Fender Squier by Fender Bullet Stratocaster Beginner Hard Tail Electric Guitar - Black, Right Handed

Product Information

Here’s an interesting tip: many professionals have invested in the Squier Bullet series so they can smash it in public for a ripping show. So that means it has a good enough tone to play live and, if you have the money and the guts, it’s cheap enough to destroy on the stage and impress the fans.

Squier represents the affordable side of the Fender brand. Producing officially-licensed Fender designs, Squier guitars are made to the exact same measurements as their parent company’s models. And ultimately, Squier instruments offer that genuine Fender feel and tone for just a fraction of the price. Squier Bullet Series StratocastersOverall, the tone is good and the guitar has a surprising amount of features. As for the buzz, you may find ways to handle this issue. Today, modern Fender Stratocasters are made in Japan, Mexico or the United States at Fender’s Corona factory. However, for many guitarists, a Fender Strat may be out of their budget. That’s where Squier comes in. If you’re looking for an affordable Stratocaster, Squier is a great choice. Fender’s entry-level brand is the only company aside from Fender that can make genuine Stratocasters. Also, children won’t notice any difference between the sound of quality guitars and the sound of budget guitars. What’s important to them is how it looks, how easy they are to play, and how much the guitar weighs on their shoulders. And the Fender-designed Bullet guitars hit all of these boxes. All Squier Bullet Special guitars were made in Indonesia at the Cort factory. The serial numbers start with IC followed by two digits that designate the year the guitar was made. The remaining digits indicate month of production, color, and sequence. IC02xxxxxxx indicates a guitar made in 2002. [5] [ unreliable source?] Bullet Strings [ edit ]

This assembly-line style manufacturing is still how Squier guitars are made today, and for the most part that’s no problem. A similar alternative by Squier is the Affinity series, which is built on better quality parts than Bullet instruments but still sells at reasonable prices. These guitars are seriously cool, and as Squier likes to change around their models every couple of years, they could also become pretty rare. FSR

Why Should I Choose a Squier Bullet Stratocaster?

If you just want to see what it’s like to play a Stratocaster but need to keep costs low, this is a great option. The Bullet Strat HSS is a pretty versatile axe that gives decent tones considering its price.

Overall, these guitars are made very very well. For this kind of money, we're expecting the basics to be done to a good standard – nothing else – and we were pleasantly surprised at how solid and well-made these ranges feel when playing them.Perhaps the biggest advantage of a Squier guitar is consistency. You can try one, and any other example will feel and sound exactly the same. That is a big reason I consider this one of the guitars every guitarist should own. If you’re looking for your very first electric, it makes a great beginner guitar. Even if you’ve got years of experience, you can still have a good time with it, especially if you’re a Fender fan. More so, it’s quite common today to find budget Squier guitars that perform just as good as a Fender selling for three times its price. If not better.
