This is the squier, so branded fender, but I do not see a huge difference with orginale!
it has 22 frets, a simple microphone and a double. It has three microphones selections: for each microphone!
Vibrato is a standart, stratocaster style ...
the handle is quite thin but very practical in the acute ...

UTILIZATION

The handle is extremely pleasant, like the original, access to acute is simple, I play often very high (sonic youth requires) and I have no problem, this guitar is light, reliable, solid, except the paint ... but it's still quality for the money.
We get easily a good sound, I had no problem on it ...

SOUNDS

This guitar is versatile, it can play the sex pistols, led zeppelin, sonic youth, nirvana, all the sounds going very well .. apart from the grunge that is a bit light as it saturates less than a Jazzmaster .... which is the ideal of grunge!
I used it the first time with a REAL amp mesa boogie 60W, so it was great, but then I play the ibanez and fender, it's going very well.

This guitar is no need for metal, it has no form, sound and thank you God!

OVERALL OPINION

This guitar is amazing for its price, if you like punk, the purchase as soon as possible !!!!!!!!!!!
