There is arguably no electric guitar more ingrained in modern culture than the Fender Stratocaster. Its contoured body, innovative tremolo bridge, and a sparkling trio of single-coil pickups combine in an instrument that has been embraced by players of all genres since it appeared in the 1950s. Fender has been making high quality, low-cost instruments under the Squier brand since the early 1980s. Squier instruments are widely known to be exceptional value for money, meaning you can own a classic without breaking the bank!
The Squier Affinity Series Stratocaster Electric Guitar features a solid alder body with a bolt-on maple neck with a rosewood fretboard. Pure vintage tone comes pounding out of 3 biting single-coil pickups, taking on flavour from a classic rocking tremolo and 5-way switching. Genuine die-cast tuners provide unprecedented tuning stability in this price range. The headstock is the classic ’70s “big” style. The maple neck plays fast and feels great. The Affinity Strat represents the best value in solid-body electric guitar design, and when you trade up, it will be worth far more than any no-name copy.
