Oh, finally an Affinity Jaguar.
With Strat(?) pickups though.
I actually like the pickguard with the Wronski-esque switch-direction. This (template) would be something for my Lipstick-Jag idea…
Some may argue that „it‘s not a Jag without the plates“ - but for the lower-price-level/gateway-Jag it‘s okay.

And I actually dig the affinity Starcaster with the Big Headstock and Laurel fingerboard. This could be a possible future (used market) purchase.

would love to see the jag route, i kinda want one.

Damn that (oxblood?) jag and white Starcaster are right up my alley!

I think the Jag was listed as Mystic Metallic Brown, not a colour I'd spotted before.

Yeah just saw that on CME’s website! Somewhat of an odd color for an affinity series but I actually kinda like it lol

I usually like a Squier drop. But not liking any of these so far!

Those affinity jags are very close in price to a used classic vibe Jag.

maple is a sin in a jaguar.

Yes, it's a sin to do a maple board and then not add blocks and binding.

I like the brown as much as ever, but on the whole, these are a bit meh.

The telecasters and affinity Jag are right up my street. No space or money for them, but maybe my next bonus might find it's way to a guitar shop...

I think the blue Offset Tele looks pretty nice, despite my dislike of matching headstocks and block inlays.

Honestly, I think this would be a lot of people's go-to guitar if Fender would push them more. When I pick up a regular Tele these days, all I think about is how my forearm is rubbing against the edge of the guitar, and I instantly put it down. The only downside with offsets that I can even come up with is that your fretting hand is a bit further than it would be with a regular Tele.

What I really want to know is what the Jag body is routed like...

Wow, wow, wow, wow!
