2010+ Classic Vibe Thinline and Custom club

[Mark Davis]

This is the place for new owners of the just released CV Custom and Thinline models.

The other CV thread got so big it would be a mess to combine these 2 new models so lets start a new club.

No reason to add serial #'s to this one that turned out to be a nightmare in the other thread.

Nice job Mark...and thanks for thinking ahead regarding the serial #'s....that was certainly cool, but poor Carzee (and whoever else helped keep that list updated!)

This Custom is gonna be hard to avoid.

I love my CV 50's tele, for sure. Are these new models being made in China like the CV 50? I've been following the posts, but have not seen it confirmed yet. I can't wait for your personal review. I am hoping for a 20% off coupon soon. I will most likely get a Custom and then maybe even the Thinline. I'm more attracted to this Squier line up than the Fenders now!

[Mark Davis]

Yes all the CV series Teles Strats and Bass guitars are made in China.

I had no idea the CV's would become so popular I really thought maybe 50-75-100 tops would enter their serial #'s on the CV 50's.

The list got so long the forum software cant show it all in 1 message so probably a better idea not to list the serials.

One reason I added the serials to that original CV thread was mine was so good I thought quality might change or they might change the specs and we could have a serial # breakdown of older vs newer ones. But the qualuty stayed the same np specs changed.

[krauser2]

[Televised]

Really like the looks of the Thinline! Sound with the stock pups a good thing? It wouldn't take too much to fan the flames on this one.

[xjazzy]

I'll be putting my name here for sure

[brittwin]

mine is ordered and shipped.... UPS has control right now.... C'MON ALREADY!!! GET HERE!

[BoogerRooger]

Keep a place warm for me!

Mrs BoogerRooger (the voice of reason), has given the green light!

Don't think they've landed in the UK yet though.

[alexpigment]

this is about the most *realistic* GAS i've had in a while. i've been gassing over the 62 customs for years, but now the price point on these squiers is enough to make me pull the trigger. all i'm waiting for is a few good reports from the tdpri members.
