- Thank you for visiting my channel. I love all things that feel organic and emotional via sound. I've been playing guitar about a year now (seriously) and do not know why I waited to focus on it. Since I bought my first electric last year I've been uploading my practice. I hope you'll join my journey. Grab your guitar no matter what level and join me! Mostly uploads of my practice and ideas for the day. The people that come by my channel here are all the most amazing souls from all around the world sharing one fantastic fact that music unites. Please feel free to join in and if you have a channel let me know and I will support you back best I can! Nothing feels better to me than a great friendship joined by beautiful music. Be well!
Today I give my thoughts on a recent purchase...The 2019 Squier Limited Edition Seafoam (surf) green tele by fender. It is a retail price of 179.00 USD and often on special for 129, 119, even 99 on some deals. Keep your eye out and do not think too hard on it. If you get a bad one you can swap. Mine and many I've spoken to get good ones. No complaints from me, but watch this video and my unboxing to see more. Peace to you and yours from Mine! The atmospheric Blues are my choice and genre I think I was born to share!

Even better Sound of this guitar ruclips.net/video/1wLbRVn3m04/видео.html
The telecaster has always been the working man's guitar. Paying a fortune for a custom shop version is just madness.
Hello there! This is my first ever! I played a US 3 months back and had to have a tele. I love it and the modding is endless should I ever feel so inclined. I appreciate the comment! Thank you very much indeed! So true!!
I agree custom much less name brand name guitars are so expensive and it's a shame because it doesn't have to be. Everything is about money.
Truth!!
tdunster2011 has a very good point and I agree. The G&L are to radically priced.
the bad thing about getting these is you'll really want to get 1 or 2 more in other finishes too!
This is so true man. Hahahah
Gary Ives I do. I have this green, but I’m looking for a black one.
@@xblackcatx1312 i have the black one, lets trade
@@xblackcatx1312 I'd love a Lake Placid Blue
Happened to me!
Telecasters are my favorite guitars... Simplicity and Function come together in a fantastic way!!! Proof again that Leo Fender got it right the first time!!! Like your solo at the end....I hear some David Gilmour in there....😎😁🎸👍
Thank you!!
Dude. I'm buying one. Nuff said. I've been on the fence with spending 400-500 for a Classic Vibe Tele but now I'm glad I don't have to and can save my money. My wallet and I appreciate you.
Thank you very much indeed!!! Let me know which color you get and how you like it!!
@@robertclarkguitar Well, the price went up on the Surf Green Tele before I could snag it, but I did get the butterscotch blonde one! Thanks again for keeping money in my wallet, brother!
That's even better. Hahahah. They all really feel the same. Just paint and fretboard diff. I like the BSB has maple neck. You will see soon enough, granted you dont get a dud which you can return and get good one ...You can upgrade these and still come out way cheaper! Thank you my friend for the kind comment. Love to see you unbox ! Heehh
@@GameBoyToast if you know how to set it up that's even better. Mine came set up to a t minus action was little high. Intonation spot on! Sky is the limit. These are made very well for the money.
I just got mine delivered this morning, unwrapped it, tuned it up and plugged it into my Hotrod Deluxe. Boy what a guitar! I bent the strings all over the place and it stayed in tune and the tone is superb. Surf green is just the coolest color too! It’s got the twang, it’s got the beautiful fat neck pickup tone, I am so glad I went for this. I must say my two main guitars are an American Deluxe HSS Stratocaster and a Gibson SG Standard, and this guy is up there with them!
Thank you!!!😀😀😀😀😇😇😇 I agree. I dont have the US models. But I've the MIM FSR gilmour vibe and the famous Classic Vibe 2015 60s and the bullet like you said.....Its a winner!!!! Thank you so much for the awesome comment!!
@@robertclarkguitar i have the same mim gilmour i think. maple neck,black pickguard and aged white hardware? mine is a 2017 and i love it. i have a bullet hardtail strat that plays almost as well after a lot of detail work to it. i play that more because i don't have to worry about it getting scratched up. i have the tele identical to the one in your video on the way and hope i like it as much as the other two
Man that's killer. Mine is indeed 2017 December coded. Hahah. I love it. I might put my player series pups in it and see how I like the tones but I like the stock ones too ceramic is fine. I baby mine too. It is in a pro fender hard case. I take it out more often now but it was my first electric ever. I started late coming from keys mainly drums ...but it had been a while due to fear of eviction and kids in apmt. Best addition to my journey yet. I have been having a blast. Thanks man. I miss my bullet tele. It was new and loved it and used it often. I got broke and sold it. Since I can always find another. Thanks man!!!!!
Man, great video. You sold me on it for sure. And everytime I watch you play, I'm inspired. You know how to make a guitar talk! Love this channel!
Man that's so kind of you. I truly am thankful for your sub!! I love the comradery. Learning more as a group here is kick ass!
@@robertclarkguitar For sure!
@@marcthacker4walls Hey buddy. Does your tele , since its the BSB specify the wood as alder? Or? I got response month ago from fender Squier customer relations and was given a oddball response that they use whatever they can get in bulk at the time, basswood , alder and poplar or "like" woods. Hahah. This is why so many have gone by the ad itself saying basswood. I just got a comment today someone saying it's not alder but poplar lol. So I gave them what I was told ....Not at all worried about it. But Squier should release this to the masses. Ending the debate. Hahahah. The bsb is said to surely use Alder because of the grain. No worries here I'm loving it even if they used old bunkbed or pallet. Heheheheh
@@robertclarkguitar bunkbed or pallet lol, I hear ya! Dude I'm gonna level with ya. I don't know. Lol! I just figured maple meant maple. But good question.I threw away the box and everything so I can't look now, sorry!
@@robertclarkguitar and I'm sorry for the lame response. Lol.
I got one for my daughter as her first guitar, two tone brown. Straight off the rack the sound and quality were amazing. Just looking at guitars on the rack it was the only one she wanted. After she had it a couple of weeks I went back to buy myself one (always wanted to learn guitar but never got around to it) but they were sold out. I settled for a Yamaha Pacifica 012 which is another incredible guitar for the price, but there's something about the tele bullet. It was a nice feeling as a parent to walk out the store with your kids dream guitar without breaking the bank.P.S. Her teacher now wants a tele after playing hers during lessons, and he's a Gibson blues man. He knows what he's talking about and says the bullet is an awesome guitar.
