Hi guys

I have often thought about this for fun.. What are Squiers equivalent models of 'original design'?
Think of these as parallel universe guitars but Squier hehe

please feel free to join in with your own suggested equivs. I have a couple..

Squier '51 = Fender Stratocaster

The '51 is based on 1951 Precision Bass, more popularly known as 'The Telecaster Bass'. Probably Squier's flagship original design.

Squier Supersonic = Fender Jazzmaster

The Squier Supersonic is pretty much an upside down Jazzmaster. The vista series was made in Japan around the late 90s. The Jagmaster.. also fills this role but as we need a Jag equiv. Strat trem.

Squier Jagmaster = Fender Jaguar

Electrically pretty much identical, 1V 1T HH 3-way, to the Supersonic, but right way up. Strat trem.

I would have thrown in the Stage/Showmasters as a parallel to the Strat and used the '51 for the Tele, but the Stage/Showmasters are so heavily influenced by the Strat and the '51 was the first original design afaik, and if not first, I feel, definitive original design.

Tornado and Cyclone are Fender designs.. or I would have had the Cyclone up against the Mustang hehe

It'd be great if we could get, imho, Squier Musiclanders with reverse 70s headstock and a floyd/locking nut :P :)

Anyways my knowledge of Squier is decent but not extensive .. maybe you guys can work something out.. or failing that.. make your own crazy creation wish list :)
