So I was on a job down in Beaumont, TX for about seven weeks. Turned out to be a oustanding trip.

I found this Squier 51 brand new in a really amazing store. It did cost me $175 which I wasn't excited about, but they are so hard to find un-modded I had to pull the trigger.

I also found a 93 MIM Squier, and a Champion 600 which I thought had been discontinued at time of purchase, but now GC and MF are about giving them away.

Has the Squier 51 train sailed? Was it a flash in the pan a couple years ago? Either way I really like it. I'm enjoying the tele neck.

I have a similiar story. I found one on a music supply website earlier this year. When I called they said they didnt have it. They called me back and said they found one. It was brand new in the box never played. the same evening I won a bid on ebay the same evening.and now I have two. Their picture is posted on the squire club thread.

They also have some amazing amps. Also when I bought the 51 they did a full set up.

They dont however do a pricematch... ergo $175 for 51.

Cool guitar! I used to have this one but I sold it 5 years ago.

Now I want one again because I saw Cassie in Vivian Girls playing one.
