Description: The Squier® Classic Vibe Stratocaster® '50s is an electric guitar that leaves no doubt as to its true Fender® identity. With its cool finishes on an alder body and 21-fret vintage tint gloss maple neck, this beauty definitely has that '50s vibe. But you also get the modern playability of a 9.5" radius neck and medium jumbo frets. The tone is unmistakable as well, with a custom set of AlNiCo 3 single-coil pickups. This Squier® guitar's tone is clear and bright with terrific sustain even in crunch mode! Custom-staggered pole pieces provide improved string-to-string balance.
Classic Vibe! Back in 1982, the very first Squier® by Fender® guitars and basses came ringing out of Asia. Known for their excellent vintage-quality look, feel, sound and construction, those early Squier® instruments and their Fender® branded counterparts are now highly sought-after collector's items revered by guitar enthusiasts as models of "getting it right" while aiming at value-conscious players. The Squier® Classic Vibe Series reflects that simultaneous commitment to excellence, value and vibe. Mirroring classic Fender® designs, the Classic Vibe offering is not intended to be era or vintage correct—but rather imparting the vibe of a classic Fender® design. Each has a distinctive feature set combinations— adding up to one classic looking instrument. Great sound, vintage looks, unbeatable value—Classic Vibe!
