Pawn shop mustang body and Venus neck maybe? He has played both as live guitars, maybe he just combined the parts he liked best? Although the headstock looks different than a Venus. (this is of course under the assumption that it is a home made and not an unreleased actual Squire model)

Yeah, headstock's the wrong shape for a Venus. Also think there's too much room behind the trem for that to be a pawn shop Mustang body.
Like it though. _________________

Back of headstock looks like a Squier, if you do a search you'll find similar text in pics, but it's cut to a 1964/1965 shape. Body is custom and looks like some of the stuff on here or the switch tip forum. _________________

If this is an official signature model I'm totally gonna buy one, do my hair into a bowl cut and then just stand in my living room holding it and shouting along to this whole album really enthusiastically.
Could be a signature model, or maybe just a prototype thats never going to get released. Also this made me realise that the new fellas came out 10 years ago .

Asked for pics on twitter and he appears to have delivered.
The body to me looks like the front end of a Mustang and the back end of a Jaguar. Even the control plate looks more Jaguar.
Looks like a Jaguar neck pickup and some kind of 'bucker in the bridge.
I have no idea what the neck is. Definitely Squier.
If I could design my own guitar, it'd probably look exactly like that. (Maybe a colour change)
Saw these guys (again) in Glasgow last night. Amazing gig. Love this band.
I like it but can't help think the market is now saturated with all this kind of pawn shop/offset/frankenstein stuff.
Would rather Fender or Squier make a completely new model. _________________

You can see the Duncan Designed logo on the Jag pickup in some pics. The bridge seems to be of the type used on the VM offsets too. I'm leaning towards a prototype for a potential sig model.
What shortscale Squier came in burgundy mist? And if it's homebrewed, why fake the Squier logo? To say nothing of the lack of a model name on the decal.
It is funny how Fender can so rarely take a cue from anything resembling a current scene, it's like they reserve judgement til the following decade and go "ok, was this group any good or are we about to stand behind a modern day Starland Vocal Band as if they were super cool and kicked a lot of ass?" _________________
