MGR/PsYcHoKOALA « Squier Affinity Strat »
Published on 03/11/04 at 15:00I payed 150 for it, it came with a Frontman15g I got it at guitar center. It was my first guitar.
I like that this thing came with everything you needed to get started on guitar. Great fender cable, shitty guitar, great amp, decent strap. I like that this thing can stay in tune for a while. The amp is great it has a decent overdrive on it and the amp can take a beating and it gets pretty loud for a small bastage. I liked the picks too because heavier picks help beginners gain speed faster.
I hate the guitar. It is a waste of money. The cord plug on it unscrews and decides to fall off the first week you get it. Within the first 2 months I got it, it suddenly shut off when i was playing. It would shut off ones a day where the tone knobs became volume knobs and the switch wouldnt work (no sound out of the guitar) unless in the bottom position.
The electronics on the guitar are highly unreliable. It will die on you electronically any time. The guitar refuses to break externally though, because I tried to break it so I could have a reason to get a new guitar. But the POS didn't.
Avoid this guitar please. Do not buy this shit, send squier a message because they dont make good products. Buy a real fender stratocaster if you like classic rock, or get a Jackson js1 if you like rock.
