Description
The Squier Affinity Series Stratocaster proves you don’t need to spend a fortune to get that unmistakable Strat feel and tone. Built around an alder body finished in a rich Brown Sunburst, this guitar pairs classic looks with beginner-friendly playability and enough versatility to grow with you as your skills develop.
The bolt-on maple neck carries a comfortable “C” shape profile and a rosewood fingerboard with a 9.5″ radius, making chord work and lead lines feel natural whether you’re just starting out or stepping down from a pricier axe for practice. 21 medium jumbo frets and dot inlays keep things familiar and easy to navigate up and down the large ’60s-style headstock design.
Three single-coil pickups in the S/S/S configuration deliver that bright, glassy Strat character, and the 5-position blade switch opens up everything from punchy bridge tones to warm neck sounds and the in-between quack players chase for funk and blues. Master volume plus two tone controls (one for neck, one for middle) give you straightforward, hands-on shaping of your sound.
Rounding out the build:
- Synchronous tremolo bridge with standard tremolo arm for pitch bends and vibrato
- Synthetic bone nut and standard die-cast tuners for stable, reliable tuning
- Chrome hardware with white switch tip and white plastic control knobs
- Strung with Fender USA Super 250L NPS strings (.009-.042)
Whether it’s your first electric guitar or a dependable backup for gigs and practice, this Affinity Stratocaster brings genuine Fender design DNA to a budget-friendly price point.
