Squier FSR Classic Vibe 50s Stratocaster Electric Guitar, Maple FB, Daphne Blue

From Hendrix to Clapton, Mark Knopfler to John Meyer, the Fender Stratocaster has, since its introduction in 1954, been the number one guitar of choice of thousands of great guitarists past and present. It is considered by many to be THE classic solid body electric guitar with its smooth body curves, tonal dexterity, and expressive vibrato fitting comfortably into all musical genres. Fender have been making high quality , budget priced instruments under the Squier brand since the early 1980's. The Squier Classic Vibe Series reflects that commitment to excellence and value. Based on vintage Fender designs, the Classic Vibe instruments are not meant to be be period or vintage correct - but are designed to give off the "vibe" of a classic Fender design. Each model has a distinctive set of features, making a classic looking instrument with great sound, and unbeatable value. The Squier Classic Vibe Stratocaster '50s provides unmistakable '50s-era Fender vibe and tone. The alder body has a two-colour Sunburst finish; the vintage-tint gloss-maple neck has a maple fingerboard with 21 medium-jumbo frets and a modern 9.5 radius. That long-familiar tone comes from a custom set of alnico III single-coil pickups-clear and bright, with terrific sustain even in crunch mode. Custom staggered pole pieces provide improved string-to-string balance.
