Anyone pick up a 60's Vibe yet?

I'm itchin' for one of these & I've heard some really good early reviews on all of the other Classic Vibes (Tele, 50's Strat, Duo, etc.). But I haven't heard anything about the 60's yet. Anyone got one? Reviews? Pics? Thanks!

Are you talking the squier 60's vibe strat? I test drove one but found a deal on a CP 60 and went that route. Much better IMHO

Yeah, thats the one. How was your experience with it? They don't have them in stores around here. I'd have to order it from MF or something.

I stopped in a local shop recently looking for the Vibe Tele and saw the Strats there. The amber tint on the neck is very nice as is the profile and fret finish with the 50's having a flatter radius. The body weight is light compared to the other Squiers hanging next to it.
I didn't have time to plug in but I was tempted to try the Princeton RI as well.
I don't think you can go wrong for $300.
