[@gavyrebeiro]

Loved the maple fret board, looks like the affinity fret board and colour. Loved the blue colour. The jack is also well placed. No string through so no trek as well. I suppose it’ll be a good carry on guitar. Would love to own one.

[@Mkemcz]

I played a mini strat in a guitar store. Felt like my first guitar when I was young, but I could approach it from a new perspective of being an experienced guitarist.

[@thechamp9696]

These are really great little guitars - much better quality than you would expect. Thanks for the video!

[@dugbert5]

StewMac makes a mini Tele DIY kit. I’d love to see you build one!

[@landonbailey]

I just took a look. that is awesome! maybe one day

[@dukenukembubblegum7311]

@@landonbailey I bought an built one, it’s a tough call. There no sustain, crap tuners so it always goes out. I mean I love playing on mine lol, but it took a lot of work to get it where I wantes

[@RJ-mz3co]

I tried a Squier Bullet Mustang HH: it is a 24" scale. It played very easily. So I imagine this would play similarly. I have fairly small hands, so the short scale might be good. Very nice. Thanks!

[@mariac5432]

It’s so nice that Squier/ Fender builds guitars like theses, perfect for kids and beginners, also for people who have small fingers.

[@ClarkW60]

The blue/white/maple looks mighty good. The neck pickup has a nice clean tone. I give it 8/10.

[@1Moonchild]

I watched this video a couple of weeks ago when I was looking into electric guitars that would be good for kids. Your helpful review sealed my decision to get a mini Strat for my grandson's 7th birthday. Got him the black with rosewood fretboard and he loves it. Thanks, Landon.

[@landonbailey]

glad to help cheers!

[@benstanbury]

How is he finding it after a month? I'm thinking the same for my 6yo... are you pleased with it?

[@1Moonchild]

@@benstanbury He's loving the mini Strat. He's taking lessons and eager to practice without being reminded. I think it's a good fit for younger kids. Would definitely recommend.

[@ipuya]

Would be great to see it side my side next to a it's big brother just to get a sense of the scale. Thanks for the review. I went to Amazon and seems it's sold out already.

[@landonbailey]

I think I may have to do that

[@DanDjurdjevicplus]

I’ve always wanted one of these to tune it to ADGCEA and use it as a soprano guitar. I reckon it would create a unique, sweet sound in the higher tuning.

[@joshv736]

Would it snap?

[@avalon1734]

I have a 1992 MIJ Fender MST32 Strat. 18" scale and tunes A to A. Quality wise it is miles ahead of the Squier mini. They have the same quality as any other MIJ licensed Fender Strat. Something to keep an eye out for.

[@andsothenilookedandsaid3650]

Captivating color scheme it has. A ways back I watched a video that my friend sent me of Amy Winehouse discussing guitars. And from what I remember she told a story about how when she was younger she bought a Daphne Blue Stratocaster to give to her brother for Christmas, but then she fell in love with it so much that she secretly kept it. That was poetic to me, and I feel like she was giving anyway in that she gave us all the gift of her sincere music. I bet she made good songs with that guitar. I discovered your channel looking up the mini Jazzmaster in the color of the retro Surf Green kitchen which I still think seems cool also. Somehow I feel there's still untapped potential in that model, even if it has some possible drawbacks that maybe add to the charm. Also there is something meaningful about retro kitchens of families and friends, as I lived in a house with 70s golden yellow appliances, and that memory is indelible in a positive way to me. But there's also something about this blue-- I can see songwritin' people writing their own classics on it. Anyway, thanks for the informative reviews, and cheers.

[@djwgates]

I bought one of these years ago. It sounds great and easy to play. I have kids and dogs in my house. I keep the good stuff in the cases tucked away in my closet. I use this one for casual playing and practice.

[@sonyajones]

You really got my interest in this guitar. That would be perfect as small as I am. Thanks for this video, Landon. Big thumbs up!

[@landonbailey]

hey Sonya! cheers

[@thisoneisonme]

Still surprised on how good this sounds for how small and cheap it is.

[@BeantownToBigD]

It's a great travel guitar. I brought one on a long vacation this summer. It would be a good guitar for mods and learning setups. Although I ended up returning it because it wouldn't stay in tune and deployed the refund $ into another guitar pedal.

[@landonbailey]

I thought of having it for travel

[@billytee8052]

Your deep dive videos are great. The mini strat looks good and sounds good

[@lisdad]

Impressive little guitar! I've never really given much thought to Squires before.

[@68halfcab]

Landon, Thank You for the plastic ripping at the end :)

[@landonbailey]

🤣👍

[@howdytoyer]

Great video. I dig your humor. lol I'm thinking of getting one of these for my wife, who has tiny hands. She lost a rasslin' match with my dreadnought the other day and now she wants to learn ukulele instead of guitar so I need to head that off. This might be just the thing. Thanks!

[@noahboucard4150]

The combination of the small sized instrument and this very cool color makes it looks so cute 💙

[@daveveranda765]

its been a while. i havent checked this fav channel for months but its good to be back here!

[@DXXFUS]

Absolutely love these things, I played a shell pink one at multiple stores.

[@2dazetake]

Surprised it stayed in tune,kicks butt on those mini epi LPs, I was able to salvage a great humbucker out of the little guy though, this mini strat sounds like an actual instrument,and not just a wall hanger,🎸go Landon go,can we still say that.🤣👍🇺🇸

[@rambleon2011]

Let’s go Brandon

[@JonManness]

I’m definitely getting my daughter a mini when she’s a little older, but also so I can play it 🤘

[@ArturoLopez-ky3qd]

I like taking things apart to learn how they function and this is a very nice video ,showing all the items that make up this nice guitar, thanks for the info.

