Are you some sort of comedian?
Just wondering.
100% no
I don’t know I’m laughing at the non-joke jokes 😂
Sounded remarkably like a guitar. I like it.
So you admit that you avoid paying taxes?
@@walterkersting9922 you think sonic had to pay taxes? Hedgehog blue would be a cool name for a color, think about it!
I agree. It indeed does sound like a guitar. I can confirm this
took me 10 days to agree
That's a great point mine also sounded very guitar like.
I love that it's routed for a second humbucker. That makes it worth so much more.
ya!
Not to mention it has a toploader bridge, so if you wanna add a top-mount B or G bender you'll have a way easier time than you would a through-body.
The guitar sounded surprisingly good and with the pedals you used even better. Another nice review and the subliminal cuts at 1:10 and 2:40 kept me going back to try and figure it out.
🎸😝👍
Got the bullet telecaster, which is a similar guitar to this, 6 months ago. I have no complaints. Especially since I got it brand new for $150. I’ve only been playing for a little over a year now but I don’t think I’ll be replacing this thing for the next few years. Maybe a few upgrades max.
Get a clear pickguard and put something in the humbucker cavity like a cool Hot Wheel or a action figure or a mini diorama. Modified!
I have a vintage Kenner Star Wars Jawa. I may just do this!
I love you dry humor. I'm 59 and wanting to learn how to play guitar. I have tried a couple of times on a acoustic and learned a few cords. I think a electric would be better for me because they are not bulky compared to a acoustic.
I paid my dues on acoustic prior to electric ⚡️
Get a Classic Vibe Strat to learn on if you can. Super-comfy and high quality for low cost.
Love a one pickup guitar. The Kramer Barretta Specials are also decent
I wish they sold them in hardtail
@@BOBANDVEG tremolno is your best bet!
i just got one of those kramers. really cool, even though i gotta deal with some fret sprout for the first time ever. oh well.
@@mrNobody100 sorry to hear that. my one the frets are almost perfect, but the six bridge screws for the trem aren't aligned. the outer one for low e is out. unfortunately these things you cant pick up on in a store and its only when i went to mod and put in a bigger brass block trem that i realised hey something aint right. oh well. it still plays and sounds great!
im sure you could tap the frets in or refret one or two if real bad! they're great mod guitars!
@@BOBANDVEG me too. i just converted mine basically by screwing down the bridge and tightening claw. put a much bigger block in it too. brass.
1 pickup, but routed for 2 because later you'll come to your senses and add a neck pickup!! Super Sonic fun demo, Landon!
I just bought the Sonic Tele and after 30 minutes of fun tweaking I CAN'T PUT IT DOWN! Well okay I just did but these are really fantastic little things. Fender's powerful response to all the Amazon goodies surfacing lately I suspect.
"trade your guns for hedgehogs"
Shadow the Hedgehog would like to have a word with you
This comment is underrated af
“Blast Processing” earned the like. Forgot that term even existed.
it never did 😱😝
It amazes me how people jump on the bandwagon when someone does a video on a guitar or laptop computer or cell phone or BBQ grill. Everyone starts downing the bullet squires and some say yeah I took all the junk out and put new pick ups and pots, switches. Why buy a squire and spend 400 hundred or more dollars on it and start bragging. It is what it is and for someone learning or someone wants to get a guitar that they can afford just to go back to their youth day's and pretend again like a lot of us done when we got our first guitar and some like me still have one of my guitars from the 60's and it still a good guitar slim hollow body electric with vibrato and all original nothing changed but strings it's a 1966 Guild my daddy bought it for himself because he played live on the radio in the 50's but he wanted to see if I would pick it up and I did joined a band in 68 and played until 1972 made one record which done OK in Europe but not at all here at home as usual the Americans wanted British and the British wanted American. But I hadn't really played in all most 50 years. So buy the guitar you want and let everyone enjoy whatever guitar they want and can afford.
yes, I *literally* can't put my guitar down. that's why I bought a carbon fiber guitar, so I can shower with it while playing let it rain
Purple Rain...
Perfect to add a neck p90 for jazzy tones
My favourite nonsense guitar saying is, "it plays like butter".
or "the neck is smooth like butter" if you dragged your fingers trough cold butter its not gonna be smooth lolll
Yeah, then the question would be "how does butter play?"
Hope the neck is not that soft.
