sounded good,and i didnt mind the finish.i bet squier/fender do the same with these as with the early chinese classic vibes,considered higher quality than the current indonesian classic vibes.they will get lots of good reviews,sell a boatload,then they will cheapen further,and move production to indonesia,once the model is established

I think that might be the default routing for all strats. I have a 2018 HH "metal" strat that I ripped apart. It started with the 2 humbuckers, and it had the HSH routing just as yours does. I'm replacing with HSS.

I got mine yesterday in the sunburst. I'm in my 60's, a jazz player and normally play on large jazz boxes like D'Angelico New Yorker, ES175 etc. I also own a Gibson 335 and a Fender Telecaster. I saw a review on here a couple days ago and thought why not for just $120? I'm really shocked at the great quality at this price. I'll have to put some better quality and heavier gauge strings on it. I think these come with 9's installed. On a guitar like this I would prefer 10s like on my Tele. I have to get a accustomed to this neck, compared to my jazz boxes it feels like I'm playing on a broom stick because it is thin in comparison, but well crafted and plays nicely. The satin finish in sunburst is nice and has a certain understated elegance to it. It sounds pretty good through a Twin Reverb. I don't really do much distortion. it's a keeper.

I just got one in black. Electronics tone volume and pup selecter works great and fretends are smooth! Action was set low that’s another good thing. Whammy works tuners work. And it stays in tune just about as long as any other guitar I’ve ever had. So I can’t really say that’s an issue because every single godamn guitar I’ve ever had goes out of tune after I’m done abusing it. I 😂😂don’t do Floyd rose.

Honestly, they have to. I know Fender owns brands like Jackson which do those super cheap guitars, but Jacksons don't say Fender on them anywhere, so a younger guitarist might never consider buying an expensive Fender when they get older, so without a cheap guitar to compete with the Amazon brands, Fender is shooting themselves in the foot.

I bought a slick SL60 in like 2019 I think as a first guitar. I took it to a luther friend and he was really impressed with the setup as delivered. It's good quality hardware all around a good guitar. However, im hesitant to recommend buying a guitar online. If you go to a music store and just see how a few feel, even not knowing how to play you'll probably notice some just are more comfortable than others. My slick is still really good but I bought a Tanglewood acoustic and a fender squire at guitar center that are much more comfortable for me. I struggle to say why but they both just feel better and do more to encourage me to keep learning despite my lack of talent 😅

Very interesting, the Squier Bullet series, you could get for less than $100 a few years ago with a high gloss finish that were manufactured in Indonesia. I recently bought Sonic H-S-S stratocaster and a Squier Affinity H-S-S stratocaster that were both in the same price range but I found that the Sonic which was made in Indonesia was set up better than the Affinity that was made in China and had better fret work. Nicely presented but I think if Squier wants to compete, they need to up their game with the finish.

I bought this! I have to say, it's better than any guitar I've ever owned for the bell tones. Yes, it has that classic quack, but isn't quiet like the old ones. Or course I leveled the frets, that's just something you know you're probably going to have to do with a cheap guitar, but that's no big deal since I'm also a guitar tech and have the tools to do it easily. I absolutely fell in LOVE with this guitar. Used it as my primary guitar for stage. Felt like silk under my fingers. It was an absolute pleasure to play. No, not getting paid for saying it either. The thing was, I didn't like the look, so I replaced the pick guard and changed out the hardware for gold. Some nice vintage gold knobs even and it looks as good as it sounds. I have the exact same color as the pics in the video-golden sunburst (or whatever you call it.) It's a piece of artwork in all ways. I didn't even need to change the pickups at all.

Thanks for the video, Richard. I agree that Fender is stepping up their game from sheer need. Those barely known companies who have been selling cheap guitars have really been giving Fender and Squier fits. For instance, last year I shopped in a reasonably intelligent manner and scored a pair of Donner DST-400s. They cost more than the Squier you just reviewed, but they are considerably higher in value than the Squier. Where it has a poplar body, the Donners use alder, the bridge pickup is a humbucker, and the vibrato is a 2-post version rather than a 6-screw (I don't like those). The only functional upgrade I did was putting roller saddles on the bridges to help with tuning stability. Those and the cosmetic upgrades have left the total cost of the guitars and their upgrades under $250. I don't doubt that that Squier is worth its price, especially for players with setup skills and tools, but Fender and Squier need to continue raising the level of their game, because Donner and similar brands have raised the bar in the affordable instrument market!

I now have a modest arsenal of 7 guitars, including 3 Squires. 2 Telecasters and 1 Strat. After doing some "magic" on them, I'm truly happy with the way that they turned out. With modern manufacturing technology, inexpensive guitars are miles ahead of where they where 20 years ago!

Yes, that's the one fatal problem with this guitar, and many cheap guitars, is that the necks are thick.If you don't mind it then it's a great modding platform where you can replace pickups, saddles, tunning pegs if you like down the road. Otherwise, most critics have found that the frets were level and fret ends were smooth. I think you can even replace the trem with a short block from GFS. Because it is squire, you can probably get a HSH pickgard from Warmoth and put whatever pickups you want. You probably can replace the neck if the frets wear down.

It’s sorta resin-saturated “grocery sack paper”, but Martin Guitars uses it a lot so it’s cool. 2.) Fesley FLP400 39” camouflage LP, HH, 3-way, 2V/1T, D-profile, poplar body, mahogany neck, (HPL fingerboard?) 3.) Volgoa VSR-1 flame maple blue-white gradient strat, HH, roasted maple satin neck, 24 ball-end medium stainless steel frets; tremolo; mahogany body, maple neck, rosewood or HPL fingerboard;

Replace the nut with a TUSQ one and put some Hipshot locking tuners on it. Since Squier uses smaller headstock holes, You”ll need to ream the holes a little larger on the headstock to accept standard sized Fender tuning machines.

They had to do something to compete and it sounded good.

Not an amazon exclusive. Here in Indonesia we have tokopedia, and many people there sells it.

Just got the red Squire , loving the matt red ox finish , great for the money , slightly unhappy with the thicker neck, but hey its a fender , neck is coming off and off to the shed to slimline this sucker, done a few before, overall a great guitar thanking you for the video , OLD MAN FROM UK :)

Interesting for sure. I thought those high value guitars you've been featuring would make the big 2 lower their prices. Instead they come out with a new series!

Thing I like about this the most is the satin finish. Wish this was standard options on the expensive versions...

Exactly, why pay more ?

Best part about this is that some people don't trust any other brand. Or they just don't want them, it has to be a fender product. This solves that issue. And ofc, just having that logo guarantees some level of trust and makes it a no brainer gift from parents to their kids. If I was a youngster again, this would've been a contender for my first guitar. Instead, I got the Harley Benton ST-20 like 15ish~~ years ago.
