Squier Classic Vibe '60s Stratocaster - Lake Placid Blue Review

Bang for buck!

The neck on this axe is perfection. Nice and thick and fits my hand perfectly. I bought a demo and it was basically flawless. I wouldn't have noticed the tiny imperfections without Sweetwater pointing them out. I doubt anyone else will ever notice them either. I will say out of the box it wasn't great. The frets were gritty, the nut needed sanding and the truss rod was off.… read more Luckily I've learned to set-up guitars and after a couple hours work this is the best strat I've owned. Better than my MIM and player plus strats. Also the blue is gorgeous and gets compliments constantly. Lastly customer service was top notch. Highly recommend this axe!

Squier Classic Vibe! I mean Classy-ic Vibe!

I'm a Les Paul guy but when i realized I need something that i can used versatility wise, this guitar didn't let me down. It's the very first strat that i fell in loved with! It came really nice with major setup. Sweetwater did it really great with the setup. Sweetwater did really great setting it up and the package was very secured! I decided to make this as my main guitar when… read more i play in the church. So far I've only used it once but the sound is very good that i can't even put it down. So kudos to squier and Sweetwater for making another costumer very happy! I would recommend this guitar and sweetwater to everyone who's looking for a mid range or even higher caliber guitar!

My First Stratocaster

I had this on my wish list for X-Mas as I have never owned a Strat and thought this would give me a good feel for one without going "all-in" for something I may not like. Wow is all I can say. All the hype about the classic vibe line is the real deal. Great tone, action, playability etc. I wish we had these options for guitars when I was a teenager.... You wont be disappointed

My First Strat

I've been a Les Paul guy for about 8 years now. However, I have played some strats and enjoyed them and finally decided to commit to one. I must say that this guitar surpassed my expectations. This baby is a true strat regardless of the name on the headstock. It has all of the versatility and sounds amazing in all five pickup configurations. On top of the great sound and feel, the… read more placid blue color is absolutely beautiful in person. The product pictures don't do it justice (which says a lot since they are still great).

My very First Strat and it is Awesome!

Was hesitant buying this gear, to solve that, I research about squire(the company itself). Who are they and how they came to be this brand. Long story short, this company is making good products and if your looking for your first strat this will not disappoint at all, buy this coz the classic vibe series are awesome, and they are made in Indonesia). Love the PU, the finish and… read more the color, wow! Do not look at the headstock coz it does not matter (it is you who makes the guitar sound awesome, and the effects you use, NOT THE HEADSTOCK), feel the guitar at your local store and you will be surprise how well this is built (honestly, you will not need a MiM or American made coz this is enough). Kudos to David Winkert for always answering my queries, appreciate your patience man!