[@SteveResor]

I cleaned and set up a Mini Strat for my friends Son. It's a really good guitar and Fun to play !! His is Red with the Output Jack on the front like a traditional Strat.

[@landonbailey]

Very cool! I think they just changed the jack recently. I don't know jack!

[@Journey-of-1000-Miles]

My Mini-Strat is also a hefty, little guy. The body is two 3/4 inch sheets of ply-wood, which are laminated together. “Tone ply-wood!”

[@rajvirsingh5754]

The colour is really eye catchy I like it

[@johnkoehler7955]

That's a swimming pool rout, make a huge humbucker... Lol... But call it the land-o-tron!

[@landonbailey]

😝

[@paullanglois3768]

I share your love of blue guitars. Daphne blue is on my list. Great deep dive Landon.

[@landonbailey]

Rock on!

[@davidesturaro2100]

The colour and the vibe are just gorgeous

[@edwardmcevoy8454]

I'm a fan of short scale guitars. Love my Taylor GS Mini!

[@trispytreems]

I love the waffling on about how many of these might be made 😂

[@joshuawebb9752]

I’m such a sucker for daphne blue, I love this little mini guitar!

[@tarantinoish]

I have no idea why I am watching this, but I like it. You’re a funny guy.

[@landonbailey]

appreciate it! 🎸👍

[@rajvirsingh5866]

That blue colour looks good plus that fretboard makes it look more cool

[@landonbailey]

ya I think it's a good combo

[@MrJBC-bv7ob]

Yeah, I'm definitely loving the Daphne from Scooby Doo color 👀

[@samstinkeringaround8961]

Very cool brother keep on shredding

[@jaydavidson]

Thanks for the review! Looking to get one of these for my daughters.

[@landonbailey]

Any time! except 3am Monday

[@manny7289]

Bought one of these when I first started. Quickly had to return it because it was too small for even my fingers

[@GuitarMav]

The colours coming out on the different squier lines are great.

[@asmongoldsmouth9839]

I'm buying one for my son. He wants me to teach him. The tuning machines are DEFINITELY getting changed out. Maybe grab some higher end grovers.

[@landonbailey]

👍🎸

[@maxpotter314]

actually looks like a cool addition for taking as a travel guitar

[@MalikAmer87]

I just fell in love with this color .

[@funkygamer2251]

Nice thanks for another video !!

[@landonbailey]

No problem 👍

I m here from the giveaway video, I found this channel like yesterday and holy shit this is perfect 😭😭

[@dddylan91]

I always like your deep dive videos, you give a lot of information with not pretentiousness.

[@aryagupta6905]

Wao this guitar is so beautiful 🤩. Thanks for your reviews 😉. You played it amazing 🔥🔥. The asmr at last was really very soothing 🙃

[@davidkastin4240]

Landons Blooper was he took off the volume and tone knobs 😂

[@MariaC.09]

She is so damn cute, I really enjoy playing on smaller instruments I have full size guitars but I always go back to my 3/4 classic bc it's so easy to play with

[@SirVicc]

This guitar would be very handy for the TV room. May actually practice with one of those.

[@andybungert]

As far as mini Teles there are those (hard to find) 4 string tenor teles which are neat. I am in love with the blue on maple color scheme of this one :) and the wood on the neck looks cool :)

[@Cmoth040]

It suddenly dawned on me... this is meant as a compliment. Your tone and meter of speech remind me of Bill Murray's character in Caddy Shack, particularly when he's telling his Dali Lama story, just a smarter version. It's like the line drive to the dome his character had to have taken at one point, never occurred. An alternate reality Carl.

[@landonbailey]

👍😆

[@yusuflarney6822]

Btw the asmr was definitely professional level quality 🤣

[@pjr114]

That's a nice little Strat.

[@englishdomino]

I feel like that's the ultimate finish for that guitar!

[@metalmig]

great video Landon ! i liked that Mini strat and Sounds good in my opinión!

this little thing looks like a modders dream! i like the shielding paint because the affinity tele i have doesn’t have any shielding paint at all

[@sicdyna]

I want one of these to carry in my work truck.

[@jimcamp2423]

I went with a Mitchell MS100 LP instead. 5 lbs light, N/B DCR 12/3/11/3 (Humbuckers). String thru Basswood body, 1 piece TOM saddle & no stop bar. Mitchell has a TD100 (Strat) & a MM100 (Super Strat) version.

[@jimcamp2423]

MS100 has the 22 fret 22.5 scale neck, HH. TD100 has the 22 fret 22.5 scale neck, HSS. MM100 has the 24 fret 22.5 scale neck, HH.

Rock on!

[@ewal8556]

These short scale guitars sound and play much better when you chuck a heavier set of strings on them I.e 10s or 11s. I prefer the short scale of the mini jazz master with 11s

[@landonbailey]

ya a few have mentioned that. cheers!

[@francoisfrenette9864]

Wow...I really like this blue color !!!!

[@arebee6910]

You know what. I coppef the samr guitsr only in a Gibson LesPaul version. It's a blast! I can only thus being similar in the fun I have experienced with my guitar. I'd love to have this to conpate it. I'll male videos to show it off!
