My new Squier. What? Again?

I know this is getting old. But, look at the pic of the neck. I know decals can lie to you. We shall see. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWN:IT&ih=008

Nice one Fett. This might actually turn out to be a great guitar.

I only found out a little about the Lace Californias but what the hell. I had plenty of time to think on this. I didn't hit it real fast.

How come it says Fender on the neck? I thought Squier's said, well, Squier. Good luck with it, have fun!

Some Squiers came with a big Fender logo and then "Squier Series" in small print on the ball end of the headstock. Or, somebody may have put a Fender logo on it later.

Looks like an upgraded Affinity to me judging by the Headstock shape and the rest of it. Still, that should be a one.

I like these mystery guitars.

Lace sensor Pup's are great too! You get are real accurate 50's-60's Strat tone out of them. Congrats!

This is a strange one. The body weighs a ton. I'll scrape the inside of the trem cav tomorrow to see if it's solid. The butt says; Capru 05. The Fender tuners are real and the neck has no refilled holes. The neck plate says Squier. The body has a sticker that says; Guitar Customs. I'm stumpted.

How does it sound?

[fett]

Not there yet. I took the day off to buy my Wheels. I'm slow.:ROTF:

Recent Squier MFG neck note the wide spaced 12th fret dots.Great necks tho'.
Check the thickness of the body at the neck pocket down to the neck plate. Some low end Squiers have thinner bodies.

I looked at it real close. It's an Affinity neck with the original logos removed. The Fender Stratocaster is a kinda raised sticker. It has a sticker on the back that reads Street Customs. The body is heavier than any Squire I have except for the one made in India. It's not plywood. I really not sure what it is.

[JetFixxxer]

Nice score... Tell them that you want somebody to inspect it? Taunton MA is pretty close to me.

[fett]

What? You mean there really is a Street Customs?
