It's funny, these sound so good, that if any band were to record an album with them, no one could tell the difference.... Squiers and Epiphone are now pure workhorse instruments.

That pinch harmonick laden lick pete does at about 30:00 and that whole run after was pretty fire off the top also the call and response part at the end killed it

[@tedc6694]

Captain is getting better and better (I've loved his blues playing for years but not showing plain old melodic soloing that's inspiring). Listening to Pete playing is and always has been a joy. To learn what's out and new is just a bonus ;)

[@flachetube]

I´m such impressed by this guitar video. Excellent job you two. I own a Squier CV 60s Custom Tele 3-SB since 2020 and became my main guitar. Cheers from Portugal.

[@IrLosin]

Lee playing a metal riff is the highlight of my day. And I have had quite the day.

Realy nice (and sentimental) "Intro Jam" from these two folks! 💟

[@billdehey1300]

That jam at the end was fantastic!!! Thanks

[@jameslewis2635]

That green and black Tele sounds great. That stacked single coil and neck bucker combo seemed to work really nicely. Of course an SRV inspired strat that it is possible to play without looking like a shameless fanboy is always welcome. I'm actually quite impressed how close to an SRV sound it manages in its defaut configuration despite having strings on it at the opposite end of the scalle from which SRV was known to use. Better put some telegraph wires on that thing! Squire seem to be knocking it out of the park here.

[@figjam9530]

i got one of the contemporary teles a couple of months ago. great guitar. the neck feels amazing, very playable guitar feel. but the star is the pickups, they are SHOCKINGLY good. very hot and not great for an ultra-clean tele sound but they come to life with some gain. imo the best "rock" tele on the market and it's a Squier. the only thing i dislike about it is the tuning pegs, kinda low quality, unfortunately, but it's an easy fix.

[@l3yfajamz]

I fell in love with that black tele you opened up with as soon as I saw it, I heading over to the website once the vid finished.🤘🤘🇬🇧

[@ELEVATETHESKY]

I love you guys so much lol. So good. Squier has come into their own now. It is so amazing how good they are at their price range. Bravo Fender/Squier.

[@underground_fuzz]

They all sound amazing! That crimson red Jazzmaster with maple neck caught my eye and now I have a soft spot for it 😌 I must say, hearing Lee heavy riffing on that green custom Telecaster was the coolest, along with Pete's sunglasses! 😎

[@BoltRM]

Like that Jazzmaster! I see in the specs it shows single-coil pickups, are they not Jazzmaster pickups or a misprint?

[@czechplastik]

@@BoltRM Jazzmaster pickups are single coils...

[@simondavid2519]

These sound absolutely insane !!

[@WharfRat4]

How about an Anderton's episode on guitars which "punch above their weight"? Pete and Lee each pick 3 guitars each from the Anderton's stock, at any price point, which they believe actually play/sound much better than than they should for what they cost. You could turn it into a competiton with someone else judging. Or you could each pick a sub £250, a sub £1000 and a sub £1500 with someone judging which is best at each price point.

[@TheBlackham]

love the bromance around 21 minutes ...great vid fellas

[@frankmitman3347]

Captain, my captain, your playing has gotten so much better. Pete, I listen to these reviews just hear you play. And these guitars sound amazing. Kudos.

[@frankmitman3347]

I started out a Les Paul guy but after getting a Tele Player I must concur with the Captain, everybody needs a Tele!! Cool collection guys 😎🎸💥

[@banditsbikeco3439]

I have the same tele, absolutely love it!!!

