guys i've noticed that former fall out boy guitarrist and current the damned things guitarrist joe trohmann is using a tele deluxe guitar... i took a better look at the guitar in a dimarzio video about him (it's on youtube) and i noticed that it had squier on the headstock and it has a hsh configuration it got me thinking... is it possible that the guitar is a prototype for a new signature model? does squier have a custom shop? or could it just be a home modded guitar?... i dunno why but i'm pretty sure it's a prototype for a new signature model...

Well, they seem to be in good terms with Fender so anything is possible for a promo. But don't get too caught up in having the same guitar because a production model will never be the same as a prototype. I don't think any musician wants their secret setups put into production.

obviously lol i was just hoping that they'd put a squier tele deluxe (or at least some new finishes to the tele custom)

I'm sure they will and it's always nice to see the sig of your favorite musician on your guitar. I'm still drooling over an EVH Wolfgand I setup for a friend. Even though the sig is engraved on the back of the neck it still feels so cool. The guitar is not too bad either. It's a lot smaller than my strat. I didn't feel the neck slant this time. It just felt nice. The body was kind of square unlike a strat. I wasn't able to plug in and see how it stacked up against my EVHGF pickup but maybe someday. I still like my strat.

Long live Fender guitars!

Take care,

just found the answer to this in a recent interview with joe himself

this Squire by Fender that they kind of made for me. We might make more of them, or not. I'm not so sure how signature worthy I am…but none-the-less, it's a very cool guitar. It's very unique, it's a custom shop but it is a Squire


he answered everything he even talked about the whole signature deal
