Genuine Fender Kurt Cobain Mustang Signature Guitar, in the ultra-rare Lake Placid Blue with Competition Stripes (as per the model Kurt played on the classic “Smells Like Teen Spirit” music video). Very nice condition, a few very minor scrapes and a small ding on the stripe as can be seen in the pictures – but it’s in an overall lovely condition, and looks absolutely stunning. Will be supplied with new genuine Fender quality padded gig bag. This is the Kurt signature model to own! More details and information on this collectible guitar are listed below. Kurt Cobain liked Mustangs a lot. For one, he preferred offbeat guitars that didn’t cost zillions of dollars, and the Mustang certainly fit those two criteria. Also, being somewhat physically diminutive himself, he liked to perform live with slightly more diminutive guitars, like Fender Mustangs and Jaguars, which better fit his hands and his reach. See for yourself - go back and watch the famous 1991 video for “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” and there he is and there it is slung over his shoulder. Or think back to when you saw them on the ’93-’94 In Utero tour, when he seldom went onstage with anything but a Mustang. Quite often and especially later on, Mustangs were a big part of what Kurt Cobain was all about, musically. Inspired by his arsenal of guitars, the Fender Kurt Cobain Mustang takes you back there, with highly distinctive features including an angled single-coil Mustang neck pickup and ferocious Seymour Duncan® JB humbucking bridge pickup mounted directly to the body, dual on-off/phase in-out switches for each pickup, a polyester-finished alder body and an Adjusto-Matic™ bridge with dynamic vibrato tailpiece. Other features include the classic 24” Mustang scale length, C-shaped maple neck with urethane finish, 7.25” - radius rosewood fingerboard with 22 vintage-style frets and vintage-style ivory dot inlays, four-ply pickguard (Aged White Pearl on This Dark Lake Placid Blue with stripe model) master volume and tone controls, vintage-style tuners, and chrome hardware. The Kurt Cobain Mustang is the second Fender signature model to honour the late Nirvana founder, songwriter, guitarist and vocalist as the music world marked the 20th anniversary of landmark 1991 album "Nevermind"
