i wouldn't think so. while broncos might be nice basses i doubt they sell alot of them. plenty of room for some cool reissues. as always i could be wrong.

I owned a MIJ Mustang but couldn't get used to the narrow top-nut. Soundwise she didn't impress me either, on the whole the Squier Vista Musicmaster was much more to my liking, so I sold her off .............

Tried a Mustang back in the 70's but not for me (just had my copy EB2 at the time)

A long time ago I posted this sound clip of my wife's CIJ Mustang (long since sold) - might have even been the Dude Pit:

next to last (fragment) (http://hieronymous.us/music/next_to_last_fragment.mp3)

I liked the way it recorded - never got to use it live though.

If it is anything like the VM precision I just bought it'll be a winner.
