Such a shame the Blue one has a super aneamic neck? Why isn't it lovely and tinted like the others?

I think the photo is just over exposed and washed out.

Squier is really upping there game. I wonder if I'll ever buy a Fender again.
Serfx the duo in 56-58 was only offered in that color/pickguard and what not that's why.

Not to THAT extent. It looks like the same finish as the Duo-Sonic, which is white as hell.

It is pretty heavily overexposed. You can't see the screws which you can in the other photo. But you might be right.

Forgive me if I've got this wrong, but you work in a Music Shop, right? Do you reckon you could let us know how these look in person if you get any in?

I love the Classic Vibes. Only constant car trouble prevented me from buying a Precision Bass this month. Fucking Peugeot.

Suck my balls, Euan. This thing is as pasty as you are:

Also if they made a big headstock clubby neck 70s style Classic Vibe Strat I will gnaw my arm off to get one. I love those 70s Mutt Strats that everyone else hates.

Yeh, no probs... it's wembley guitar centre. we have the 60's sunburst and Duo in at the mo, also the tele bass which is truly amazing !! I think that's it. The 50's strat and tele sold recently though. I will see if I can persuade the others to get a new shipment of CVs... we may need to sell a few fenders first though.

Do they put decent pups in these or are they those cheesy ones.I would get a new set of pickups from GFS IF I were to get one.I has too many strats right now.

And where's all the strat hatez?
