my knee-jerk response to those two models is "ICK," but when i look a second time i rather like them. i agree 100% about the Jazzmaster neck. "that's hot!"

I'm personally excited for the squier Toronado, it was far from my favorite guitar but I do feel it's underappreciated, and was the basis for control layouts for every electric I've built since

The new weirdo squier stuff all looks a lot cooler to me.

Look at this!!



And the baritone tele....

Here's hoping it's a 30" scale. I missed out on the Jazzmaster baritone and the few I see online are WAY too expensive

:'(

I'll be tempted to try one for sure

That Jazz-Strat is pretty fine looking. The parallel universe line is my favourite thing they've done in probably a decade (the last thing they made that I want is a Roscoe Beck bass), before this you would have to go to Warmoth et al if you wanted an oddball Fender mash-up but now you can buy one for less than a million doolahs and in this day and age you'll be getting pretty decent QC to boot.

Yeah I don't like all of these guitars but I love that they're doing stuff that's different instead of a million variants of strat!

The Squier mini HH Jazzmaster leaked and then disappeared. If it comes out and it’s typical $150 any day of the week, that could be a fun impulse guitar to mod.

Cool that they've remade CuNiFe wide range humbuckers for the American Original Telecaster Custom - hope lots of people buy them so they might reissue the Ranaldo Jazzblaster or even just a Telecaster Deluxe with those.

This custom shop Marauder looks incredible and has a built in delay:

are they working with one of those "boutique" offset builders like fano or are they just riffing on their ideas?
edit: o shit i guess old marauders looked like that?

Yeah according to the article this is what the original prototypes looked like, but they never went into production

Marauder looks tasty

In this day and age is fender relevant? And is so.why?

Becaaaause they still make some nice guitars?
