Thats the Fender cyclone 2. A lot different to a Squier Cyclone.

I have a Fender version that is simialr to the Squier. I love it to death, however, I did get the following to mod it:

Dimarzio Tone Zone, Tremolno trem lock.

It's a great guitar, although I don't like the fact that I have to use an angled head if I want the bar in place. Minor. I also like the fact that they have the look and comfort of the Fender Student body guitars w/o having to mod a vintage to get modern stuff.

I have a Fender version. Great guitar. Other than my mustang it has probably my favorite neck on it. I have no experience with the Squier version but I would recommend the Fender version.
