NGD: Not exactly. (Squier Classic Vibe.)

[Artie]

I bought this in 2018, so not exactly "new", but I don't think I've ever posted this before. I walked into one of my fav local music stores, and spotted this from across the room. I went and grabbed it off the rack, took it to the counter, and said, "I'll take it." The main thing was the roasted maple neck. Next was the color. This is probably the most beautiful guitar in my herd.

I bought a hardshell case at the same time. I put it in the case and have never played it. (Other than to test it.) My photog skills suck. It's an amazing Teal-ish green-blue, with deep metallic sparkles. Matching headstock, with gold "Squier" logo. The camera flash makes the neck too bright. It's a deep, dark roasted maple neck.

It's a Classic Vibe, but I can't remember if it's CV 50's or 60's. All the plastic is still on the pickguard, pups, and trem cover.

I love just picking this up and looking at it. It does actually sound good, even though I only played it for minutes.

That is cool! I have a 1982 Fender that is very similar- maybe a slightly deeper blue, but maple neck/fb and painted headstock with gold logo. I'd notice that one in a music store, too.

Thanks.

Don't know why the forum software is rotating the pics around. They were straight when I posted them.

Hey, at least we can post pics!

I dig that. The CV series guitars are well known to be good value for the money. The flame on that next is certainly unexpected on a Squier. You should drag that out of the hard case and play it more frequently.
