Perhaps we can get a more detailed stream of consciousness from the man here in a reply rather than reading a guitar.com report from today

Re: Cribs call for musuar reissue
I'd buy one. I really regret not getting one of the original runs! I was still waiting to find one to try in person by the time I found out they were a super-limited edition that had already sold out.
And that's just based on it being a really cool guitar, not because it's anyone's signature model. I'd never really listened to The Cribs before seeing it. Contrary to how signature models usually work, I discovered the band via the guitar rather than vice versa. And they're an excellent band that I'm glad I discovered, but that's not my main reason for wanting one. They gave Fender a really cool design that's sadly going to waste.
How cool would it be if Fender / Squier did a matching Jag-stang and Mus-uar set?

Re: Cribs call for musuar reissue
Crazy what they’re going for now. I’m half tempted to list mine although it has been played some and has a couple
mods. Originally bought from thomann in 2016 for $450 shipped. Stoked I grabbed it at the time, even though haven’t played it a ton lately.

If Squier's current marketing strategy is any indication, the Musuar will be reissued around 2040 as part of the Extrasensory series.

Re: Cribs call for musuar reissue
Yeah, really wish they’d do some kinda thing to make affordable versions of otherwise signature guitars - so like the Mascis Jazzmaster, do a JagStang/Cobain Jaguar, reissue the Venus, the Jim Root Jazzmaster, Johnny Marr Jaguar, Costello Jazzmaster, etc. etc. etc. or even all new ones - give a handful of cool bands the opportunity to design a signature model within the Squier brand. This is all a pipe dream to be sure but a guy can hope I guess. Matching headstock JagStang would be sick, maybe some metallic variants this time?

Regret not getting one for £250 new on Denmark St about 2 months after release! Toured with The Cribs in '17 and got to talk about all manner of Offset things. They know their stuff! True nerds, like us.

Re: Cribs call for musuar reissue
Are they good guitars?
I regret never collecting any money from a friend who bought my l/h Jagstang. But I hated the body shape & the pickups. So regret is just about money. And let’s be honest, I’ve wasted far more cash on drugs and booze.

I have nothing to offer anybody, except my own confusion?

Re: Cribs call for musuar reissue
Always regret not buying one of the basses when Thomann were getting rid of them. Would absolutely buy both if they were re-released.
