    I've been playing for about 4 years and I mostly just play in my bedroom so this is all I need. My first electric was a Squier strat that came in the pack with the fender frontman 10G and this Squier is noticeably better that that one. Might not seem like much of an upgrade but I think the quality is much higher. Great smooth feeling on the neck, the sound is clear, no buzzing, stays in tune even when I use the tremolo, and it came set up great right out of the box. The humbucker gives a nice thick sound when you put some gain on it. The color is super cool too. The only issue is that the tremolo bar that came with mine was very difficult to twist into the hole, so I use a tremolo I bought online that works just fine with the guitar. Definitely recommend

    it's actually the color it advertises, it came quickly, and it's extremely high quality for its price.

    Took the guitar out of the box and the whole front had scratches all over, so this is more on Fender/Squier than Guitar Center. It's superficial, but still disappointing. Also does not come with a cable to connect to an amp, so you'll have to buy one separately. Still excited to play!
