It's fussier than a jm/jag vibrato, and some MIJ mustang trems are pretty shit but, if you've got a good quality one (like a vintage unit) and it's set up properly they're fine.
This is a vintage one. The fact that he plays lighter strings than I would doesn't help, but ultimately I don't like it in the same way I dislike even the best set up Strat trems. I don't like the feel or the sound.
Like a strat trem, I find it's best if they're set to dive-only.

Photogenic mutangs come with a jazzmaster bridge from the factory https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=htt ... AdAAAAABAZ

I have one and I like it. It stays in tune, but doesn't sound as bright as my classic vibe jazzmaster

Isn't there an off-the-shelf cheapo Bilindastang from someone like Thomman or Gear4Music? Pretty sure I've seen it on here....