That is the best comment I've ever had. I'm a dad too !! In 2005 2006 I bought my son a a few but ultimately the Squier standard 20th Anniversary he got for his second one was the one he played most. That was until the Ibanez and to this day he plays Ibanez. Premiums and prestige series. He is so amazing. In fact he is on one of my videos ..I think titled My son shows the bullet Tele can shred. Hahahahahaha. Man you truly man my day. Knowing another young musician has been inducted as well as an adult and still got a great deal makes me happy! I only knew chords when I taught my son. I was drummer. And I didnt pick up guitar until he moved after grad. I missed those sounds out of his room. So i bought my first electric. MIM FSR david gilmour vibe. Since 2018 I've been uploading all my practice. Acquired the classic vibe and a few others. The Bullet was my first Brand new guitar. And i was so amazed i made this video. I want to thank you for the comment and wish you both well!! Cheers !!
Watching this vid made my day too. I hope other people watch it and give the tele bullet a try. Great starter guitar for beginners but a fun guitar for experienced guitarists too. I would never consider buying any other T style guitar after seeing and hearing the squire bullet.
I surely appreciate it my friend. I know you'll enjoy it! They are also fun to mod if ever you wanted to.
HOPE SHES COMING ALONG WELL AND HAPPY!
The string thru body and the wider nut width was what sold me on this guitar vs the Affinity
Man I should Have added that. I think on another video I expressed that. That to me is very very important. My fingers slip off at times on my Classic vibe as well. I think it's slightly narrower as well unless it's just my setup. I still love it. But the bullet somehow feels a slight bit wider up the neck. I was told the affinites are all mostly the narrow necks and the CV series is said to be dependant on era. My is 60s from 2015. You totally nailed it. Glad it's now in comments. Thank you!!
The 2020 affinity's are string thru full thickness body.
Bullets are not full thickness
@@smokepeddler Isn't it the opposite? I didn't see any affinity with a string through body
@@kevindworzak5393 up until 2020 .
Now the affinities are string thru with a standard spec thick poplar body. Made in China.
@@kevindworzak5393 I have one
Oh yeah, and $119 from Guitar Centre, got it delivered within two days and it was set up great right out of the box, action, intonation all spot on.
That's awesome my friend. Isnt it the time to be a guitarist! Hahaha. I'm going to try the bullet strat next. Hahah
Thx for this. Very helpful. I love my Bullet Squire. Gig with it constantly. My musician advice: Just keep all of your guitars. It’s Not worth it really to resell them, [unless you trade for another]. They don’t take up a lot of room if they’re in cases - they are fun to setup and even modify as you wish... Plus hey life is short, enjoy them all. Cheers.
Thank You!!! The bullet tele to this day was best guitar for the little money yet I have tried. I stand by that. I sold mine sadly but the guy really begged for it for his son. Hahah. I will get another.
Just got mine. Lake Placid Blue. Paid 129 bucks for it. I had hoped for a good guitar for the money. What I got was a good guitar, period. No sharp fret ends. Flawless fit and finish. Low output pups that sound right for a Tele. Set up with low action right out of the box. I would gladly pay full price for this. And yes, I don't believe it's basswood, as it's got a bit of heft to it. Heck, even the tuners are good. Thanks for the recommendation.
Man that is AMAZING!! I had no doubts but I wanted the LPB color badly!! Never too late. Can always have more than one of these little killers!! Congrats my friend!!! Keep in touch on your days forward on any concerns or positives ! I still love mine! The action was a bit high but that was a crazy good deal and I lowered it. Lol. Yes those tuners work. Stays in tune great! I put 10s on mine and wow!! Amazing !! I'm thinking about a cheap alnico bridge pup trial to see if any better or worse but plays great as is!!!
I bought one this past year and i love it! I have a fender professional strat, and a squier 50s cv telecaster, and i play my surf green bullet tele ALL THE TIME! Love the way it sounds, plus the color is great!. I didn't even have to polish the frets. They were a little rough, but after playing it for a while, they smoothed out fine. GREAT GUITAR!
Same here my friend lovely guitar. They are knocking them out today nicely. I know my rough frets are played in smooth now too. Hahah. I just need to lower my action a hair. All great still!!
You don't seem like a beginner player. Nice video. You have a beautiful honest energy.
Thank you very much!! That was very kind of you!!!
Lovely playing at the end there
Hi thank you!!! I had horrible sound then. Hehe and have a better quality on recent videos. Making my own music with guitar. Ive made several with this guitar! Thanks again its a great deal!
you sir, have convinced me. buying this thing tomorrow, thank you
What a hell of a profile name!! Lmmfao!! Love it.
Hello. And thank you very much indeed. If you are ordering online check it over for any shipping issues. Rarely a bad one can come but the best part is, returns are free. Until you get one which I've not heard of but one so far .....You will be in for a treat for what you paid. It's a killer back up or modding platform or like me still a player! I play it daily! In fact I'm going to buy another. And bullet strat. Hahahah. I'll pick up a 20 usd alnico guard loaded and the rest is history. Maybe locking tuners eventually. But the damn thing stays in tune. All this for 119 on sale. Sometimes less and 179 reg is still decent. Peace. And inform me when you get it.
@@robertclarkguitar Im just a beginner, been playing for about 9 months playing on some knockoff strat thats been sitting in some guys attic for about 10 years. Thought about getting something that felt right and this one just felt right, i appreciate the help alot, it should come around thursday, ill let you know!
@@holyfuckwhydoesyoutubelete1284 Awesome!! Hey I'm not too far off! Lol. I played drums most my life. At least 26 years. Then tinkered with keyboards and taught my son to play basic chords. He is kick ass. In fact there is a video on my channel him on the very tele in this video. It's short but he blew me away. Hahahahahaha. Right now I've been loving the Classic Vibe 60s. Is 2015 model I put loaded guard on. Player series MIM. Man its killer.
Also if you bought an old knock off strat. It may be valuable or can be built up nice! Set it up professionally and put in some better parts.
Ok man I'm excited for you. I know you'll be happy. Mine came set up and all. Action was a little high but I fixed that. RUclips has been amazing for guitar. Hahahah. Nice to meet you man and hell yes. Make a video or just let me know how it goes!!!! Much thanks for the comment and kind words!! Music Is a beautiful language.
@@robertclarkguitar keep it up man, i appreciate it.
@@holyfuckwhydoesyoutubelete1284 Hahah I will !!! I just upload some playing on the tele. Very spacy messing with some patches on Gt1.
