Here for sale we have a Squier Classic Vibe ‘70s Stratocaster in Black. Made in Indonesia in 2021, this guitar features a bolt-on construction comprising a Poplar body, Maple neck and 21 fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include a 6-point tremolo, Close-Gear vintage style tuning machines and Aftermarket Pearloid pickguard. A trio of Squier single-coil pickups are wired to a 5-way pickup selector, Master Volume, Tone control for the neck and a tone control for the bridge and middle pickups.
The Maple neck plays very well, with the 'C' profile offering a smooth and responsive playing experience. Certainly, the profile promotes ergonomic thumb positioning and speedy fretting across the register, whilst still retaining the character you would expect from a '70s Strat. The Rosewood fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers, and with its nice tight grain and dark appearance provides a smooth and durable playing surface right the way up the register. The 9.5" radius works in tandem with the narrow tall frets to enhance the feel of string bending and vibrato techniques.
The trio of single-coil pickups deliver traditional Stratocaster tones in spades. Everything from sparkling cleans to gritty leads and crunchy rock rhythm parts are available, with the familiar Stratocaster controls providing endless tonal possibilities. The neck pickup is warm and round, with plenty of power to push your solo tones to the front of the mix. There are plenty of funky sounds to be found in the middle position, whilst the bridge position provides the Fender 'Twang' we all know and love. A fantastic instrument for any level of player.
