Squier Contemporary HSS Stratocaster Electric Guitar, RW FB, Ocean Blue Metallic

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, so now anybody can afford to play a genuine Strat.

Inspired by the Fender Contemporary series of the 1980s, today's Squier Contemporary Stratocaster HSS means that a rock-ready "superstrat" can be yours without breaking the bank. Two high-gain ceramic single coils and an eye-catching "zebra" supercharged ceramic humbucker dispense everything from compressed '80s cleans and soaring leads to unrelenting crunch. Lead players will enjoy exploring the Contemporary Strat HSS's quick, comfortable maple neck, with a 12" radiused rosewood fretboard flattening out toward the body ideal for faster playing styles. Jumbo frets make bends and vibratos a breeze to. For a rocking axe that is a joy to play with inspiring tones to match, check out the Squier Contemporary Strat HSS.
