Looks akward. I don't get along with short scale fenders anyway.

Probably just me, but I'd much rather see fender come up with a long scale mustang or jaguar :idk:

The white looks silly and cute. Good pickup choices and thinline style guards are stylish.
Good deals: OsbornKT, Phantasmagorovich, UglyCasanova, DarkAxel, Skip, D.o.S, ColdBrightSunlight, Eivind August, Goroth

They should've just made the Strat's jack side mounted, it looks really awkward.

It's weird to me that Fender just recently sold Guild but is still using guild parts on new fender product. Not saying that selling guild means they couldn't use the parts anyway..... Just kinda weird to me.

Extra stock in their shop, what else are they supposed to do with it?

I wish Fender kept the same body size too. These look ridiculous. But maybe they're meant for kiddos. But anyways, they already have a small bodied 24" guitar (mustang). How about a couple of those with experimental pickup combos instead?

Ugh, why did they use barrel saddles on a shortscale? Intonation is gonna completely blow.
