    Stunning finish (chocolate burst)! Neck is comfortable with smooth edges and well finished frets. No sharp edges. Pickups are great with a tremendous selection of tones available. Really a Tele in a Strat body. Was leaning toward a Nashville Tele but I made the right choice. A professional grade instrument at a bargain price! As part of the Paranormal series I advice getting one while they're available. Highly recommended.

    So far I've really been enjoying this purchase! It's an excellent choice, capable of a great diversity of sound if you can only have one guitar. The Aztec gold finish on it is stunning. I did have to exchange my first order due to issues with the output jack, the 2nd works great!

  • Great Guitar

    Love this guitar. Amazing sounds. No need for a setup, it was perfect right out of the box. Neck is fantastic. Action is low with no buzz. Even string amplification, no high and low sounds. Highly recommended. Best of both worlds. Tele and Strat sounds from one guitar.

    The Nashville Stratocaster is an excellent guitar. The neck is shockingly good for a Squier with nice gloss finish and perfectly blended frets. It has so many tone options it can cover a lot of different kinds of music. The best thing though is the feel, I can barely put it down.