This is why I bought mine😁
Thank you Ronald Jr!! Amazing kit for nicely priced 119, to 179.00. Completely still blown away. Hahah
Ron I hope you are well brother!
Been looking at this all day today and have been on the fence.
This video convinced me ... pulling the trigger right now...in that same color!!
Good job, brother!
Thank you so much! I'm sure you will love it!! I still play mine! Want another one!!!
Woow thank you i will buy it ! Watching your video from Algeria 🇩🇿
Thank you very much!! I've made lots of videos with it since this one !! I love it man!! Go for it.
Robert Clark yes am watching the others videos ! Good job 👏
I just bought this same one last week. Yes frets definitely need polishing for sure but fret sprout on only on 1-2 frets I could find and not that bad. Pickups I'm changing because I want to not because I have to, the factory ones are actually very good despite the price. Also getting new electronics (4 way Emerson pre-wired) and a Switchcraft input jack for reliability. To be honest I've bought guitars that were 3-5 times this price that weren't as well built or sounded anywhere near as good. Spot on with your review!
Really glad you mentioned getting the pro-setup also. It makes all of the difference in the world and can save you a lot of money in the long run. The pickups on this absolutely floored me how good they were, I, like you, am changing because I want my own signature sound but for anyone getting their first or even a backup Tele, you can't beat this deal!
Man I am so sorry I missed you comment. This video took off on me. Hahaha. I am very pleased that decent guitars are being bought at decent prices today. I totally know what you mean. I love my other guitars my most prized is the MIM FSR strat because I love David Gilmour hahah. It's a killer working man's strat and I love the classic vibe 60s too so the bullet was a purchase to just gauge the feel. And man was I blown away!! This is why i made this review. I know I've seen SO MANY CORK SNIFFER VIDS and they claim to love what they feel and hear. I believe they are sometimes just calculating the buyers price justification ...i do not judge to each his or her own. I just believe this kind of deal can get into more hands and more fresh music can be made rather than bragging how much you spent we can brag how beautiful the music is at a HUGE FRACTION of the cost. Also collect the colors and build them up with whatever we feel. Thank you so very much my friend.
It`s great to see what you are doing and coming up with ;-) I have been a collector of these guitars,i don`t know why, but it is something about them
Wow!!! LARS I thank you! I cannot believe it. I've played the hell out of mine. To be honest I do not want to pass up the bullet strat next to compare to my MIM and Classic vibe. The prices are just insane and that's probably why. Lol. To be able to buy 10 guitars over just one. That's nuts! Hahahaha. Thank you for your support brother.
Hi again....it`s a good way that you explain your guitar......i have played most of guitars over the years Gibson,Fender Ibanez and so on.....but some strange thing happened when i try a afinnity for the first time....also bought two Classic Vibe,,,,fantastic guitars....and then..... i bought a BULLET,and woooow... my main guitar ever since,so i can understand what you feel of that guitar;-) Squier guitars ruuules
Love it!! Thank you very much!! Now I'm Looking for a decent reverb. Strymon, ocean machine or immerse or? So many to choose from. Just hate the price of strymon. But god. They are awesome. Hehehe
Loving my Butterscotch FSR Bullet!
I hope you post a vid! Would love to see it in your hands! Nothing beats a killer price for decent gear!! I want a BSB too!!! Hahaha peace man.
I'm a beginner and I play a bullet strat. It's amazing so far!
I made a video changing the strings to 10s and polishing the fretboard. That alone gave this thing a huge overhaul. It's a great instrument indeed!! Thank you!!
@@robertclarkguitar any time, man!
I Dont Remember This One but it's good SeeingYou,Hope Alls Well,Thanks For Sharing,Have a Great Day,Sounds Amazing 🤘🖤🙏
Thank you !!!! You too!!!!!😄😄😄😄☺️☺️☺️☺️
Awesome review of this Squier Bullet Telecaster guitar. Have a great time Robert.
Thank You!!! This was my first review really and I really didn't put much into production. Hahah. But it was the only video that brought decent views. Soon I hope to review more stuff since my son and son in law both have a lot to review they have. I will be living with son in law and daughter soon and my son's family moving down too.
Always waiting for your video bro. Just enjoy life with your family.👍👍👍
Thank you man ! Now i am definitely decided for this guitar 🥰 you are great man, good luck
Thank you so much my friend !!
i own 18 guitars...Think i just found number 19
Thats how it's done! Hahah
Just ordered the blue version. Should have it in 3-5 biz days.Thanks for the demo.
Hey there Rick!! I doubt you'll be dissatisfied....I am so glad you took the jump. I wanted the lake placid SOOO BADD but the shipping was month behind.. Wouldnt you know it, as soon as I ordered it the musician friend site changed their backup supply and were week back. I was bummed but the surf green is one I also wanted. I figured I would relic is up or make it my beater. Now I fear getting her dirty. Hahah.
My final or latest update video on it will come next couple of days. I've had it since this video giving time to thoroughly play and look it over. The only thing I had was a tiny little piece of solder drip next to the control plate. I think the sales are extremely mild blemish as many say they find if any a tiny little strange mark or etc. If that's the case I'll buy them all day. Also though the guitar was set up great and intonated too, the height of the action is a bit high for me but for teles its probably right on. Anyway man, prepare to be blown away unless you already know and have played them. Should anything happen, bring it to the store or they will ship you another. Some call and tell them about their little spot and get damn near 50 off rather than returning it but I'm not that way, I feel i got what i played for at least and then some. Peace to you Rick and hope to see ya back soon.
@@robertclarkguitar Thanks for the info.
@@robertclarkguitar The action on my was set too low but that's a minor gripe. I'm really astonished at how good this plays and sounds. I was previously stuck in that $500-$800 range for any decent guitar but this just proved me wrong. Squier nailed this!
That's amazing isnt it?? This is proving you dont have to pay much to play these days!! Haha. Killer ! I may snag a bullet strat next and give it a go.
I've got one I bought for £90 used, I love it - looks good , plays nicely , sounds like a tele, mine's quite heavy too, around 8.5 lbs,I agree, just get one
Thank you! I truly love the tele bullet!!
Very cool. I always dug the telecaster sound in the old country Classics. And John 5 proved you could be metal af on one lol. Nice content brother.
