I saw these. I like that they're being made for some reason, but I don't like them.

They also sort of made me realise why some people think the Aerodyne series are ugly. I think those are incredible looking, but I can see now how "classic-shape but made a bit fancier and with inexplicable visual tweaks" can be so jarring.

I think the only thing I dislike is how cut and paste the pickguard is between all models in the line. And it isn’t a very interesting or aesthetically pleasing shape to begin with.

Ew yeah, get some Cabronita-style guards on there.. although he two on the right aren't so bad in that respect, at least

Yeah, I thought the collective nouns were buffalo herds and kangaroo mobs.

Not for me, but I don't hate them. A few more options stylistically isn't a bad thing.

What counts as "mid price" nowadays? £600-£800?

I think I'd probably like the other two without the guard, though.

Might help that the potatocap photo in this thread is BLURRY AS FUCK.

No no, they’re not blurry, they’re part of the Fender Soft Series.
