Wow. It looks like whoever I talked to last year kept his promises. Got them all almost! Sweet! Very cool line up.

Cyclone/Toronado: Reminds me of high school. Always thought they were cool, glad they’re back.
King Buzzo: I love when people come up to me and say “Your guitar sound was better on Stoner Witch, when you used a Les Paul. “...I used a Fender Mustang reissue on that, dumbass!

I just saw these pop up somewhere else, they're all very cool. The Super-Sonic seems especially interesting with the altered neck shape and more narrow nut, I'm curious when they'll be out so I can see how it plays and if those specs make a big difference in practice.

Squier Jag-stang would be nice.
+1 on the Squier Jag-stang.

OP: Do you remember if you heard anything about Jag-stangs?
Unlikely that Fender would release a Squier Jag-Stang until after the new generation of Fender Jag-Stang IIs have been out for quite a while. What's more, the Jag-Stang II may never happen -- but it's also a possibility.

Jag-stang II?

Are you talking about the Jarman "Mus-uar", or is there something else that I've missed completely?

Oh my god, I want them all.

This is seriously the best new Squier offset lineup in ages.

The pink Cyclone ii had me in the first half, not gonna lie. But the Strat pickups are a real bummer and kills the aesthetic of the original guitar.

Anyone who recently paid over sticker price for one of the original IIs might feel less bad about doing that at least :D

I actually took a while to notice they were strat pups! To me the aesthetics remain about the same.

Me too, I did like that the Jag pups looked unique on the original but the upside is that there are lots more mod options this way. There's never a bad time to throw lipsticks in a guitar but I think this would be an especially good one and the strat sizing means there are plenty of choices out there.

Um, do you think there will be a third run of the Jag-Stang from Fender, MIJ or otherwise? Cuz I'm thinking probably not.
I'm sure some Fender dealer in '64 looked at the new Duo-Sonic II and thought, "That's not a Duo-Sonic. That's a Mustang".

Fender is looking into doing it. Everyone admits the original Jag-Stang released to the public was an absolute mess. But right now, the "proper" version of the Jag-Stang is just in the concept phase.