Hello Thomas! I agree! Though again I'm still kinda new to guitar yet, I am getting more and more desiring the teles. This is my only one but it proved to be a great get it done machine! While I played drums most my life and keys I felt something missing late in life...2018 I gave in and bought strat. Then GAS hit. Thanks for stopping by!
Bullet is awesome if you buy a little pack to polish the frets and file the edges. I love mine, the color is great.
Yes indeed. Polished the frets and put 10s on mine and had my son in law lutheir set it up better for my taste which it was almost perfect. You don't hardly get that with high end. The nut he said was spot on. Can you imagine? Hahaha. Thanks man. I've made many better videos music wise since this unboxing review day. I still have it and was just playing an hour on it. Hahahaha.
I have this guitar, it feels and plays nice.
That's killer to hear my friend!!!😃😃😃
Robert Clark never thought I could be so happy with a 130.00 guitar. That was the sale price, I think it was 180.00 regularly. It doesn’t play, or feel like a cheap guitar.
I bought mine in 2017! Great guitar!
Thank you. I agree! Hope you are still playing the heck out of it!!😀😀😀😀🎸🎸🎸
@@robertclarkguitar definitely!!! Ready for a humbucker just to see what it'll do!
bought a 2019 bullet tele and strat ,amazing value necks are great ,weight very comfortable so u can stand a gig without ur back bending like with a les paul.great tone thru my fender champion 100w .very impressed with the 2019 models!!
AWESOME!! I want to try the bullet strat soon!!
I found a 2021 FSR deep Blue (LPB) with all the protective plastic still on it. Did as good of a fret job/crown/ends/polish on it as I could. Worked on the intonation and pick up height since and am loving it. Think about changing tuners but they are working fine. Strung it with @Stringjoy 12/54s...doing their 30day challenge right now learning tons
Wow!!! 12s?? That's cool you must have some serious fingers. Hahah. I tried 11s and never 12s. I bet they are very responsive !!! Probably a little neck truss adjusting. Yeah man that's a beauty. My buddy got an LPB and put a black guard on it. Looks amazing. I miss mine. I got begged to sell it for practically nothing to a guy saying his son was handicapped and wanting to take up guitar. I had to. I hope he's enjoying it. It was during the COVID days so I used the money for doc visit anyway. There are many out there so I'll grab another one day. Thank you for the comment !!!!
I got one of these about a year ago (2018) and this is a great guitar. It sounds great and it plays great. The one thing I did upgrade is the tuners - to locking tuners. You wouldn't need to do that, I just did it for personal preference. The really cool thing about it is the neck. It's unvarnished. However, the more you play it, the more it smooths out and feels like you've been playing it for 20 years and gets its own, your own hand made, varnish.
Welcome my friend. And wow excellent comment I agree too! The tuners are one the list. They seem to be great holding tune but they do hold a tiny bit of play here and there but for the price? What is up with these companies making these budget guitars so nicely lately? No complaints!! Peace to you. Happy holiday.
@@robertclarkguitar Happy holidays and happy new year to you as well.
@@tomc.3987 thanks bud!
I've been watching your videos for a few days now. I like your playing style. My wife ordered this exact same guitar for me two days ago from musician's friend and I can't wait to play it. Good video man.
Hey there!! Thank you!!! You will love it. You cannot beat the price ...might just need a little set up. Mine came with 9s and I added 10s and adjusted the neck alittle. The neck is slightly wider too which is great in my opinion. Very good guitars at insane value. I recently regret to have sold mine. I got into a bind. But the good news is I can buy another or 2...later. I hope you enjoy !!!! Thanks again for the kind comment !!!
Hope it's treating you well!!!
I have the squier bullet strat pretty cool guitar. Have a good day. SALUTE ✌ & GOODBYE.
Thank you my friend!!! Its amazing for the price right??
I had to pick one of these bullets up solely because of your video. I purchased the Lake Placid Blue..10/30/21 Guitar Centers in Las Vegas-LPB at $159..Butterscotch at $149 and the ever popular surf Green,eye watering $189 :( sad face..maybe your video raised price on this color world wide.lol. Great videos.Cant wait to learn guitar from your channel. Keep Rockin the vids.
Hey man that is so kind of you!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!! It is with true regret to inform I recently sold mine. Not by choice, but by hard times. The good news is , these are available any time but often they are retailing for more and more. I'll find another one day. I've been concentrating more on my playing and might thin the heard more. I cannot put a favorite down out of all I've had. Every guitar on my channel inspired many song ideas and played well and all stay in tune. Truly appreciate your comment. Thank you for subbing to my channel!!!!!
i've never been a tele man but i can vouch for the bullet range totally. I have a squier mustang and I love it. It sounds lovely acoustically and the pickups are great for most sounds. Its nice clean, overdriven, acoustic anything. I have messed with the wiring and stuff and i'm just not afraid to play with it because its so cheap
I have a bullet strat and a fender duo sonic but this is my favourite
Thank you very much. I love it!!!😀😀😀
I've owned mine that is identical for a couple of yrs. $99 shipped from MF a few yrs ago. Best out of the box Squier I've owned and I've owned about all of them. I changed the pups to Classic American's, and added new hand wired electronics to it and a 5 way switch and it is in a word SUPERB! Just a bargain to be sure. stay safe
Awesome!! Ive thought about building one up myself! Adding some diff pups and locking tuners just to make it my own! Great comment my friend!!!
They're very easy and comfortable to play The Lake. Placid blue is a great looking guitar with the mint green pick guard. Me owning one of these is just going to have to happen one day especially when the price tag is under 200. The nine gauge strings on the Indian Laurel fretboard feel effortless to play.
Totally agree. Great guitars and especially when they went or go in those 119 to 129 sales!!! I keep my eyes open locally. I sold mine last year regretfully. I was too poor during the end of the pandemic.
Very good reviews, Squier is really good guitar. Cheers.
Thank you !😀😀
hi there...bought this one in black....at québec cost 229$.....love the sting also
That's awesome!! Yes they seem to have gotten a price hike. Haha. CA And QUEBEC Always pay higher price which I suppose is a tax adjust? But hell at 229 That is still awesome. I hope you enjoy it!!😃😃😃
thanks man
Just bought Squire Strat for 179 a few days ago after starting guitar. I bought an acoustic but wanted something a bit quieter to practice and I’m am very happy with this thing.
