I just ordered one for myself. The green ones (they say there are 2 left) are cheapest, but the most expensive ones are $125. THe exact same guitars on Amazon are nearly $200! A friend of my wife's, ordered one of these for her kid off of Amazon. It's light, the neck feels pretty good (I hate skinny necks, and this one feels more substantial than the Squier Affinity I have)
The neck and pocket widths are 2 1/4", not the F standard 2 3/16", and parts may not be interchangeable with project guitar, without modification.

I just found this thread about these over at Squier Talk:
http://www.squier-talk.com/threads/sawtooth-et-series-tele-o.120961/
THose guys are just raving about these guitars. I thought even if it's a dog, it was less than $60, and I could set it up for my freind's kid who wants to start playing. But if they're as nice as they keep saying...

74C14531-97F6-46C7-99AE-348C471A7E4F.jpgWell, it showed up today. It’s FANTASTIC considering I paid less than a tank of gas for it!
It’s a full-depth Sycamore body, the neck feels nice and full, it’s matte finished like recent Squiers, like a thin seal coat instead of glossy Poly. The pups sound just fine, I was prepared to hate them, but it sounds like a Tele should. I have a MIM Tele with the stock (ceramic) neck and a vintage-wind A5 bridge, and I think the Sawtooth sounds better. I do want to change the tone circuit (4-way switch and decent pots) but I have those things already, from another project. I broke the high E trying to tune the guitar when I first got it home, so I tuned it Open G And fired off some Stones riffs with it. Man it sounds good!
