I have 2 Squier, a left-handed (yes I am left-handed) and handed to the way Jimi Hendrix.
They have all been made in China 2 of the Aule sorted. Rosewood handle, very nice wood sunburst models (most common in left-handed). Head Start so 70's and profile C.
Super scratch beginner with 21 frets, we'll have enjoyed a good 22nd but it is already a super skyscraper for the price (on thomann that borders the 150 euros, a misery.)

3 micros simple stratum is jolly well made, exactly the same size as her big sister with only a smaller thickness to facilitate the timber and lower manufacturing costs.

The electronics are solid, it's been eight years since she turned back into a guitar, never had a glitch with, nickel, the pots are well except maybe that of reaction volume a little bit late, but serve to give her a dirty because its a little worse.

UTILIZATION

Channel super nice, easy access to the acute form strat!

Lightweight for a lighter guitar

The hardware is more fragile, after about fifteen years I think the mechanics will change but has no major long-term investment.
However 7 years after the pickguard is good to throw, 3-ply pickguard priviliegier a milling fender!

SOUNDS

Very versatile (strat what) you get to do everything with! Maybe a little "just" for the heavy metal (and still for some pedals will be worry-free ca). It's like jazz rock and blues without any difficulté.Le 5-way switch is there to serve the beginner quickly tell if it is limited but explores the settings with a short time he has it vera much more in the belly than we imagine, personal opinion after 8 years of scratching.

OVERALL OPINION

So I recommend this guitar for anyone who wants s'offir a stratum with a bargain Competition, as I said once, it is better to buy a good amp and play with a lamp above squier only if buy and play on a Fender 50W Transistor ...
A word.
