Squier offsets 2017

[fcknoise]

So while ILF was down I hung around OSG for a little while, and found this thread that revealed the new offsets from squier,



A not fuckugly offset baritone? Yes please

[gnomethrone]

That baritone looks rad.

[odontophobia]

looks like that baritone has a TOM bridge instead of the Dano bridge which has me very excite. Will definitely be looking into one. Shop nearby my place usually gets the new squier stuff in -- they got the current baritone which was pretty whatever but it played really excellently.

if this new crop is the same then we're in for a treat.

Dat black on black bari

No Electric XII though. Will it ever happen?

[coldbrightsunlight]

Shit is that a baritone with p90 style pickups? Time to start saving...

[Disarm D'arcy]

Looks more like JM pickups

[coldbrightsunlight]

Good call. Still cool!

[fcknoise]

OSG was filled with "I hope they don't remove the white/gold JMJM" and "no electric XII :'(" (which I'm also bummed about. I'm glad I guessed correctly about what y'all would be into

Saying that, the bari is mine as soon as it hits the shops

[odontophobia]

Yeah. I have been gassing hard for some extended scale action in my life and the BaritoneTelecasterd don't get much love. And they never pop up at good prices.

[odontophobia]

And matching headstock.

Hngfggg.

This is interesting to me, because cause now that I'm almost 30, I not only have a Squier (well, all but the neck), but they've become desirable. I know it's been that way for sometime now, but it's hard to shake that high school prejudice that "Squier is garbage."

turned 31 this year. bought a vmjm. it's a great guitar, love it.
had a squier strat i bought in 06 that i sold to a friend. should buy it back and turn it into a sweet baritone strat or something. had a really awesome cherry burst body with mint guard.

I guess they were garbage, but for the price the classic vibes teles were really good, and the vintage modified offsets and a bass VI ri were exactly what people wanted. Quality wise I can't complain about my vm Jag, actually it's pretty much beyond my expectations.

I think the theme is that their bottom barrel stuff *kinda* sucks and their Classic Vibe, Vintage Modified, Signature, etc. lines are all super solid for the bread. Electronics tend to be on the meh side, but I believe they are the best modding platform out there.

Oh yes. I was just thinking about some baritone action. Sexy as fuck.
