That was my thought, I'm sure it plays amazingly and sounds great but the shape ruins it for me :?

Fuckit, we can't all complain that none of the big companies try anything new anymore and then complain when everything isn't a strat or tele.

How does it sound, Fran? Demo?

<3 that Mockingbird Fran. That's the only BCR model I'm into. As others have said, that price is incredible.

Here's some pics of my lil family to date :
My 90s Fender Toronado with Duncan Phatcats .
Image
My Fender Baja Tele . Stock . Thinking of adding a Bigsby . I most likely will since I can't keep anything standard.
Image
My Squier 51. One of the first ones . Way better made than the newer ones. One of my favorites and my cheapest . Duncan Invader in the Bridge , Duncan Vintage rail in the neck . Might too get a Bigsby . Image
My Fender Mustang 69 Reissue. Wil stay stock . Needs NOTHING . Favorite bass.
Image my twins . My lovely twins . Eastwood Hi Flyers . 6 string and a 4 string. I don't give a fuck . These are awesome guitars . Way better than the Univoxs they clone .
Image
My Squier Dirnt Bass. Gotoh 201 and a Basslines 1/4 Pounder . Excellent bass.
Image
Last but not least my Alden Quadrastar . Such a fucking oddball quirk guitar I was compelled to have it . I take delivery at the end of the month. I will write a full review when I get it ( Since there isn't a fucking thing on them anywhere on the web)

That's not true at all - the Baja has never been offered with anything but a maple neck and black or white single-ply guards. That's (at the very least east) a Baja with a different neck and guard.

How many different versions of the Squier '51 were there? I was near certain there was just one run, but that quality was inconsistent throughout, so some guitars are very good, and a lot were awful.

Bingo . I have 2. Obvious differences in build quality. One was a 2005 and the other was a 2007 . The 2007 the wood is just shit . Took em both apart and it just showed . The older ones were just made better .



Don't know how people would say all 51s were horrible . Electrics kinda sucked like most other Squiers but if you change out the pickups and pots and they're great . Stock they're just blah.
