That looks too light for Daphne blue—or maybe I'm used to the vintage ones...

Because it's not Daphne Blue. Fender has been using "good enough color for beggars" in Squier model lines for decades now.
These Sweetwater exclusives look more like actual Daphne Blue than Fender's Daphne Blue on budget models. Both listed as Tropical Turquoise but look different. Could be different lighting when they took pictures. Sweetwater and CME are good at twisting Fender's balls and giving them actually nice colors
