I doubt Fender's case will stand They too have been copying from others different solutions over the years For example the contoured neck joint (dunno the exact name in english), i don't think they invented it but they have models using it.

    sorry for the late reply

    yea my thought is, if you buy a squier then a huge chunk of that money goes into marketing and paying the fender C level. If you get an HB it's probably the best price/quality ratio

    one thing tho is the neck. if squier's CV necks are fenderish, then I feel like I'd have to choose them... still making up my mind eheh

    Did you see this video? I did and found it interesting.

    My immediate thought is that I would like this same test to be done on Tele style guitars from HB and Squire, to see if there is a difference.

    Secondly I think Les Paul style guitars are a bit more complex to build compared to Tele or strat style, so I think it should not be such a problem on those guitars.

    Still, it is worrying a bit, because you can tell the quality of the body wood is abysmal, and this guitar honestly seems like garbage material wise... so if I had ideas about getting an HB, i would likely not get it after seeing this video, which is a refreshing take after having seen so many videos praising HB.

    Thoughts?

     

    As the title says, I currently own a Fender Mustang 90 which I absolutely love. Sometimes I like to fantasize about getting a second guitar, to go with it in order to cover more tonal ground and try different things. I'm bouncing between jazzmasters, teles, starts style guitars and can't make up my mind. So my question, what would you pick? My favourite genre is fuzz rock - so the mustang is perfect for that - but who knows I might expand my horizons

    Ciao!
