Review: Bargain Squier Tele! - Straight out of the box, no damage, just needed a tune up, no fret-buzz and it feels just like my high end guitars Squier has a great budget guitar making team I don't know how they do it? I did buy the debut version but sent it back because it had fret-buzz... and I think for the extra £15 this is as good feels like my Squier Contemporary telecaster and not much difference in weight but I have humbuckers on my Contemporary tele... but I own a high end Stratocaster and this Sonic tele fits right in intonation is great and the only difference is that it has one fret less though not an issue for £149 I have bought new bridge saddles (copper) and will be getting some nice Fender or Danny Gatton style pickups (in time) first I'm sure going to enjoy this one how Squier do such good work for this price? Wow frets are smooth, I think they saved a bit on the body as it is a few mm (5-7mm) thinner than my Contemporary tele. But it's definitely a bargain!!!
Review: Really great value quality guitar - I bought this guitar after about 20 years of regret from selling a Squier Silver Series Strat Japanese build! The guitar is really well made and sounds very nice. All the switches and knobs move nice and smooth and feel solid. Some people have reported blemishes and marks on the guitars they have had but mine was flawless. At first I thought there were marks on the pick guard but then realised there's there were two layers of protective film covering it. One thing I would point out is that my neck doesn't have the skunk stripe that is shown in the images of the guitar. After reading up there's divided opinion. Some people think a guitar with a skunk stripe is a sign of better build quality but others say that if there's a solid maple neck and fingerboard then a skunk stripe isn't needed (apparently it's just there to cover up where a router has taken out a strip of the neck to attach a fixing bolt). Just something to be aware of if you have a strong opinion on this as I've heard some people when looking at a guitar will turn it round, see there's no skunk stripe and immediately discount it
