Here for sale we have a Squier Contemporary Stratocaster Special HT in Pearl White finish. Made in China in 2021, this guitar features a bolt-on construction consisting of a Poplar body, a Roasted Maple neck and 22 Jumbo fret Laurel fingerboard. This instrument is fitted with a 6-Saddle String-Through-Body Hardtail With Block Saddles and a set of sealed tuning machines. The pickups in this guitar are a trio of Squier SQR Alnico Single-Coils configured in a HS format, these are wired to a 5-way blade selector, master volume and a master tone.
 
The Roasted Maple neck sits comfortably in the hand, the "C" profile is slender, filling the hand nicely for a smooth and articulate playing experience up and down the neck along with the Satin Urethane finish. Primed for high performance, energetic riffing and blazing leads, the 12" radius Laurel fingerboard has 22 Jumbo frets assisting with string bends and vibrato techniques, delivering a tailored playing experience in any position, whilst offering a nice balance between comfortable chord playing and practicality for quick lead lines. The Hardtail bridge keeps things simple offering the player great tuning stability for any kind of progressive style of playing thrown at it.
 
The Squier SQR Alnico Single-Coils pickups deliver rich harmonics, cutting highs and snarling mids in spades. The bridge pickups provide a fat and punchy humbucker-like sound, making power chords sound gritty, whilst also providing soaring lead tones with broad tonal dynamics. However, with subtler amp settings the bridge offers a bright, glassy clean tone making harmonics sing with a bell like tonality. The middle position provides bright trebles and full warm bass, and lends itself well to rhythm tones. The neck pickup offers a smooth, warm, rounded tone that handles distorted tones as well as it handles clean tones.