I bought one of the squire sonic lime green one and I really like it. It's just simple the output in that humbucker is actually pretty good. Also awesome shirt 🤘
First time watching your vids super unique not the same old crap i like to watch these squire videos while my fenders gently weep
Sneak a pickup under the pickup and use a push pull to engage it.
I've got a telecaster affinity by squire. It was a little rough in the beginning. I realize it has ceramic pickups. But I paid a little bit of money to have it set up it plays really nice and the body's already routed out for a humbucker if I want to put it in on the neck position. And the satin finish the guitar literally feels good in your hand.
At 60 years old I just started to learn to play the guitar. i just so happen to get a Squire - Esquire H in the Ultra Violet. It is so pretty and sounds so good. I'm not sure what the best way to learn is. I learned keys because I knew theory, but I think I'm going to go with Fender Play. Any thoughts? Great video BTW.
nice! ya it's worth a shot. I found the presentation dry, but the info is good
I grew up playing trumpet and sax and recently picked up a guitar. It is great for learning good habits, posture, and warm up and training exercises.
My only complaint is that it is very un-technical. You won't learn the nuts and bolts of music theory or how to play complicated rhythms, but you can study that anywhere online.
I bought a couple of these low cost $139.00 Squire telecasters from the Fender store on sale. These sound very good. Basic guitars, no frills. Love my cheap Squires by Fender. Bought an esquire as well. Love it too. That sonic sounds really good.
That’s a PRIMO candidate for modding. Go to say though, that’s one of the more janky looking control cavities I’ve seen in a good while on a fresh out of the factory guitar. Some of those solder joints looked a bit sketchy. But nothing a little tinkering can’t address. Modding can be a LOT of fun. And if it weren’t for Squires being an affordable test-bed option to learn and work on, I likely would never have had the nerve to give it a try. Now… I’m more than a little bit hooked.
To be completely honest, I hadn’t noticed that Squire had a HB ‘Esquire’ out. I’m thinking I may need to give one a try!
Enjoy, Landon! 👍🏼
cheers!
I want one just for something to use and play at home. I dont really play much guitar these days but i pick up every now and then. I have a SD Invader pick up laying around, id probably swap it.
🎸👍
I think that Fender (Squier) is doing some really cool things!
The Esquire single humbucker looks like a punk rock workhorse IMO. Although, The Squier Sonic Mustang SS in Torino Red? It's calling me. I gotta get that one ASAP!
Much love Landon!
Cheers!
My new guitar is Sonic Blue and it has one P90.
Are they making Squiers with a p90 at the bridge?
Kind of silly they missed off the pickup selector. Even the original Esquire had a pickup selector wired up to give 3 different sounds from the one pickup.
On this they could have used the switch to give you series, parallel and split sounds from the one pickup.
This guitar would be perfect if it had a belly cut and an arm cut. I love strat contours on everything, even Teles.
If Squire are made by Fender, why not include a Fender decal and squire written with ih it? Gretsch did so with their Streamline Gretsch guitrars , so at least the buyer gets Gretscch on the headstock.
it does say Squier by Fender on the headtock
Very cool. You know what would be even cooler? A single P90. A Tele JR Esquire. Gawd yes!
That's a great idea.. C'mon Fender/Squier do it!!
I won't put it down!!
Great idea...might steal that😮 and do the modtastic .
It's more money but the fender noventa telecaster exists.
@@rbush83 Well I'll be damned, you're right! I can't believe Fender stole my idea.
On Through the Night is my fav Def Leppard album. - Terry in Casselman.
Nice Tyler Durdin Sonic insert.
that's my fav movie!
@@landonbailey I am Jacks complete lack of surprise.
nice '90s reference
Waiting for the purple to come back in stock. Replace the pickup with a Dylan humbucker sized P-90 and I’ll be set.
I had no idea Jeremy Renner and Mark Ruffalo had a guitar playing lovechild, but thanks for a solid demo 🤣🤘🎸
😱👍🎸😝
I like the sound of that JHS overdrive pedal.
Might have to pick one up.
it's great. really versatile with the mini switch
Say what you will, but Fender/Squier still make some great value guitars. I like this one a lot! Esquires are just cool rock & roll machines! And this one's no exception!
So I bought the purple one. It's great man! I modded it with a pair of epiphone probuckers and a 3 way toggle switch. Its bloody awesome 🎸🎸🎸
Those are pretty nice. Made me want one when I saw it come out. But I still have that Esquire build to do. Just waiting on the when it can happen part.
