Been gassing for one for a long time. Buying it brand new, sight unseen...or play unplayed. Should be here by the long weekend. :

Wish me luck that I don't get a turd. :

[Dauntless]

Luck Dude!

[Spudman***]

Great choice.
Those are fine sounding and playing guitars. I have almost gotten one several times but...I wanted something with more heft.

They make those with alder bodies and the necks feel very nice.

Enjoy.

From what I hear, with a good setup, these are quite passable.

Hmmm... might be a good base for a blackguard Esquire project

Keep us posted. Pics and clips, brother. Pics and clips. :

[Kazz]

Good luck bro...let us know how it turns out.

Yeah. Almost all the reviews are gleaming. Being poor, I had to buy another budget guitar. I actually could have done without it, but you know how it is.

That being said, I had enough coin to spare for a Standard Squier. But I still sprung for this one. I really didn't see that much of a difference, especially when all the reviews say they play great and sound decent. Anyone have experience with both the BSB Affinity and the Standard line?

[Brian Krashpad]

No experience with those here, but congrats and good luck!

You'll be fine with buying from MF, if it's a dog you can send her back. I have a modded Squier Bullet Strat coming from ebay-- if that'un's a dud I'm screwed!

Very nice, love the blonde.
All teles should have maple necks, hate rosewood on a tele.

I expect to get a Squier BSB Tele as my next guitar. The reviews from many sources say that this is another one of those - "how do they do it" Squiers.

You will like it!!
I've got one I've made a few changes to, sitting right here next to my computer! That makes it the first Tele I reach for, when I want that

"BSB?"

School me.

[Spudman***]

"BSB?"

School me.

ButterScotch Brian.


Actually I thought BSB referred to Braun Sunburst. That is the light amber center with the brown around the edges like the Richie Kotzen Telecaster.

Ah, brownburst!



I reckon I know what you mean. Although my burst Tele seems a little darker than what you have in mind.

The thing is - the OP is talking about the Affinity Tele which is Butterscotch.

Sniff...sniff...what's that smell?

Oh, ok...it's just that dog over there in the grass. Whew! I thought for a minute....

All kidding aside, Rabies, from what I've seen of the Squires coming out of Indonesia lately, it'll probably be a great guitar. Seem to be some of the best bang for the buck deals going.

[Rabies]

So...I'm sitting here waiting for Brown Truck...:

[Rabies]

Brown Truck arrived a few hours ago...

[Gil Janus]

So - pictures - a quick review ?

Or have you been drawn into the guitar ?
