Exploring The Squier Contemporary Stratocaster Models | Fender

Description
The Squier® Contemporary Stratocaster® Special HT brings modern features and bold aesthetics to an iconic Fender platform to satisfy today’s most discerning and daring players. At the heart of this guitar is a set of Squier SQR™ alnico single-coil pickups positioned in a special configuration with the middle pickup near the bridge pickup for a unique variety of dynamically responsive settings. The roasted maple neck was chosen for its optimal tone and stability, and a sculpted heel design allows for improved access all the way to the 22nd fret. High-performance components round out the feature list and include a string-through-body hardtail bridge for ideal body resonance, and a set of sealed-gear tuning machines with split shafts for smooth tuning action and easy restringing. Eye-catching styling cues include stealthy black hardware and a sleek painted headstock with chrome logos for a premium look. Case sold separately.

    The guitars (I bought two of them) were flawless cosmetically and sound great! I did have to file the frets on one of them since a few of them were sharp. I also had so set them up since I like real low action but I do that on all my guitars, Even my American PRS'S. Impressed overall.
