  • Amazing Tele that sounds great out of the box
Color: Butterscotch Blonde Style: Telecaster
I can put this one down it’s become my go-to guitar. I’ve been a Squier fan for many years and this one lives up to my expectations. The packaging was secure and well-packed to ensure no dings. The neck plays very well and action was great right out of the box. No truss rod adjustment needed at all. Frets are smooth with no jagged ends. The neck is a satin- finished, slim C shape and body finish is astounding- beautiful butterscotch blonde with a beautiful gloss. This has a belly cut that makes it very comfortable to play. The bridge is a modern style vs the ashtray style. I prefer the one on this because it’s easier rest my palm. The modern bridge saddles make intonation and string height adjustments easy. The strings also go through the body, which adds a more full, crisp sound. The tuners are good and there weren’t any issues. I put D’Addario locking autotrim tuners on all my guitars but if I couldn’t the stock ones would be ok as they are. FYI - the D’Addario tuners I mentioned require no drilling and are direct drop-ins. The nut is synthetic bone and I found no issues with spacing. The pickups are ok and most will be happy with them. However I put in noiseless single coils. Most people love Squiers because they’re also great modding platforms and this one is no different but this one can stand on its own just as it is stick. Very fast comfy neck, decent pickups, and a great finish make this one a winner. ... show more

  • Good for price point, leaves something to be desired
Color: Butterscotch Blonde Style: Telecaster
Budget guitars are always very hit or miss, but I've found this one to be strangely in between the two. The sound can be good or bad and tends to stray more in the direction of having good quality, but it also occasionally rings out even when you don't want it to (as is the way with single coil pickups). The main reason I dropped a star off of this though was actually because of the string gauge, I really hate that Fender likes to ship with 9 gauge strings. Thicker strings are way easier to play and snap less frequently, although that being said for the price point of this guitar I think the strings behave fairly well. I've experimented with a few other cheaper guitars, and to compare it to an Ibanez Gio I worked with before: -This has better overall sound quality but experiences more issues with ringing out because of its exclusively single coil pickups, however this can often be solved by pickup-switching to have both single-coils engaged -This guitar is a little tougher to play because of its thinner strings -Bends are much harder to perform on this guitar in my experience, but sustains and slides I've found to be a bit easier because of the string quality -Telecasters look awesome. Overall I'd give this guitar a 8.5/10, but if you're looking for something to shred on I would avoid this at all costs. As someone used to playing with humbuckers it was a little strange to get acclimated to this, however if you're seeking out a specific kind of tone from single-coils and at a cheaper price, I'd absolutely shoot for this guitar. ... show more

  • Shockingly outstanding!!
Color: Butterscotch Blonde Style: Telecaster
I've been playing guitar for 55 years or so and owned mostly American Standard Strats and a few Made-In-Mexico Strats, one American Standard Telecaster and one Made-in-Mexico Telecaster. And I bought this 2024 "Made In China" Fender Squier Affinity Butterscotch Blonde Telecaster new for $249 from Amazon. Straight out of the box, I checked out the quality build of this guitar from top to bottom and front to back. Not a single flaw in the build. Beautiful Butterscotch Blond glossy finish on the body, satin smoothe finish on the maple neck, and the frets were nicely finished. I checked it for "fret buzz" because it seemed to be set with a lower than usual string height from the factory. No hint of fret buzz. Also, all 6 strings were perfectly intonated. I usually have to adjust string height lower and set the intonation on all new Fender guitars. This one came in perfect condition! And it plays as butter smoothe as any other Fender guitar I have ever known! It also sounds amazing. No complaints from me...all praise!! WOW! ... show more

  • Value and quality build for the price.
Color: Butterscotch Blonde Style: Telecaster
Excellent value for the money. The Butterscotch Blonde is nice and smooth. The maple neck and fret board have a nice slick satin finish. No dings or dents anywhere. Frets were smooth with no sprouting. Tuning machines are stable and turn smoothly. The six saddle bridge did need some set up, which is to be expected. Raising and lowering to match fretboard radius, as well as setting intonation. A six saddle bridge isn't a traditional three saddle ashtray Tele bridge but it allows for much finer adjustments. String through body with what feels like . 10s string gauge wise. Running through my Deluxe 112 Reverb or teal stripe Peavey Classic Chorus 212 with no effects... sounds great. "Sustain for days" and classic Tele sound. The belly cut was a nice unexpected bonus as most Teles are slab style. I think Squier did quite a nice job with this Affinity Series. Have been playing guitar for over 30 years, always Stratocasters, and had always wanted a Tele. Other folks may have a different experience but the one I received was great. Only complaint I have is that it that was "crafted in China". ... show more

  • Worth every penny!
Color: Butterscotch Blonde Style: Telecaster
Great guitar!!! I put on heavier strings (10's), and then dabbed a little graphite on the nut to ease string binding. Now it tunes up perfectly. Intonation is close to being right on. I'm going let the guitar settle in before spending time fine tuning the intonation. Sounds fantastic through an old silver face Princeton! I'll never say it's as good as a "Real Tele" but that's not the issue...the issue is "is it worth what I paid for it"... The answer to that it is...Yes! Worth every penny! ... show more

  • Nice Guitar
Color: Butterscotch Blonde Style: Telecaster
Just received yesterday. Overall it is a nice guitar. Only 2 issues out of the box. The first being the frets are sharp on the edges, will have to smooth them up and the other is the volume control knob is not seating properly and rubs on one side, will adjust accordingly. Other than that, it is a nice guitar for the price and highly recommend it. ... show more

  • Unbelievably well made. In Indonesia.
Color: Butterscotch Blonde Style: Telecaster
The only thing that makes this tele any less than $1K+ telecasters is the lack of a 22nd fret. It looks great, it plays great, I play in open E, so I had to adjust the bridge--it has 6 posts, not the very had to intonate original 3 posts--the action was high and the truss rod need a turn to tighten. The sound is vintage tele, as bright and bell like as any I have played or listen to. I got this just cause it seemed to good to be true, but I had the time and scratch to find out. I can not put it down, it is much for so little. Ink In ... show more
