If you were in the market for a pristine vintage Fender Mustang, keep looking! Featuring 60 years of wear and tear, this Mustang shows all the hallmarks of a well used, heavily gigged, players guitar.

Set-up with 11-49 Strings, the pro-refret makes this guitar a dream to play. With two U.K. made Reissue Mustang pickups and a new wiring assembly, barring a couple of switches and jack socket, you'll be well looked after in the tone department. Everything works well, stays in tune and actually feels nice.

Weight: 7.74lbs

  • 1 small stable crack in the fretboard between the 1st fret and nut
  • 1 small stable crack in the body from the strap button
  • 1 small stable crack in body seam
  • Heavy lacquer checking throughout along with chips, scratched and dents in the finish

About

Typically dispatched the same day, on a 24hour service to the UK Mainland. While overseas rates are listed, you may wish to get in touch to discuss import duty, taxes, VAT and handling times.

Service
Love, care and attention goes into every piece of equipment listed and sold. When purchasing a guitar from me, you will expect a clean, well set-up and ready to use instrument. All parts will be examined and checked for authenticity and will be working correctly, unless otherwise stated. If you have any queries, don't hesitate to get in touch.

About Us

About Us

Welcome to Cody’s Guitars, where passion, craftsmanship, and decades of musical experience come together. Founded in 2017, our shop is built on nearly 20 years in the musical retail industry, and a lifelong love for guitars and the people who play them.

Our Story

Cody’s Guitars began with a simple mission: to create a space where musicians of all levels feel supported, inspired, and genuinely taken care of. After spending almost two decades working hands-on in the industry, we wanted to build something that focused on quality, honesty, and real musical connection. What started as a small idea quickly grew into a trusted local hub for players seeking gear, guidance, and a friendly place to talk shop.

What We Do

We specialise in guitars, pedals, and amplifiers, offering a curated range chosen for tone, reliability, and feel. Whether you’re hunting for your first guitar, upgrading your rig, or chasing that one perfect sound, we’re here to help you find the right match.

Alongside retail, we also provide guitar lessons, tailored for beginners, seasoned players, and everyone in between. Our teaching approach is patient, practical, and focused on helping you grow at your own pace.

Our Values

  • High Standards: From the gear we sell to the services we offer, quality is non-negotiable.