"lets make things confusing by spelling squier and esquire differently" ive had this same thought my entire life.
and also Squire exists
@@landonbailey
Squier was a company that made strings. Fender bought that company.
I suppose when Fender introduced their budget brand they could have named it Squire, but they already owned the other name as a trademark so why waste money and time trademarking another similar name especially at a time when the company was struggling to survive?
What’s under the pick guard?!?
I'd like to see someone make a guitar out of a car fender.
What if all guitars were secretly made by the same company? 🤯
Cort produces 60% of the world's guitars. It's not far from the truth. Fender owns Fender, squier, Jackson charvel.
always wanted a telecaster with a humbucker in the bridge but couldn't find one until I saw this. got it, added a mexican telecaster neck single coil and now I can die in peace.
Ultraviolence is Clockwork Orange... This is enticing, but I need that neck pickup... or do I? Wish the review had the tone handled to check if it would hang!
can i replace the humbucker with an active emg humbucker and have enough space for the battery?
Probably not
LOL Sonic the Hedgehog making a split-second appearance got me!
Thanks for this video. I some time ago "bit the bullet" and got the Bullet. And I think Fender made a good move here, getting away from Bullet to the Sonic. Sonic is something like light speed away from Bullet. I learned today ... from another RUclips video ... that Basswood is actually an amazing wood. That is, the select Basswood. The crap basswood is what the Bullet Tele bodies are made of. Thanks a lot Fender. Poplar is a far better choice than crap level heavy basswood. Now they tell me ... Anyway, Sonic seems like a good buy. Good bye
In my experience as well as a couple of guitar techs at Sweetwater, the Classic Vibe series is basically the better of the lesser expensive Squire line.... Bottom line, you get what you ay for; IF you're lucky !
CVs are great
Just picked up the affinity telecaster deluxe from 2022 they are making great guitars right now my first ever telecaster and I love it pretty on par with my Gibson and my Japanese 60's strat. It's awesome stock but I'm considering putting a Gibson 57 in bridge and a tele deluxe cunife in neck orange drop cap only because I've always liked the idea of a Gibson fender hybrid.
I was thinking on putting the neck of that guitar on to a squier telecaster deluxe
But idk if it would fit or would it even be an upgrade or just a samegrafe or downgrade
Great video Landon, I see your wearing Def Leppard on through the night T Shirt I saw that tour they Opened up for AC/DC and Ted Nugent at Cobo Hall in Detroit it was a killer Show. This Guitar would be a good mod guitar
$9 Giant Tiger special!
Wasnt happy with the quality on the one i bought the other day. Mine was pretty close to a lemon. If i didnt do repairs and setups for a living i would have returned it. The worst part was a ridge of wood in the back of the neck almost 2mm tall that hadnt been noticed before the put on the sealer coat. Must have been made on a Friday at 4:45...
It’s bound to happen
@@landonbailey sure is. I'm glad I had the k ow how to fix it myself.
Marshal Shredmaster pedal for sale, works great, did not step on it barefoot 😄
my feet are cleaner than shoes and socks :P
Can you please make a video about japanese guitars, about their quality, how they compare to mexican and usa made guitars, cheap japanese fenders and expensive ones. Its unexplored world for me, and for some other people too i think. I read a lot about them but never have ability to play or hold one.
ruclips.net/video/h9uv3c0xI-c/видео.html
@@landonbailey I ve seen that video, thank you for mentioning, but i dont have money for guitars from that comparison, i worked thee month for mexican strat, no jokes, i mean maybe video about lower segment guitars, like traditional 60s japanese guitars, they are cheaper then mexican, but have rosewood and bone nuts.
try the search feature. I have a bunch of Japan videos: ruclips.net/video/7a0kUFYPWTE/видео.html
Dude, I bought a new Fender and I can't put it down. I'm actually getting a bit scared. It's stuck to my hands. What do I do?
ruclips.net/user/shorts3LU4_IgQlMI
One question, this one was crafted in Indonesia or China? I had one once from Indonesia and the quality of it was no good, the Chinese one was better, that's weird but was the situation I passed through
Indonesia
@@landonbailey Thanks for the answer
That was good humor about the guys that say they like their guitar so much they could not put it down. 😜😜🤣🤣👍👍
Wich one is better the Squier Sonic or the Harley benton Te 20 ?
