Squier is now trolling stupid blink182 super fans by today releasing the same exact guitar with one extra pickup for $900 less. This guitar is made in the same factory as the Tom delong model.

The Squier Affinity Starcasters were released with the Squier Starcaster range a few years back, they've been around for ages.

They can't based on the fact they are foreigners. I think Fender is trying to commit an electoral fraud by sneaking one inside America changing their last name and claiming they are local

How dare they take the jobs of hard working American guitars. I suggest a wall (of Marshalls) to keep them out.

I know that. They had the penis headstock before. Now they have the regular headstock like the delong model.
