*winces at the shape* Isn't it amazing how just a little difference can make or break a shape like that?

(I haven't seen one BTW, just had to have a look :))

Judging from Harmony-central sometime around 2003. The squier m-series is usually faily good though I hadn't seen the LP version before.

Isn't it funny how it looks just a LITTLE bit too wide... you are right, a few alterations can vastly change the overall appearance.

No idea how or when they made these. Looks to be relativey new??

MMMmmm. Not too sure about that at all. :?

It doesn't look at all right. It seems to be neither one thing or the other.

I'll pass on that one I think.

These (and other models) were sold under their original name until Fender bought the company out - they were originally Guilds. They were relaunched under the Squier banner soon after that.

I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.

Yeah -- really too bad Fender bought Guild. The acoustics are not the same; now the electrics will be down marketed. That Squier shape is the original shape of the Bluesbird, considered by many a very good LP-type guitar. The shape changed later on, but still is very distinct from the Gibby LP.

I've played one from 2002. It was really nice.

Like nails on a chalkboard almost. I bet that's what a les paul would look like if I tried crafting one from scratch.
