Squier Affinity V vs Contemporary Jazz V - Opinions

[glassmoon]

Good afternoon all, 

 

So in light of the truss rod on my Cort 5 found to be fused (and while not unplayable, it's no longer adjustable for super low action).... I'm considering going the Squier route and doing some mods down the road. 

 

I missed on a Squier deluxe, so in my searching, I found the Affinity which looks decent, and then the Contemporary, which is a rather different beast altogether. 

I've always had a soft spot for Squiers, but am I going backwards here? 

 

I play, when I play, in pop/rock/function bands, so Jack of all trades requirements. 

Anyone have one of these that they use and like?T alk me out of it, or all the way into one hahahaha

 

Thanks in advance