Man thats just fantastic..I have the classic vibe 60s Squier. Also still using the bullet squier in the vid. What a great time to play guitar man!!!! Thank you. Enjoy that killer guitar. The greatest is you can slowly build it up as you desire. Or leave stock. Peace to you and congrats!!!!!
Better tuners , better pickups and a up graded switch plate with better pots. Take it to luthier for a professional set up. Then you will have a super guitar. Most of this work you can do yourself. The luthier will work on the frets, adjust in the saddle, nut and pick up height. I own both the bullet and the affinity tele. Mainly because I’m a sucker for the different colors they come in. They are both a great value. A Mexican telecaster or Stratocaster‘s are worth the money if you can afford them as well. Some people are on tighter budget and the squires are a great way for them to own quality instruments. Even if you don’t upgrade the parts it’s worthwhile to take your guitar for a professional set up. There are good videos on how to polish the frets and file a sharp fret ends.
Indeed Jeff. I still play mine. It's still stock. But I will do more with it soon as I'm able to afford some upgrades. I love the feel of the neck width. And strange thing is it truly sustains well.
These are great, I love mine. I also have an American Professional Tele that cost ten times as much, and the Bullet compares very favorably.
That's great to hear my friend ! It is the first tele I've ever had. I wanted one but couldnt afford much. I'm very happy with it!! I just need to lower the action just a hair. It was very nice out of box!! 119. Usd was a steal! Hahah. The USA models are killer I did try one at a store once that was modded out nice. It was indeed very clean and felt great. They wanted 700 for it. It was not a pro just a USA standard ? Anyway it feels great having the tele to add to my strats
I have an American professional strat, and i love it, but I play my Squier bullet tele ALL THE TIME! Great guitar!
casey lee Every now and then, Squier comes out with a bang for the buck champion model that really smacks it out of the park - the current Bullet Tele is a perfect example. The first batch of Infinity Strats made back in the mid 90’s, with the small headstocks were like that too, astonishingly well built, and effortlessly playable instruments.
I bought a ‘96 for my Niece as her first guitar, put a Seymour Duncan Little ‘59 in the bridge, and WOW! I liked it so much I bought a ‘99 for myself, and I regret eventually trading it in. (I don’t even remember what for....😆) I’m very happy with my current Fender Strat, it’s my #1 forever, but if I ever come across one of those early Affinities again, I might not be able to resist adding to the arsenal.😁👍
Love strats. Those Pros are killer!! I need one in my life. Hell an American special would work for me. Since I love the MIM fsr I have. It can only be better I guess going US. I love the classic vibe tho. My God the time to play is now. Hahahah
That is a face my friend.
i've got a few guitars, but no tele at the moment my next buy will probably be one of these, thanks for the review, and nice noodling at the end, especially for someone who's been playing for a year.
Thank you!! Have you seen my latest stuff? To be fair at the point of this video in 2019 I had about 1 year practicing. Before that I played drums 27 years. Keyboards here and there and I DID tinker with guitar and learned chords. Like 6 chords. But never owned a guitar. Always borrowed for a night or two from bandmates however that was off and on and rare. Ive become huge addicted to it. I love the emotional output of bending a string! Been using interface and making little songs lately on my channel.
@@robertclarkguitar thanks fella will check them out
100% agree with this video. 23 years playing. I own a U.S. Select malaysian blackwood Tele, a handful of MIM teles's, a Vintage V72. $129 I paid in Oct. for the red sparkle finish. Put an unfinished maple neck and a pearloid pickguard on it. (Purely for looks, played fine stock) Left everything else stock. Intonation was dead on out of the box. Even after swapping necks, no setup needed. Pickups are solid. The frets will feel scratchy on bends (sometimes the fret glue residue causes this) but that can easily be polished off. 15 years ago these were awful. Times have changed.
Indeed man!! Thank you!!
Guitar Manifesto sent me here!!! 🤘 🎸 Sub’d!
Cool!! He is a great dude and welcome to my channel!!!! Much appreciated.
The newer vids are probably a bit better. Heheh
@@robertclarkguitar hell yeah! Pretty work bro! Sweet channel. Been watching your videos this morning
Make a kick ass video so people will know about us!
It sure has good tone. I am thinking about adding one to my arsenal.
Thank you. Used in recent video too. Love this thing!!!!
Still yes in 2021. My gig Tele is a Jackson Custom Shop (Washburn Laredo). I have played for hire since 1969. Nearly all cheap guitars need fret ends done, so just dress them. Mine came intonated, set up fine, and tightened truss rod just a touch and set saddles to my liking. I'll upgrade mine to gig with, but out of the box it is a great Indonesian build and for $149, well worth it in 12/2021. Solid poplar body sounds good. The fake gotohs are way better than the old cursed 'trapezoid' garbage that they even put on MIM Fenders. Also, the build quality (and quality control) is better than my new Bullet Stratocaster (yep, Mike Rutherford owns a few, too). And yep #2, I just got the FSR butterscotch with the (basic) maple neck, and it also is a five star best buy. The 42mm nut width my pref over the narrow 40mm Affinity width, and I have medium-only hands. Modern C neck is spot on.
If you finish your fret ends, and decide to roll the edges, be sparing. But it plays killer. I slightly rolled my Indian Laurel fretboard on the Surf Green, and carefully used the Darrell Braun Guitar method (with a touch of file) and a few bucks vs $20 for a fret file . An underrated feature of Teles is that they sound killer into a driven tube amp, not even talking modeling stuff, different topic. No hotter pups, nada. Stock Tele straight into a tube Marshall or my Peavey Classic 20 (monster '93 U.S. 15w super amp). Distortions like my (!!!) DS-1's that don't like high output pickups are the sh*t. This into a DS-1 (or over in a Rat-style) pedal is superb. Teles and chorus pedals sound great, and into a Crybaby are single-coil heaven. Note that my main guitars are Stratocasters (to include my 2015 Custom Shop). But if you're covering Tom Petty, The Church or The Pretenders, gotta have that Tele.
Yes! Buy one (or three) Inflation? Not with these babies. NOT expensive. Except the Sparkle Red beauty is up to $209 and still worth it. I may buy one, lmao!
I've priced guitars for decades. This is a do-buy. And the guy doing the video is cool as sht. Diggin' it.
Wow!!! Thank you so much for the support my friend. The bullet came to me intonated as well. I just put tens on and had my son in law lower action for me .....the wider neck was surely a plus I wasn't expecting. Felt great. Sadly let mine go due to funds. I regret it but I bought it to review and fell in love with it so I kept it. Made tons of vids and music with it. The good news is , many that don't know what they have or don't appreciate them will unload them cheap ...and I will be there to collect a few. Hahahah. Thanks again !!! I'm learning alot as I go here and this axe is a winner.
