I just picked up the Squier Affinity Strat HSS.There is a gap where the neck meets the body,closest to the stap button.The lower part is good with no gap.I can stick the end of a"thin" pick into this gap.Thats how wide it is.I did tighten the neck being careful not to "over torq'.But the gap is still there.I love the guitar and this is the only "blemish" I found on the guitar as I carefullly inspected it from headstock to strap button out of the box.It plays great(after set up by tech) and am not overly concerned with this. I would like to hear if anyone else has this issue.And would like to know if this is an issue with any other Fender brand guitars.This guitar was made in Indonesia S/N IC0809.......

if you can exchange/return back the guitar from where you bought it from, i suggest you get a China made Squier because in terms of workmanship and electronics, Indonesian, Korean and Indian made Squiers are most likely to be the worse guitar manufacturers. previously i've also come to this 'neck' problem and what i realized was almost all guitars' neck (especially Squier) made in Indonesia, Korea and India are like that.