What does better mean for you? It’s all subjective
Bought one the other day. I love it. A nice guitar for small jams and living room sessions.
I don't consider Squier a Fender.I cant afford a Fender so I have a Jet JT 350 and it's an amazing Tele style guitar .Have Jet made it to the States yet ?
Serenity NOW! 😂
They need a 3 way switch for expanding the tonal range like the original Esquire.
Where is your link for the Alberta store please?
Click the Reverb link and search for Guitarworks. They are in Calgary
Hi bud, I have this guitar, what bridge replacement do you recommend if I want to make it string thru body. I know nothing about string spacing. Thanks
haven't done it myself so I can't say
Really wasn't expecting Brain Stew. Cheers!
I don’t remember!
My man was showing out in that sound demo!
what does that even mean! 😵😝🎸
Think this will be a good budget jonny greenwood tele plus if you just change the bridge to the red lace sensor pickups? With the shredmaster pedal
Edit: Also have a fender champion 40 which has seen better days but still rocking on
That guitar's begging to get sticker'd up. They even left out the neck pickup so there's more room for stickers!
The only time I play my guitar is in the shower.
i can’t wait to mod my esquire and put a tele bridge in the neck… ? the guitar sounds great, i just fundamentally have a problem with the concept of a one pickup guitar. is the bridge pickup literally in the same place as a conventional tele?
Just needs a TV Jones humbucker.
Blast processing!? So Fender does what gibs-dont....???
Hi, what did you think of the humbucker. mine seems weak in the bass and mids area... do you think its worth swapping it out or is it mostly the guitar that makes it sound not so clear in the bass mids area- Thanks
sounded fine in my environment. Definitely try a different pickup if you don't like the stock PU
Your Humor is so simple and affective, U a funny dude !! TY Landon!!
thanks for watching
Wow this one's name is a mouthful. I would swap that HB for a Seymour Duncan JB ASAP. You can also make a guitar out of a set of strings, a piece of 2 by 4 and some screws. But it doesn't like as good as a tele...
@Rob K thanks for that Rob. I had no idea about the design philosophy. I also enjoy a belly carved as well.
I wish they had a Tele this colour with SS 😢
I make Love wearing my Telecaster like Clive Owen with Monica Belucci in "Shoot 'em Up".
Squiers are cool but I dislike the thin necks compared to Fender MIM and USA models.
this wasn't isn't super thin like I was expecting
@@landonbailey cool!
Only miss for me on this is the lack of a 3 way switch… Squier did just release a paranormal series deluxe esquire today that I am strongly considering as it has the esquire wiring. Only thing is the price is around $429 which is more then double this one. Hmm decisions decisions
it looks like the old avri lavin signature model
American vintage re issue?
@@landonbailey lol!it was a squier, tele body, humbucker in bridge position a tele shaped hardtail super strat 🤣
So did I and I love it. Great neck.
were you surprised it wasn't super thin? I was
Squire is great My squier jazz Bass is awesome possum.
Actually, they should sell one without any pickups. I wonder how many they would sell?
its called a nocaster
24” scale length. 1 1/2 inches shorter than a Stratocaster. 3/4 of an inch shorter than a Gibson Les Paul. Guaranteed to be a BIG hit.
Nice review, Landon. Cheers.
A video only Frank Costanza could love🤣
This is the BEST video ever. Not exaggerated.
The desert is jealous of this guy's dry humour
For a moment. I thought you were Albertan. Oops. Cool to see more Canadian axe wielders tho
That's the earliest electric guitar made by Fender but the copyright got them in trouble with another company that was associated with another different product.
What you're talking about is the "Broadcaster" name
“I’d buy that for a dollar!”
Ultra Violence. A Clockwork Orange.
What's the green day riff u played?
Put a P-90 in that baby !
or 2!
this is definitely one the guitars ever
I fully support that statement
0:43 😂
@LandonBailey
Thanks For Sharing 🎸🎶 🇨🇦💪
I could buy one and replace the pickup with an invader
I am tempted to buy one... and equip it with a white Seymour Duncan Invader... add a coilsplit feature... maybe a Killswitch button just for good measure to fill the void on the control plate... but my wife would probably murder me in my sleep over it, do it for me Landon, be the man I can't be...
Brain Stew nice, the first riff and song (in it's entirety) I ever learnt on guitar
