actually holding it will be included. Mr. Char himself owns several Mustangs, but this one seems to have been used very frequently, and the front pickup was replaced with a vintage gray bobbin from a different model year, and the rear pickup was rewound. There are many replacement parts to continue playing. This time, due to the circumstances of the previous owner, in addition to this machine, we have been asked to sell six actual machines that have been used by famous artists, leading to this sale.

In addition, the former artist guitar collector valued the fact that it was the same as he had used it, and since he acquired it, it has been carefully stored completely unused.

Regarding this SpecialArtistCollection, everything is kept as much as possible as the artist loved it.
No sound checks or internal checks have been performed, and not a single screw has been removed since the previous owner acquired it. Some items may even be the same as they were actually used by the individual. I may be wrong as a musical instrument store, but this collection is sold with an emphasis on collection rather than performance. Of course, if you have any requests after purchase, we will be happy to assist you with setup and internal confirmation free of charge.

The information that can be seen from the exterior is that the paintwork is over half a century old, 58 years old, and the damage on various parts that makes you feel that it has been used in battles is proof that it has been with Mr. Char. Therefore, from the fans' point of view, it will not be seen as a negative part, but rather as a piece of history that is deeply moving. The aging itself is relatively mild, and there is almost no lifting due to the shrinkage of the pickguard. The previous owner was informed at the time of purchase that the neck date is an 8JUN65B, the pot date is a 1965 Date 2, the front pickup is a 1979 gray bobbin, the rear pickup is a rewound, the fret nut is original, but the fret There are some dents here and there due to wear and tear. The body material is a slab of poplar before transitioning to the contour specification.The body and neck are maple with a rounded rosewood fingerboard.The wood has a fairly undulating grain and is transitional, so there is a possibility of Jacaranda, bright red tortoiseshell. The guard is compatible with the 1965 serial number L94,000 series, and the tuner is a final Kluson tuner. The case comes with a custom-made showcase and original hard case for viewing purposes. Showcases are usually difficult to ship, so please contact us separately for mail order.

The long-awaited Special Artist Collection by fans. We have gathered together collectible items that will last a lifetime and are hard to find no matter how many years you search on the world market. The Mustang that Mr. Char has loved here is not just something he owned, but a special one that was actually played by Mr. Char during live performances and recordings. The charismatic name in the guitar world is not just for show, and the Fender Custom MasterBuilder Series Char59 Straocaster, which was released in 2018, was limited to 20 pieces but was sold out in advance at a new price of 1.5 million yen + tax. On the used market, it sells for around 2 million yen. In addition, all of Char's favorite models, including the Mustang, MasterGrade Stratocaster, and Guitars R UsStrato, continue to rise in price. Regarding this book, it is the same as the person himself.
Rather, it is the ultimate collectible item that is irresistible to fans who have actually used it. If this were his favorite 59 Strat, Zemaitis, 68 Gold Top, etc., it would definitely be over 4 digits, but this is just a Mustang model and it is not his favorite machine that he mainly used. Even considering the premium value, it is still within the price range, so we expect it to sell quickly despite the high price. I'm sure there are many people who started playing the guitar because of Char's admiration, and fans who find Char's sound to be the essence of their youth. This is your first and last big chance that will never come again, so if you are interested, please let us know.
