Pat talks about his 2nd guitar here: How long did you play the ES-140? I didn’t have it very long when my family took a plane to Minocqua, Wisconsin, to see my grandparents, on Ozark Airlines. I checked my guitar, and when we got to Minocqua, I opened the case to find shards. It was heartbreaking for me. Ozark Airlines said, “How much is that guitar worth?” And my dad, knowing that I paid $60 for it, said, “It’s worth $100.” (laughs) So they gave me 100 bucks and I went to a music store and bought a Fender Mustang. No idea why. It didn’t work for me at all.

1:30 in the video gives the first clear shot featuring Blixa with the Mustang. The blue Mustang seems to be Blixa's instrument of choice and has remained so for all of his Bad Seeds career. Blixa's even less talkative about gear than Rowland was, so there doesn't seem to be any information about regarding specifics, but it's probably a fairly safe bet that Blixa's used the same Mustang as his main since he got it, since it's always a Sonic Blue with a white pickguard, and it seems improbable that Blixa's ideology would allow him multiple identical instruments.

In this studio image, Michael's Mustang can be seen in the foreground, leaning against the edge of his Rhodes' stand.

PUNK GLOBE: Are you still primarily playing Fender Jaguar guitars? Eric Erlandson: I play anything and everything. The days of vintage guitar snobbery are over. Boring. Leave it for the lawyers, brokers, and collectors. My favorite is my baby blue 60s Fender Mustang, because it has so much soul. I was happy to see the guitar player in Savages using one. But, really, sound and magic come from the person playing, not the quality of the wood or instrument. "The days of vintage guitar snobbery are over. Boring. Leave it for the lawyers, brokers, and collectors."

"That’s correct. I was having the guitar refretted by my friend Maureen Pandos [of MDP Bassworks in Portland], and when she was setting it up she said, “Do you still want to just do five strings?” I said, “Yeah,” and she said, “Do you want to commit to it? If so, I can make you a 5-string nut and then you’ll be able to use more of the fretboard.” I said, “Fuck it.” So there it is. It is nicer with the 5-string nut. Before, there was a 1/4" of the neck that wasn’t getting utilized—now the strings are nice and equally spread out." He actually plays 2 5-stringed Fender Mustangs, one from 1964 and one from 1965.