[@SwanSycorax]

Thanks guys. Very attractive guitars - especially at the prices!! So much so, I ordered two - the Bass Vi and the 3-burst Strat with the "gold" fittings. Both turned up yesterday as promised and I have played them both quite a bit during the past 24 hours. Some background, although never a professional, I played in bands from 1965 till 2011 and was still solo gigging in 2017 when, unfortunately, severe tinnitus and stiffening fingers made me give up. I sold off all my electric guitars which included three Custom Shop Strats, a Gibson L4, Les Paul and J-200 as well as several acoustics and just retained one acoustic to noodle with at home. I still have my Fender Blues Deluxe Mk III and pedal board - simply because no one wanted to buy them!! These Squiers looked perfect to re-enthuse some electric noodling at home and dusting off my multi-track Tascam unit (also bought from Andersons!). On the whole I am pleased with the two new guitars but agree with several other KZbin videos I have seen on the Squier Bass Vi in particular. The intonation of the lower E is not good and almost im[possible to sort with the bridge supplied. I have seen several videos recommending fitting a Staytrem unit as an upgrade. Secondly the strings fitted - wire round, make an incredibly squeaky sound unless pretty well all the treble is rolled off and are really too light for the guitar, at least the lower strings - the low E really has very little tension making it very hard to get a clean note. I see many Bass VI players recommend LaBella 767-6F Bass VI Stainless Flats - 26-95 for this instrument - I now have a set on order! When using the "whammy" bar there is a really annoying rattle as the bar has a slightly loose fit into the socket and when I use it this is picked up through the pick-ups and is amplified by the amp. Only one day in and I have not had any issues with the tuners but I have seen a few players reporting issues which required them to replace the ones suppled with Klusons. Yes, the instrument is at a very good price and, I think, has great potential but I do feel many buyers will find the need to spend almost as much again on upgrades and professional set-up work to really make it a joy to play. So far I have spent more time with the Bass VI than the SRV inspired Strat. Now, it may be the SRV influence but "out of the box" I found the whammy unit unusable. It is hard down on the body and took considerable force to be able to use it to dip the strings. I guessed there were 5 springs attached and on all my previous Strats took two off to allow both up and down movement. I was therefore surprised to find only three under the plate. I took one off which allowed easier dipping but there was still nothing to allow an upward pull. Are the springs heavier than those fitted to Fender's regular Strats? I notice the strings fitted are very light - possibly .010 on top? I prefer.011s but aren't going to change them until I am satisfied with the guitar overall. I think the frets could do with dressing and good set-up but otherwise this does seem a good value instrument. Just my personal observations from several hours playing these guitars. Perhaps, after twenty years with Custom Shop instruments I am expecting too much from these very inexpensive examples!!!

[@hampuspersson6509]

Hot damn Captain! You’ve really stepped up your guitar skills!

[@joevalente8451]

At 14:00, you hit it on the head, you really can go crazy on upgrades, but, if you choose wisely, you end up with spectacular results: I bought the (Danish Pete) purple FSR Tele and it was okay, but a bit too acoustic-sounding, and, frankly, I could not handle how bad the tuning got as I played chords up the neck. I swapped the pickups (Duncan La Brea), bridge saddles (Wilkinson compensated), new Grover tuners, an Oak-Grigsby 4-way switch, and CTS pots, and I shielded the whole thing with copper tape. I have almost as much into the parts as I did into the guitar, but I ended up with a Tele for which tele players (I'm traditionally a Les Paul player) want to trade me their far more expensive Fenders. And I ended up with exactly what I wanted -- essentially a fully-custom tele -- for way-too-much-money-for-a-Squier, but still maybe 1/3 of what it would have cost me to spec it out and have it built from scratch. Plus, it's purple. Nothing sounds better on a tele than purple.

[@figjam9530]

i got a contemporary tele couple months ago. i wanted a "non traditional" tele for playing rock and metal and it is PERFECT for what i wanted it for. i would have preferred the white but my local music store had the blue-grey so that's what i got. it needs some better tuners but everything else about it is perfect.

[@elcookiemonsteru]

@@figjam9530 Totally agree on the tuners, they suck. I switch them for Fender Locking tuners..perfect guitar now :D But i think i would be fine witht he ones from harley benton, the fender ones are too expensive, i think.
