General

The Classic Vibe Series includes a range of affordable vintage Stratocaster and Telecaster models produced by Fender's daughter company, Squier. These electric guitars are characterised by a classic sound and look and cater perfectly to ambitious beginners or intermediate guitarists. This affordable Fender-inspired Strat in Candy Apple Red offers a characteristic finish and that well-rounded, powerful Alnico bark.

The Classic Vibe 60s Stratocaster: Classic Style

In addition to the colour finish on the body, the tinted maple neck and off-white pegs further contribute to the vintage feel of the instrument, which Squier have mounted with three Alnico single-coils for a classically fat, fast and high-output sound. The pickup poles have even been slightly raised to the optimal height, for a perfect sound balance between each of the strings.

The Squier Brand

Stratocaster and Telecaster guitars and the Precision and Jazz bass guitars are still the most famous Fender models. They have already been copied numerous times by many manufacturers and in various price ranges. To be able to offer a reliable and attractive alternative for beginners, in 1982, Fender established Squire. Ever since, Squier guitars and bass guitars have been built to Fender specifications and under the supervision of Fender themselves.

Wrote the following about Squier Classic Vibe 60s Stratocaster Candy Apple Red

Geweldige gitaar. Fijne smalle hals en licht in gewicht. Kleur is ook mooier dan gedacht maar dat is voor ieder zijn eigen smaak. Mooie jaren 60 gitaar. Zeer prettig om op te spelen.

Ik zocht naar een gitaar met een clean sound voor een beperkt budget. Dit is het resultaat. Ik had niet meteen een klik met deze gitaar, totdat ik met anderen ging jammen. Daar werd duidelijk dat deze gitaar mij nooit in de steek laat. Ja, ik ben er blij mee!
