Re: Squier 2020 line
Honestly, neither the Fender pic nor the pic from that Reverb listing look like lake placid blue to me. I'm pretty confident it's some combination of the lighting or backgrounds used.

I would imagine it might be the same shade as the already in production squier 60s classic vibe strat. Plenty of better images of that model.

Re: Squier 2020 line
Personally I dig the darker blue and with a white pickguard. Oh yeah.NICQ wrote: ↑Thu Jun 11, 2020 3:58 amThat Toronado Green/blue colour is confusing me a bit - how can Fender's pictures be so off?
or maybe the pics from that reverb ad have some weird filter? I don't know![]()
anyways - I still made some mock ups with different pickguards :
Very hard decision between those and black/tort ... if the colour really has that blue teint and not green

Re: Squier 2020 line
HA! In fact, I also got one of those red sparkle Teles and swapped the neck (prefer maple). And also got a Bullet Mustang in gray. Before that, I'd bought the Jarman Musguar.DavidG wrote: ↑Thu Jun 11, 2020 2:05 amI got a red sparkle bullet tele last year, and in the last few weeks I got one of those competition orange bullet mustangs. They both needed minimal tweaking to play nicely, and more importantly they look amazing, ha!
I have no hesitations buying squiers these days, and have high hope's for the deluxe tele. Looking forward to seeing people picking up their paranormal models!
I was so NOT buying new guitars but Squier made me do it!
And it hasn't come to an end, either...

i love delay SO much ...that i procrastinate all the time.

Re: Squier 2020 line
^ yeah after getting a classic vibe tele in 2012, i realised that anything above that price range is just diminishing returns and slight personal preferences.
im not going to try get every cool squier like i used to before, but just the things id like to have the most. It is cool to look at stuff thats available online and thinking of maybe buying it ngl. smart thing of fender to keep it fsr mostly and not overproduce everything.
I am still wondering about the surf green cv jazzmaster with the regular tort guard that vistavision and i discovered through the fmicassets images. that one hasnt popped up anywhere yet.

One is photographed against black, the other against white. Blue will look different, any colour would.NICQ wrote: ↑Thu Jun 11, 2020 3:58 amThat Toronado Green/blue colour is confusing me a bit - how can Fender's pictures be so off?

Unless lefties are available Shane won't be reviewing. Check out his brother Wayne's channel.

My Aussie humour. Shane is a stereotype bogan name. So is Wayne. If bogan parents had twin boys the choice of names would be a no brain(s)er!

New pic showed up on reverb :

https://reverb.com/item/34138541-squier ... blue-04801
Looks more like Lake Placid Blue und resembles the color of the official Fender pic

Re: Squier 2020 line
Toronado on ebay


https://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-Squi ... SwEXJe4qXD
I know I am OCD with colors and LPB is a weird color with shades of green and blue depending on the lighting etc
Still I want to know that the guitar looks like before ordering one
