Squier Affinity Strat MN OW Reviews

Absolutely perfect

This guitar is great for pros and noobs its build quality is outstanding and it sounds great. Its Vibroto system (aka tremolo system) is great for all sorts for tricks such as divebombs

Unbeatable at this price point or at many higher price points.

In the many decades i've tried to play guitar - now over five of them - i have had at least 10 guitars for each decade, including some high-end Fenders costing 4 figures. I never expected to be impressed by a £200/£210 budget Fender, but this Squier has shocked me with the standard of finish, the playability, and the sound from the three p-ups. I'm blown away by it, and i feel like saying there is no such thing as a better guitar than this out there for the same price. I have a 2010 Fender Classic 50s Player Strat, and i like this Squier so much i'm going to sell the Player Strat. I actually cannot fault the Squier, and i have built numerous Strat and Teles and i'm annoyingly fussy and hard to impress. Out of the box, the intonation is 90% good, the neck relief fine, and the action a kind of base-line setting with all the tops of the saddles flush. I was able to lower the action to a very low level with no buzzing or any other problems. The neck is slim and fast, with almost no roughness to the fret ends. The pick-ups are set quite low so according to taste can be raised to be nearer the strings. It's cosmetically impressive with flawless finish Guess what ?....I love it !

She's in love. With the guitar.

This was a gift and the recipient absolutely loves it. She plays a couple hours every day and she loves the way she (the Squier) sounds, and the way she (the Squier) makes her (the girl) sound so good.

Ah, the magic of the electric axe. They do make you sound great though, right, Rockstars?

This beautiful Strat-style Olympic White guitar is a pleasure to play, she (the girl) says.

Highly recommended.

Beginner here!

I really love the guitar everything is so perfect about it and it easy to play and beautiful and comfy 1000/10!!!

High Price - Performance Ratio

If you're looking for a decent guitar in this price range, I don't think you can go wrong with this series of guitars. Especially the Olympic White really stands out and looks up to par with it's bigger brothers. But for an experienced player who has heard and played other guitars, this might not be satisfactory.
