That has got to be an April Fools Day prank.

An awful lot of energy expend on a prank, but interesting hypothesis.

Can't wait to order my "Chumlee" and "Big Hoss" models! I hear "The Old Man" is pretty retro!

NO prank...that sunburst TeleStrat's F-hole is succumbing to gravity...awful. And, with the Squier '51 at less than half the price of the PS '51, how finely do you want to split product hairs?
PS= Pawn Shop? Nope...PS=Piece a S***
Offset fanatics have been begging for a Mustang/DuoSonic with humbuckers, for a long time. Too bad the price is so high for the market in these...

Wha' 'bout the Jagmaster? Squier, but close enough, eh?

Well, it's an offset, and it's got hummers, but it seems that the Mustang body shape is what gets their hearts beating fast. And the 'Stang's pickups are so thin-sounding...

The MustangĀ® Special is the only one that I think has real legs. Pretty cool guitar.

I think these all look awful, and the price is ridiculous. The Mustang Special looks terrible without the Mustang tremolo unit, and the look of the "downsized" Wide Range Humbuckers is just blechhhh!
Every guitar here looks like a Squier, for $799.

There is a Metallica song on the album Master Of Puppets called "The thing that should not be".
That's all I have to say about this
