Thought about it, but I'm pretty happy with this. It's a super angry pup and was very very cheap. Sounds good split too.
Maybe if I ever develop any actual skill and appreciation of tonez I'll put a WRHB in there. ;)

That neck pup is great, Lace makes a great product.

ARGH
I did it again?
I was referring to more than one person so i used "they're".
What does "they're" mean? What is it short for and what is its function in a sentence?

You should have used the possessive "their."

Basically, if you aren't suer about language, don't use apostrophes at all. If you see an apostrophe, and it isn't being used in a possessive role (John's guitar, for instance) review the sentence and use two (sometimes three) words instead. If the word can't be broken down into more words, then you've used an apostrophe wrongly.

Jazzmaster, XII, Bass VI, Coronado II.
But hey we all can dream right?
those are all top of the line models. I can see squier doing a mustang maybe but jazzmaster, etc., I think not.

New parts = new tooling OR a massive bulk purchase of hardware from someone else, which adds to the gamble of releasing this limited-appeal guitar, which raises the price of the instrument.

Any Fender with a whammy bar you want them to make would have a strat bridge if they did it.
To that end, they've already done most of 'em. They've made the Jagmaster, Cyclone, Super-sonic, now the CP duo-sonic is actually pretty retro... I think your guys' real problem is that vintage and re-issue Fenders aren't cheaper, not that their budget company doesn't produce an inferior quality version.
Who the hell wants a Squier Jazzmaster? I've seen them fuck up Strats and Teles, the "go fish!" of electric guitars, left and right in my time.

They did already have a very similar Black and Chrome Tele. This just seems to be the same thing but with buckers and akward toggle.

that would be a sweet mod. add a normal tele bridge pickup and a normal control plate flipped around w/extra switch for extra options.

They are going on sale for £379 if anyone is interested.

That's brilliant.

Double-bound Alder Telecaster for £379.

Two different pickups; Alnico and Ceramic.
I'm not a fan of the 12" radius, but he is a fast player so that makes sense.
