Methinks it would be cooler if they could switch guards on these two, there's enough busy contrast going on as it is.

That's kinda cool I think? I don't really know if I like that or not.

I expect them to be totally neck heavy. Not sure what the appeal is here. They would sell Squier Mustang basses like hotcakes.

Aw shit, forgot about that. Maybe if any store locally would actually carry this awesome stuff I would actually know it exists (to date, I have not seen a single Squier Mascis, Mustang/Jazzy/Jaguar, or Mustang bass.)

Either way I'm not crazy about the jumbo bass teles.

They definitely do look neck heavy as hell. Didn't Leo add the upper horn instead of making it just like a tele specifically because of neck balance? I don't understand fender... this and that reverse jag bass... they keep putting out neck heavy basses for some reason.

I literally like Squier better than Fender anymore. They put out so much cool shit that it's ridiculous. I dig 'em.

This thing with a p-bass pickup in the middle would be the perfect bass. Like there would be no reason to make any other basses if they did that.

I didn't see that it was a 32" scale... perhaps that would help keep it from being neck heavy?
