Great guitar
Style: 60s Color: 3-Color Sunburst
Im not anywhere close to being a pro at guitar but this guitar is great. I put some Stevie Ray Vaughn pickups in it amd it sounds great. The feel is awesome, I just love everything about this guitar. And it looks great on my living room wall and its ready to go right out of the box. It was a little more than I wanted to pay at first, but after playing it I have no regrets. ... show more

It's simply a great guitar
Style: 60s Color: 3-Color Sunburst
I've been looking at this guitar for a while and there were none in my area to check out so I took the risk and just bought it on amazon. I'm glad I did. This guitar checked all the boxes for what I was looking for in a strat and without paying 5x the price for an American original 60's model. I picked up a fender player's series stratocaster recently and I did not love it. I got this because it had the vintage style tremolo that lays flat on the body (which is the way it comes btw) and because i love the look of the 60's style stratocasters. The attention to detail and craftsmanship of this guitar is very good; I'd argue even better than my made-in Mexico player stratocaster. Sure there are some minor bits and bobs that could be improved upon, but as far as the general construction, it is SOLID. Neck: The laurel fingerboard is pleasantly dark and looks very similar to rosewood. The fretboard is lightly rolled over for a played-in feel and is very comfortable. The fret ends are dressed nicely and not pokey at all (can't say the same for that other more expensive strat I bought recently). I'm usually not a fan of high gloss finish on the back of a guitar neck but I think I'll get along with it just fine. Body: The body has a nice even weight and the finish is flawless. For my sunburst version, I see that they used a veneer on the top and back to make it look like a one-piece body and I'm absolutely okay with that because it looks great. You can't tell until you look under the backplate. The neck fits snugly into the body with no excess space in between. Components: The tuners are great and I don't see myself replacing them unless they break. The pickups are good enough, they might be the only thing I change but I would gig them as is. The bridge pickup is coming out at an angle, but I can fix that myself when I get the chance to lift up the pickguard. Knobs and switches work fine. Setup: I wouldn't ever expect a guitar coming from overseas to arrive with a good setup. Just take it to a reputable tech and get it set up right away if you can't do it yourself. It arrived decently set up but needed a truss rod adjustment and a few teaks to the saddles. The nut is cut pretty well but could be dialed in a little better. Overall, it's a really good guitar. Not "good for the price", it's just good and the low price is an added benefit. I don't know where these bad reviews are coming from, but for my made in 2021 (made in Indonesia) model, it is great. I have a few custom and USA guitars that cost 6-8x more than this guitar and I see myself having just as much fun on this one. ... show more

Great guitar at a reasonable price
Style: 60s Color: Candy Apple Red
Wasn't sure about ordering some thing like this from Amazon but it really paid off. Received this guitar TWO DAYS after I placed the order. Came in perfect condition except for a small smudge on the lower bout that came right off with baby oil. I was a little leary about the Squier thing but the quality is impressive. It plays great right out of the box after tuning up. I owned a Mexican-built HSS Strat for many years but I think this model beats it in terms of quality and playability. Don't let the made in Indonesia thing bother you - I own an Indonesian-built dreadnought acoustic that almost rivals the old Martin D-18 I once owned. Hats off to Fender on this one! ... show more

Awesome Premium Budget Guitar
Style: 60s Color: 3-Color Sunburst
This guitar is in the category of budget, knowing this, this series of Squier Classic Vibe is really really nice, this would be more in the realm of Premium Budget, great solid body and great neck, hardware is the one thing that declares budget, but good. If you're looking for a Great budget platform to start with I Strongly recommend this Guitar, plenty of room for upgrades, that's what I've done, Great Great budget guitar. ... show more

Great guitar but with a few issues
Style: 60s Color: 3-Color Sunburst
Beautiful finish. Sounds great. And overall plays great. However, there is one sticky fret that traps the high E string and the volume control has a very strange contour. Reduced from 10 to 9 cuts the volume by HALF(!) and from 10 to 8 by 80%. Had to put a piece of felt under the volume knob to lock it at 10 because it spins too easily and cuts the volume if you accidentally brush it while playing. I might have expected things like this on the lower lines but not this one. ... show more

Good for beginners in music
Style: 60s Color: 3-Color Sunburst
Dont even buy a fender strat just buy this squier because it sounds and plays like a normal fender it's smooth and color and weight is the same as a fender and I recommend this for beginners looking to be like Srv or Eric Clapton

Great Value for an entry level instrument.
Style: 60s Color: 3-Color Sunburst
I was at first reluctant to get one of these as Squire/Fender has replaced the rosewood fretboards on these models with Indian laurel. That said the tone and playability of the classic vibe series makes these guitars very desirable. The neck is just so incredibly smooth and looks of the guitar as a whole are very cool. The pickups, especially the neck and middle position are very glassy and have all the quack one expects from a strat. That said they are on the pricey side for an import strat, so probably wait for a sale, or try and find a used one on reverb. ... show more

Beautiful guitar!
Style: 60s Color: Lake Placid Blue
The body is beautiful, and sounds nice after a small set up. The neck feels great and looks nice. The bridge is the same thickness as the bridge in my MIM stratocaster. I wouldn't recommend this one to beginners due to the tuners. Vintage style tuners can be tricky if you haven't used them before. This would be a great modding platform as well. ... show more
