Squier Standard Stratocaster Candy Apple Red RW

Descrizione

It wouldn't be fair to call this Candy Apple Red Squier a good starter guitar (even though it is), because it is so much more than that. Advanced guitarists too will be able to appreciate this Squier Standard Stratocaster's sound and build quality. Its full-size body and comfortable neck give this guitar great playability while the three alnico pickups ensure an amazing Strat sound. Thanks to the 5-way pickup switch you can alternate between a selection of sounds, from the warm tone of the neck pickup to the bright bite of the bridge pickup. Naturally, this Squier features the out-of-phase position that gives you the familiar nasal Strat quack.

Construction:

The full-size body of this Squier Stratocaster is made of agathis, of which there is plenty in Asia. Agathis' tonal properties are comparable to those of mahogany, so the skimping isn't a quality issue. What's more, this instrument is equipped with an incredibly stable two-point floating tremolo vibrato unit, meaning that it is mounted with two screws, and that the arm can be pushed both up and down. Additionally, the maple neck features a 22-fret rosewood fretboard that gives this guitar a slightly warmer sound than a version with a maple fretboard would.

Full-size body:

Both the specs and the sound of this Squier Standard Stratocaster are nothing short of impressive, especially considering its low price. What's more, this guitar is the perfect subject for aftermarket upgrades as it has the exact same dimensions as the standard American Fender Stratocaster. Virtually all upgrades for a standard Fender Start are also applicable to this Squier guitar. Whether you're looking for a good entry-level guitar or a stage workhorse you can modify in the future, this Squier Standard Stratocaster is the perfect guitar for you.
