NEW Squier Offsets 2017

[MKR]

anybody that has some of these: take some pics! home taken pics always show more how the guitars actually look than the stock store ones.

I gotta say for a budget friendly guitar, the black mustang looks pretty awesome. Like i would get that for my kid if they wanted it.

Can anyone confirm that the red deluxe JM really IS a rebranded JMJM, as in EXACT same specs?

I love my Mascis, having it in red with tort guard, and white covers etc, would be even better!

At NAMM, I overheard a Fender rep tell a store owner it was a JM Jazzmaster without the JM name. It most definitely looked like it too. I didn't see a price.

I did a little work on my new Bullet Mustang today. Now I will build another pickguard loaded with single coils using a nicer tortie pg. The one I used today was a $7.50 cheapie. These are a lot of fun.

so beautiful!!!!
we need more reviews about the pickups, tuning machines, the bridge, nut etc
btw in all the pics from the stores the headstock looks paler.
i have a beautiful daphne blue bullet strat but the headstock is almost white.

This Bullet Series Mustang also had the pale white maple neck and headstock when it was purchased.
It now has a kiwi tinted neck, new tuners, pickguard and string trees.
The stock tuners were fine and held tune really well. The bridge is a top loader hardtail very similar to the Squier '51s from 2005. The pickups sound really good to me, good enough that I will keep them in a guitar and not in a drawer which is what I expected. The Basswood body has a swimming pool route making it a great modding platform.

these are so cool if they end up in aus for a decent price i'll definitely buy it as a modding project.

the jazzmaster has a pool rout does the stang?

[rhythmjones]

That looks really nice!

The bullet Mustang is only $199 CAD. That takes it from being fugly to being a good bunch of parts/modding platform.

The red Jazzmaster with the gold guard is $609 CAD.

I see.

I've seen a few of the Mascis Squiers find their way into the hands of people who wouldn't be into Dinosaur Jr, so I could see a rebranding of them being a smart move. The only indication it's a signature is the squiggle on the back anyway. If anything, the JMJM and now these are a Squier version of the Classic Players.

As I say, that being the case, add a tort guard (The gold suited the white version more than it does CAR), and I could be VERY happy with these!

just noticed the affinity jazzmasters are made out of alder according to fenders site, surprised they usually use basswood dont they?

Yeah, the black Bullet Mustang has definitely become more appealing now - especially since I found out that it's 24" scale. Is the bridge the string-through the body kind? If not, you could easily make a Belinda-stang.

Yes! I guess that means you could put a standard Mustang trem on it, too, then.

With the appropriate skills one could. I wouldn't recommend it. I think you'd be better off just buying a Squier VM Mustang.

Here's a Mustang body -