My Butterscotch FSR arrives Monday, I cannot wait!
John that's awesome. I had one in the basket ready to order. But I would be too afraid to make the BSB version dirty it's so spectacular hahaha. I will get one. Hell at this price I want the Lake placid blue and the BSBlond
Let me know how you like it! Most come in with minimal if any issues lately. And these new ones Do not say bullet on the headstock. Killer bonus. Hahaha.
Robert Clark I scored a blemished FSR Butterscotch from guitar center for $119. I played the red sparkle in the Greensboro store which was also marked as blemished, and damned if I could find anything wrong with it. There was a smudge in the poly under the volume knob, which would have polished right out.
Robert Clark most of the reviews I’ve seen on the FSRBullet say Indonesia has really stepped up the quality control. The timers hold their tune better, and the necks are really smooth. We’ll see.
Robert Clark I really like the look of the maple fingerboard over the rosewood.
Wow,You have a great Channel,a lot of views 👏
Thank you very much. I'm very fortunate that I posted that bullet video. People liked it alot. I wish I had more to review and grow the channel but I'm an oddball. I use just my phone for videos and my "Studio " is a camper. Hahahaha. I truly appreciate your support. I am trying to grow and take the world with me and see my progress. Much appreciated friend
Man, now don´t make my Mouth more watery than it already is ;)) No honestly, i tell you that: The first Squier i had from my Father after he died. That thing was so frickin good, that i had to get another one with Humbuckers in it. That was/is a Affinity Strat. Was top notch aside some LaquerChips near the Neckpocket. After sending some Photos, Thomann gave me a Discount for that afterward. Other than that a superb Guitar. Then at some Point i´ve been aware of the Classic Vibes Series and had to get one of those. This was/is the best Strat ever for me. Super easy playable and with a Sound as stratty as it can get. So all in all i own three Squiers and haven´t regret any buying of these. Top Guitars. Fully recommended from my point on.
TOTALLY feel same!!! Thank you !
Sorry I was tied up responding rather quickly. I am 1. Very sorry to hear about your Dad ..😥 The fact you got his guitar I'm sure is more than just a guitar now. Sentimental value etc. Anyway I hope all is well. And again I'm still so honored and blown away you made that video for me!! Such a great gesture and well , well well done!
I hope you do grab one! If ya do! Let me know what you think and or what you do to it!! Peace to you!
@@robertclarkguitar Thank you so much Robert. Yeah it´s kind of a special Guitar to me. I inherited a lot of his Instruments. Now 3 Years have past since. So .... Time goes on, Life goes on, Music goes on :) Thanks for the kind Words!
Looks great 🤘
Hey thank you!! Most of my actual better stuff is later! Hehe. I used an interface and got a bit better. Thank you so much for the visit you are amazing!!!
ruclips.net/video/aP8B1zg21xA/видео.html This was my keys. Guitar and whole idea. This is much better than the old reviews. Hehhe. Thank YOU!!
Very good electric guitar. I hope one day I will have enough money to buy it. Thank you for reviewing and recommending it
Hello puji! Thank you Sir! My recent videos I made music using it that sounds much better!!! I was still new to it all then. I've come a long way quick and owe alot to the bullet series for its amazing price and its well sought after appeal for its price. You can find these so cheap on sale for 119 usd or used. To be honest most cheap guitars really only need a proper set up and new strings. Ive been enjoying this journey and meeting cool people like you!! Thank you!
@@robertclarkguitar the sound of the guitar is also very good, is your good work also using that guitar?
@@PujiAsmokulo I made a video using the tele 2 days ago. Yup!! Hahah. I love it!!
@@PujiAsmokulo ruclips.net/video/CLXk8BvL6_U/видео.html
@@PujiAsmokulo You should try one my friend!!!
I just got one of these things and it is totally totally awesome out of the box😍 barely even had to tune it.
I got the sparkle red and the Finish is absolutely flawless. So I got a sparkle red pickguard to match and lo and behold when I got the old one (or new old one )off, the body is routed for a humbucker at the neck.
Doesn't really need much of anything as is, but if you like to customize things and put in your own special touches, this would be a great Foundation. Perhaps better quality full size pots, a lite fret polishing would be in order but not severe required. Would be good for lots of customizing fun if you like that sort of thing👍⚡
Live long and prosper🖖🖖🖖
Mega!!! Hello and thank you for your comment. This is servings 1000s of people. I had no idea this video would see 100 let alone 1000 but dang. I am waiting to make a much better video and detail as much as possible. I hope to read some of the positives from this one on its intro to why I felt it was worthy of yet another SHOULD YOU BUY. This was all a result of seeing so many 3000 usd give or take t styles people pay. I had to see what near 100 usd could bring a beginner or collector builder modder or etc alike. And I was so blown away at the fit and finish I had to share. I made it all in one take and used a very bad reference video for sound. I have made many tele bullet tunes on my channel since but I want to buy a strat and bullet and do a review of both in 2021 or sooner. Peace to you and again thank You!!
I just bought a 2020 arctic white affinity squire tele with a maple fretboard. Now made in China.
Pros=full thickness body. Nice shallow u shape neck.
Cons. Would not intonate at all. Bridge mounted 1/4" too far forward. String through holes were offset from bridge.
Crap ceramic pups. Pots, switch and jack total junk. Chrome on the pot metal bridge and control plate scratches if you breath on it.
Besides the neck and body, I had to replace everything and do a complete rebuild before the guitar would even set up. Ive had pretty good luck with Squires in the past. But in the past I always bought from a retailer and played a few before I would buy. This time I bought it on line without hands and eyes on it out of the box. Last time I ever buy a squire direct on line without out handling what i'm buying.
I heard the affinities are now full body! That's cool. I am sorry to hear it wasn't up to par. I've got to try one. I believe these are often purchased to mod. I know the bullet when purchased around 100 usd is a steal. In my opinion. For beginner or modder. Yes indeed I love squiers. Seem to be a good time to own a guitar lower priced.
That would certainly upset me too. If you cannot intonate
Glad you are happy with your choice. I do think you will have a hard time trying to figure out which guitar to get rid of if you think you have too. You enjoy each one and that will make it hard. Can't really see you losing any apart from maybe the M10, but even then I think you will have a hard time.
