The Antiquity II Mustang Myth set delivers the articulate, woody character of vintage Mustang pickups with refined clarity and sustain for tracking and mixing sessions. These pickups are engineered for engineers and producers seeking authentic offset guitar tones—ideal for capturing classic Mustang character in the studio or modernizing an existing instrument with vintage-spec components.
