Indeed. Ever since I've been following Rob's channels, I've built up my 2nd hand budget guitars company, my own home in the country , and assembled a discarded, but now roadworthy VW camper. Just roll up your sleeves lad , the world can be yours.🐱
What a coincidence. I also recently scored a nice Bullet Mustang in lake placid blue! Mine came with Squier Atomic humbuckers and some locking tuners though!
Thanks! This video was the ammunition I needed to know I could do it myself. It’s been sitting at a guitar tech’s shop for 8 months now. I’m just gonna do it my self. I’m sick of waiting on people. He thinks it can’t be done. This video proves it can. Thank you! 🙏🏻
That’s a cool project indeed. I also worked on this project, and yesterday I changed the bridge from a standard Mustang to a Tune-o-matic (because it's a Squier Bullet Strat, and the string spacing is 52mm instead of the standard 55mm for Mustang bridges). However, I'm having issues with the action. I already set it at a 1.5-degree angle with a neck shim, but it's still a bit high. I don't know what to do 😢
Awesome work mate. Love the headstock and overall fit. Hotrails just bite right to me. Good job with the routing and drilling those post holes. Very thin these bullet bodies.
Thanks bro, the headstock came out pretty close considering it was a old can of paint I had in my stash. That SD hotrail kick nice, even through a line 6 amp 🤣 Yeah you got to measure twice cut once with them bullets, not a lot of meat on the bone.
Man Rob, that looked like a fun project. I like your roll with it attitude. Why spend money on trying to be perfect when you have damn close parts already. Kurt would have done the same thing as you did. Very cool!!!
Dope! I tried following a certain someone’s RUclips page that is all about offset set ups but had so much trouble. Followed your set up and happy days man!
Most RUclipsrs have no real experience, just faux wannabes. I've been playing 30 years and been in bands most of that, plus I've bought and sold 1000s of guitars 😂
Hi, i really like you’re job but I have to ask … Does that hot rail match that stock neck pickup or is it much of a difference on output between those two ? I just ordered Squier classic vibe 60’ competition mustang in capri orange and I’m looking for what to do first with that guitar if you have any suggestion please leave a comment a really appreciate it :) something like first things to do with it or any tweaks to stay in tune or what you will do first out of the box … Thank you very much and greetings from Slovakia
So does that bridge match the 12 inch radius of the bullet mustang neck or do you have to adjust each saddle individually? I’m looking to do similar mod and I’m not too sure about that part of it. Great job!
How would you remove a bridge insert post..if its in crooked and leans..? Ive got an old guitar with this problem i want to fix my old guitar back up again..
cool man that reviews guitars: ima make a mustang like kurt cobains, me: ooohh yyeeaasss *Gets to the sound demo* ooohhh yyyyyeeeeeeeaaaa *doesn't play teen spirit* me: :(
cudos to him for not playing teen spirit, personally, I dont like putting deodorant on my guitars, and because of this video, I'm gonna make a mustang based off of kurt's roseland mustang.
@@theguitarmanifesto hahha how old are you :)? I'm 34 and I used to play in punk bands. but meanwhile i just want to test guitars and write riffs and chord sequences etc for myself :D
You vids inspire me to make do with what I have and Make my own grunge guitars
That's all you need dude! Don't let the bigger channels with salesman tell you otherwise 💯🎸

Your videos inspired me to make a guitar like Kurt Cobain, and Nirvana is my teenage music until now Iam 45
Glad I inspired you dude 🎸💯 thank you
Im making my own diy mustang i just finished making the body and im painting it in 2 hours wish me luck

Thank you! 🙏🏻
Definitely do it yourself!
This is badass. I love the internet, finding another Fender Mustang enthusiast and just enjoying the vibe. We really can have nice things.
Got to love a Stang 👌
Awesome 😎👍
We normally watch everything on Vicki's RUclips on the TV... Just wanted to say well done man! We've learnt sooo much from you... 🙌🖤⚡⚡⚡
Glad you guys are enjoying the videos, you guys are awesome 🎸😎💯🤘
I think it's a cool looking guitar. Love the colour, mint green guard and matching headstock.. 🎸🎸
She's a grunge machine 🎸🤘
"It's the Grunge way" LOOVE it! Great work man.
Heck yeah 🎸🤘
That's one beastly guitar! My HH Bullet Mustang is Olympic White with a brown tort guard and a set of Gotoh Trad locking tuners. The rest is stock. 🤘✌
Sick guitars 🎸😎
That’s a cool project indeed.

Hey where did you get the competition stripe?
I've seen them on eBay in the past
Amazing build! You got the tone spot on!!
Thanks dude 😎🤘
So does that bridge match the 12 inch radius of the bullet mustang neck or do you have to adjust each saddle individually? I’m looking to do similar mod and I’m not too sure about that part of it. Great job!
This neck is a 9.5" radius, just using a standard flat tunomatic bridge, it's the grunge way 🤣
Love ur shit dude amazing
Cheers 🤣
HI Rob, can u recommend a good fret cleaning product and where to buy it. Tia
How would you remove a bridge insert post..if its in crooked and leans..? Ive got an old guitar with this problem i want to fix my old guitar back up again..
a good set of grips and pull it out, re drill the hole
Did you have to lift the neck it gets really high with that bridge
A credit card usually gets the height I want.
What amp do u use? It sounds great
Line 6 Spider IV 15 watt amp