Where was I? Man you are spot on here! Then again we are pretty often talking about this same thing. Hahaha I'm full of GAS and letting go is hard. Hahaha
@@robertclarkguitar sometimes its hard to let one go when you have GAS! lol
Just purchased a black one in the UK for £109!!!
That's awesome!!
It's crazy, ok I've had to get new strings for it, the factory fitted strings ar in a terrible condition so I got D'Addario EXL110's on recommendation!!
@@stephenwood8453 that's what's on mine! I prefer the Earnie ball 10s, or The XL Dadarios you have. The only issue I have with the Regular XL which are on mine now is, they will rust quicker but that's seemingly due to being out in a camper. Hahah. Hot and cold. Often back and forth. No case. So that's not the strings fault. The earnie balls lasted longer I think. The mild coating they use that or i never used my string ease which I love. Do not spray over or get on your floors. You will fall. Hahaha. Glad you are enjoying friend!!
The GHS boomers are also great. So many decent makers really. The level I haven't tried is the 10 dollar single packs of the supposed higher end Cobalt or etc. Elixers etc. I'm good with my whatever is on sale of the 3 I named. 9.99 usd a 3 pack! Hahah. I have 6 guitars so i need the backups.
Great presentation 🎸😀👍
Thank you John!😎😎
Better recent sound on this guitar!!ruclips.net/video/SZH28csB2PE/видео.html
Good vid man,I have the same guitar here in the u.k, bought it about a year ago, I changed the pickup to a single coil sized humbucker £17 off ebay, sounds great, I also have the same guitar in the limited edition purple from andertons, I have left that one as stock so I've got a single coil tele as well 👍🤘
Smart indeed!! Lovely axe!
Thank you !!
I already have a MIM, and I wanted something a little more "throwaway" but a solid base as a modding project
The ONLY downside (if you can even call it that!) of the Bullet versus the Affinity is the maple board and even THAT is 95% my own vanity - there are so many downsides to the affinity; a lot of them seem to include complaints about fret-sprout!
Thank you for the comment Ginger! I wish they did offer a Bullet maple fingerboard. Hahahah. I have to try those affinites. I'm used to the standard Squier, bullet now from this model and my 2 classic vibe strats. I know this though, squier is nailing it!😀😀😀 THANK YOU!!
@@robertclarkguitar If you are ever tempted to stick a 'vintage style' Humbucker in the neck position - from the bottom of my heart DO IT!
I stuck a Wilkinson M-Series in the neck and a treble bleed on the volume; It adds a beautiful round and thick edge that compliments the stock bridge pickup perfectly!
I'd originally thought to have this guitar as a base for a modding project - maybe plane the front, chamber it and stick a new top on - Nope! Now that it's got the Humbucker and the Treble Bleed I'm leaving it the hell alone and will be "Gig Secondary" perhaps even Primary!
Sounds like a wonderful project I may try!! Thank you!!😀😀😀
Btw 2020 affinity teles are string thru with a full thickness body and a beefy u shape neck.
Thank you! Yes they changed the spec this year. Hahah. I must try one. But I need an LP style guitar next.
I ordered one last week. The sparkle red one. It will be here tomorrow. Can't wait. Sounds like you've been playing longer than a year. Guess I need to practice more..haha
Thank you. I hop you enjoy it!! I played drums 27 years. Taught my son guitar chords and he got really good fast. Fast forward 2018 I picked up taught myself from there only knowing basic chords. Hahah. My recent vids will show my progress!! Thank you very much!!!!
One note: I just got a Surf Green bullet tele that was made in December 2022 and it is a toploader and not a string-through. Kind of a disappointment but it does rip though so I can handle it.
Oh wow they might have changed the design ??? I am glad you like it too!!!!
Mine's a 2018, surf green, 7 lbs., 2 ounces. Probably the best guitar I own. I did the Bill Kirtchen mod, and changed the pots to 250K Fender pots, and popped in an orange drop capacitor. Obscene amount of quality and value for a cheap indonesian guitar. I have several USA and European made vintage acoustic and electric guitars worth many thousands, but this Bullet Tele is the best value for the price guitar I ever owned. Legit.
That is awesome my friend. Says alot about the Squier line of recent.
@@robertclarkguitar Indonesians are on point. They take more pride in their craftsmanship. That's what it says. They can outdo the Chinese who make the more expensive Squier Affinity line. China made Affinities can't even make their Telecasters string through body and their pickups suck. They're both supposed to be entry level beginer guitars, but Bullet series offers more to the beginer than Affinity
I agree, bullets rock. Also, get a pro setup. Worth every penny.
It seems most issue is set up ...man its unbelievable once a guitar is truly set up right. I had been strumming off and on over the years and never realized how good a set up turns the thing I to a power steering vs none. HahH.
Got one but had to change the nut, had fret buzz. I lined the pickup pockets and pick guard with metallic tape. Polished frets, and added mini Seymour Duncan little 59 bridge pickup.
Wow!! Ive not yet done anything but set up and polish frets. Hahahahah. Put 10s on it. It is one amazing little axe. I call it little by price. But its a great guitar. I bet that Lil 59 screams!!!!! Did you use the stock bridge?
It's a beautiful looking axe, Robert, and great sounding too! I enjoyed your video and may consider looking at a Squier Jaguar or Jazzmaster type model if there is one.
Thank you!! I still use mine! Love this one and my classic Vibe 60s!! Beautiful tele and strat!!
Thanks I just got one.
Wow!!! How is it treating you??? I'm sure you are pleased!!
New strings, a few truss rod twists, and make sure the nut is cut right and your good to go.
Indeed!!!
Hey Robert, your comment about having too many guitars and getting to the point where you'll have to let some of them go... I've had that conversation with my wife, and I know that I'm running out of space... But hey, it's NOT HOARDING if it's guitars, right?
Hahahah so true. Sadly however , during COVID , I sold several along with my keyboard. That was painful. Lol. But I have about 5 now I think. Each play well!!! Hey Merry Christmas Happy New year
I put a backbone on mine.
Do you have a cable or play non cable also I'm thinking on singing and going on American got talent is it good quality
I used a cable direct to Boss Gt1! This was my old playing clip at end. Hahah. My recent videos will show the progress I've come a long way i think. Also yes. This guitar is surely good for its price and good for any player once its set up to your liking!! Thank You! AGT! Hope you make it man!!
