Description
The Squier Bullet Stratocaster HSS is built for players just starting out, but it doesn’t skimp on the versatility that’s made the Strat shape a staple for decades. Instead of the standard three single-coils, this HSS configuration swaps the bridge pickup for a humbucker, giving you access to fatter, higher-output tones alongside the glassy sparkle of the neck and middle single-coils. Flip through the 5-way blade switch and you’ve got everything from crisp, clean rhythm textures to a thicker bridge growl suited to rock and beyond.
Under the hood, a basswood body keeps the guitar light and comfortable, while the bolt-on maple neck and rosewood fingerboard (9-1/2″ radius, 21 medium jumbo frets) offer a smooth, familiar feel for chords and lead lines alike. The synchronous tremolo with cast saddles lets you add subtle pitch bends and vibrato without straying from tune for long, and covered tuning machines help keep things stable string-to-string.
