3. 2 humbuckers
4. kahler tremelo
5. bill edwards clamp nut
6. sprzel tuners.....
7. VVT cotrol config....
8. coil tapping

Apart from looking slightly similar to a Mustang, I don't think it would be much of a Mustang.

It wouldn't be a bad thing. The short scale on Mustangs always bothered me. Cobain put a humbucker in his, so why not.

Try using a heaving string gauge. My Mustang plays every bit as well as any other guitar I own. I generally run 10's on my Strat and LP's - but I use 11's on my Mustang and Jaguar. The scale difference between a LP and a Strat is the same as the difference between a Mustang and a LP.

I love my Mustang, though. She's a '65 and gets plenty of gig action.
