Description
Squier’s Standard Stratocaster keeps the shape and soul of the original design while trimming the neck down for easier reach across the fretboard. The slimmer “C” profile, paired with a 9.5″ radius laurel fingerboard, makes bends feel smooth and fretting hand movement effortless, whether you’re working through chords or stretching for leads. With 22 medium jumbo frets, you get full access up the neck without running out of real estate.
Under the hood, three Standard Single-Coil Strat pickups deliver the bright, snappy tone the platform is known for, routed through a 5-position blade switch for everything from glassy neck tones to biting bridge quack. The agathis body wears a polyurethane finish in Cherry Sunburst, topped with a 3-ply parchment pickguard and white control knobs for that vintage-inspired look. A 2-point synchronized tremolo with block saddles handles pitch dives and subtle vibrato, while chrome hardware and standard die-cast tuners keep things stable and easy to maintain.
Details worth noting:
- Maple neck with satin urethane finish and synthetic bone nut
- 25.5″ scale length, 1.650″ nut width
- Large ’60s style headstock with gold and black Squier logo
- White pearloid dot inlays and engraved neckplate
- Strung with Fender USA 250L nickel-plated strings (.009-.042)
- Includes gigbag
Whether it’s your first Strat or a reliable backup for the road, this one offers the familiar playing feel Fender’s design is famous for, at a price that leaves room in the budget for an amp or pedal.
