Depends what the vintage Mustangs he played were like.

Hi, 'Stang's are lovely guitars yes, but I don't see how they are offsets, I eman the body looks like a smaller strat to me? Am I blind or is there a different reason?

Mustangs are definitely offsets.   What is "offset" is the waist of the guitar.

I crossed the waistlines of a $tratocaster and a Mustang on photoshop to show you how a Mustang is an offset, as opposed to the $trat's traditionnal waist:

Ah, I see, thanks, I thought it was the butt of the guitar that sticks out on jag's and jazzes

"Offset Butt" guitars.

Haha, that would be funny
We would be posting on the offset butt forums

I guess that would make my Maverick an "Offset Cut Butt" guitar.

That would make a great little outrigger decal for the ball-end of the headstock....
