I am now in too, after 18 years or so Squier-less I now have a '98 chinese made squier affinity strat (I assume it is anyway - CY98****** is the serial number?)- one bad ding but barely used. I have a question, what size of hole is it for the machineads as these need replacing? I will go for some gotoh ones if possible, the ones I can see on ebay have a 10mm insert, is this right? Otherwise I might get some wilkinsons again as I have them on three other guitars and they do their job fine

Here's a half MIJ Fender (body), half MIK Squier (neck) I built up for my brother in law. I used the lefty MIJ neck for my Hendrix Monterey Pop Festival strat and threw this together with left over pieces. I've owned about 8 or 9 1989 Korean Squiers and this is my last neck. The nicest I owned. Generic blade pickup in the bridge, Fender Vintage Noiseless in the neck, something generic in the middle, master volume. I just need to string it up as a lefty and tweak the intonation and it'll be done.

What's wrong with brotherhoods, fraternities, or, well.... clubs?

hahaha...my guess would be that; *these guitars are considered somewhat inferior, so forming a 'brotherhood' would be kinda ghey promoting ridicule. whereas, if 'we' have an 'army', then u'd be less apt to mess w/ us.* mentality??


i'm just guessin here.

Sign me up. My 98 MIM Squier Strat is the best Strat I've ever owned after a few minor upgrades (nut and tremblock). So good it made me realize I'm a Strat guy at heart, even though I'm not ready to sell my set neck hummers quite yet. Sorry no pics, but I was so impressed with the quack tone I made this hokey impromptu video:

Here's what I've done to that car boot squier -

wilkinson tuners installed as I bought some gotohs but they didn't fit, I'd got the wrong diameter ones - also a wilkinson loaded tort guard.


seeing as I now had a spare set of gotohs, I set about finding another guitar to put them on - got this stagg strat copy in excellent condition for
