Ouch. Did you trade it for another strat? Maybe you can negotiate a return-trade with the guy you made the deal with?

Hope all goes well..

[BOOGIE_79]

Sir, yung cavity ba niyan sa neck kayang i-accomodate ang humbucker?

I guess it could.

what kind of strat did you get in return?

pm ko nalang sayo bro.. nakakahiya..

Got your pm bro.. Regrets are really frustrating but in my experience, in the end it's better to just let go. I also had a silver series too not long ago. It was a 90's mij squire tele that I let go (which I miss) but in my case it's just with my vocalist so during jams I'm glad I still get to play it a bit.

I'm sure a strat out your door, in return another strat (which you really like) will eventually come back in. Hope you get that Fender for Christmas!

I guess it could. 

Nice! Kapag di rin pala ako makahanap ng Fender na HS, ayos na rin yan. Onting dagdag na gastos pero oks na rin.

Kamusta naman tunog tsaka playability niyan?

[more1898]

Here's my Squier:

Ganda talaga ng Jazzmaster, stock pick-ups pa rin ba ang setup bossing?

Pinalitan ko yung stock ng Squire Jagmaster ko para sa mini-humbuckers. Ang kinalabasan ay nakakatuwa naman. Salamat sa iyong papuri chief

astig ng Jagmaster!    pinalitan nyo din ba ng pickguard yan na pang Jazzmaster sir? 

[Saturn/Return]

Salamat sir! Yup, it's a custom 3-ply pickguard made by Arie Hipolito (GH)

[shodawmoon]

up ko lang. i was in yamaha greenhills yesterday, saw and played around with a jagmaster. good neck and finish, i liked the duncan designed HB's on them. it's 17k...good guitar IMHO. (MIC siya)

and

i saw this Standard Series indonesia strat S-S-H pups, "mintish green" color pup covers and pguard and it costs 29k...and is on sale for 22k....stay away from that (i tried it...meh) kahit mga staff dun nagtataka kung bakit 29k ang reg. price nun.

and just to add info for the benefit of everyone

recent 09 and late 08 squier models of the standard series are MIC. and for the rest of the models above the standard our indonesian. i guess since china's been upping the ante on their build quality...this became the result. IMHO China's catching up with Indonesia's craftsmanship, and some indo's i've tried lately have been of "meh" quality.

[more1898]

i suggest you try it first... as for me, i am very much contented with the affinity series of my friend when i first tried it... the neck and the fingerboard suits my taste... i have done a lot of research so now i am very much ready to buy one... regalo ko sa sarili ko sa pasko... though mahirap mag-ipon kasi college na... sir san nyo balak bumili ng guitar? sa PP ba or yupangco? may idea kayo sa price ng standard telecaster ng squier? may nakita ako na thread na nagbebenta ng red arctic burst na squier standard telecaster 16k... i think the price is too much... may idea ba kayo sir sa exact price?

sir nasa 12k, if cash makukuha mo sya ng almost 11k..kapag credit card eh i think almost 12k...Pefect pitch and yamaha po yancash kasi yun standard tele ko..hope na natulungan po kita.

may tanong lang ako sa mga Squier 51 users, pag ba pinalitan ko yung pickups nung 51 ko dapat eh G-spaced? sabi kasi sa wiki eh mas narrower daw yung spacing ng pickups ng 51 kumpara sa ibang Squiers  thanks!
