Squier are honouring Dinosaur Jnr's J Mascis and Fall Out Boy's Joe Trohman with two new guitars


Made to the two artists exacting specifications, the two new Artist Series guitars give fans the chance to play their hero's models.

Alt-hero J Mascis already has a Fender Signature Jazzmaster and now they've released a slightly more affordable Squier model with an equally as alluring Vintage White finish.

Features include a basswood body, C-shaped maple neck, rosewood fingerboard with 9.5” radius and 21 jumbo frets, two single-coil Jazzmaster pickups with three-position switching and dual tone circuits, gold anodized aluminum pickguard, Adjusto-Matic bridge with vintage-style floating tremolo tailpiece, vintage-style tuners, chrome hardware and J Mascis’ signature on the back of the large ‘60s style headstock.

The Joe Trohman model is an interpretation of the early '70s Telecaster Deluxe with three pickups.


features include an alder body, C-shaped maple neck, rosewood fingerboard with 12” radius and 22 jumbo frets, two open-coil humbucking pickups (neck and bridge), single-coil Stratocaster middle pickup, five-position rotary pickup selector switch, upper bout kill switch, vintage-style six-saddle strings-through-body hardtail bridge, chrome hardware, large 1968-style Stratocaster headstock with Trohman’s signature on the back, and Two-color Sunburst finish. 

The guitars cost $599.99 each.
