the leads and the idea of cunife pickups are pretty cool. and the mustangs have 1 pretty color each. im sure squier will release the actual exciting stuff

edit: you know what, that jim adkins tele looks nice in that color too

This is visually stunning:

(please Fender, more guitars in this colour!)


New colour for Tony Franklin fretless looks terrific:

CuNiFe back in production, absolutely cool!

Really liking the Maverick, and very curious about its pickups. Also wonder which pickups are on the pickguard-less three-pickup Jazzmaster, looks Firebird'ish.

I can also appreciate the looks of the Jazzmaster-shaped Stratocaster. Can't imagine what I could personally ever even do with it, but it looks great.

Obviously, the best look to go with the camo is the old 'heavily medicated and in out-patient care' pose. He looks like a friend of Raoul Moat - all he needs is a carrier bag full of Kestrel Super.

The maverick headstock is way too long. I find this annoying.
The original Maverick's headstocks were chopped down shorter.

Is this real or Photoshop? I can't work out how I feel about it.

It's not as weird as taking a Jazzmaster body (the best looking thing in the universe) off a Jazzmaster and then slapping on a Strat body (the Shrek's face of guitar design).

I knew it about the Dorado, the routes on that workshop body looked just right for 'Trons and the only other offset guitar with a Spanish name Fender made prior to this the Boracha had filtertrons as well.

They should release a relic version, so much more rocknroll!

I am down for the black JMJ Mustang bass. Just wish it wasn't reliced.

WHY didn't they use the split pickups for the Maverick? Jesus fucking christ, Fender. It must cause them physical pain to faithfully reissue one of their old guitars

edit: and it's $2500?! I hope Squier is putting one out, that is ridiculous. That said, I am definitely buying a Lead II, the black on black is sexy as hell