Robert Clark thank you
NO PROB. THANK YOU!!!
The difference between the Bullet and Affinity is better tuners and larger pots in the Affinity
Vs better voiced pups and stringthru I guess? Both great value!
I cannot make a proper assessment of the two since I have no 2019 affinity. I think both are great value and the things I've heard on RUclips lead me to agree that both are killer ....The price is what's crazy right? Stellar.
And a string through body on the Bullet.
Does the affinity have the narrow nut same as squire affinity strat.?
@@edwardthompson9981 I believe it does. I like the 42m on the bullet more. But that is personal preference. Unless they have changed
i got one its my fav guitar , but ,,, i had to change the nut , for a bone one
and also the strat spacing as found the bullet too wide , and high E was to close to the egde , now it just feels right
best tele ever now .
Awesome man!!!😀😀😀
I was considering one of the affinity telecasters.
The 2020 affinites I hear now are better!!!! Full size and string thru!
nice demo ! would you suggest as uber warm clean jazz beast and also a lead sound beast? ( for the warmth i cant' afford a expensive hollowbody)
Hsh s series Ibanez or their art core or I'm not too sure other than those. Most of your tones can be dialed in on any guitar I think ...
I absolutely love mine. It's neck is better than the Affinity! Unfortunately mine wasn't set up and I had trouble with the switch and I was going to ship it back and it was going to be a ordeal so I checked all the screws and the switch was loose. I didn't have to ship it back!
Man thats terrible you had a dud out of box. But thats not too bad ...I know the main thing is feel and minor solder issues are abundant on big large mass production. That keeps the price right. Heheheheheh. Kick butt Phillip!!! Glad you like it!!!
@@robertclarkguitar Sometimes common sense comes in handy instead of shipping everything back. I was afraid I'd blow my warranty. I don't modify I buy a guitar with my desired features. I'm all set NOW.
@@phillipholt6005 perfectly said! Ive said this before. Why buy a guitar and plan to mod it before you even got it? I've seen and heard this all over. It's a fad. If I don't like the sound I don't buy buy it. When buying online I use these videos to see. A risk but I know what I am pretty much getting. If it is a good one its a good one for good. Hahahaha.
I bought my SQUIRE Strat from Sam Ash new in the box but it's pots and pickups are FENDER American made. My friend has same guitar with Squires electronics.
You sounded like David Gilmour!!!
Thank you! That made my day! Haha
Hi, but set up Is original? This Guitar have a action wery low! I love this Guitar, i wont buy this "Black"!! 😀 Congratulations for Your new guitar! and for your playng!. What type of amp you use? and pedals? Good music! 👏👏👏
Hello Max!!! I was using a Boss Gt1 multi effects...Now I use a Me80 very similar. I regret I sold my guitar here but I will buy many more. I got too hard up on finances. Again these are simply amazing!!!!! Thanks again!!!! I make alot of ambient stuff too. Mostly relaxing stuff. Hahah. Thanks again !!! Hope you have happy Holiday !!!!!
And also, if you want a even better one, save an extra hundred dollars for the the classic vibe 50's butterscotch tele!
(by squier)
I love those!! I have 60s classic vibe strat! 😄 thank you
Can I use this guitar professionally???
Why not?
Hahah I would use it if i needed to...as a gigging guitar. Yup. Beater or anything. Hahah. Thanks man.
What pedal or effects are you using? Sounds awesome, pink Floydish love it
Wow thank you very much indeed. I was a bit sloppy here. Heheheh. But I am using Boss Gt1! A beautiful effects processor pedal!!
Go online & use your tracking number... Track your shipment on your shipping co's website. Then click on shipment details, and the shipment weight will be displayed with other shipment data.
Hi there thank you so much! That is great idea!!! It turned out to be over 7.5 lbs I'm still loving it.
You're no beginner! Got some chops there!
Hey there Bob!!! Wow thank you very much indeed!!!!😀😀😂😂😂😂😇😇🎸🎸🤭 I appreciate that. My apology on late response.
Great demo! What amp and wattage? Peddles?
Hi. I'm using a Boss GT1 ....Headphone out to PC speakers here! Thank you!!!
Wow.... over 26,000 views now? Such a beautiful guitar! Do you still use it?
Hey man. Yup still using it!!! Hahah
Look up the serial number to see how old it is. I am a beginner too and bought a affinity tele on the facebook market place for 120$ selling it now and upgrading to a bullet only because i hate the color lol, the guitar itself is awesome
Hi buddy. I forgot when but I believe it was Aug 2019 build. When I checked. Something like mid summer or fall. It doesnt have the Bullet logo which is a sign of the newest models. 2019. Yeah man if you can go to the guitar center or Sam ash or etc. Buy one you like and ask them if you buy will they set it up and if so you'll take one!! Win win. Hahah. Myself and countless others are loving these things. Keep in mind its 129 ish give or take depending on sale but these are kick ass for the price. And if it was 200 I'd be happy. Hahah. Anyway I want to buy a bullet Strat next to learn to mod etc. Peace man!! Thank you for the comment. Hope to see you again soon !!
Sweetwater says they're discontinuing the bullet. Affinity has an HH model at the same price. The affinity original is?$20 higher now.
Oh man. I hope not. They will lose money. Well more sales. Hah. I'm sure stepping up 20 more if that's the case will be just as great. I only chose the bullet because it was so silly affordable. I didnt expect it to play so well. Hahah.
Guitar Center still has them. My local one had 5 in stock including the floor model. Now they only have 5 total :).
Suft green?
Yes. They left the Seafoam name but most see it as Surf green. Lol.
It is a great guitar. fyi: body is poplar
Thank you!!! Yeah. I only brought up the wood not being always as listed as that is what Squier said. Whatever they sourced at the time may not be in the ad. Prob is poplar! Hahaha. Thanks again!!!!
spongebob not lookin too hot back there
Lmao!! Hes been tortured by a pomeranian half his size!! Lmao thank you for watching and commenting man!!!!😀😀😀😂😂
Sorry. Once you've played a Fender Telecaster, the Bullet just doesn't feel right. Get yourself a used MIM telecaster.
Thanks man. I understand how the MIM feel. I own a couple of strats. Considering the price on this ? I'd play the hell out of it! Of course Fender is best. Hahah. Thanks buddy!!🙂🙂
Feels right to me. Comfortable to play and sounds great right out of the box. Easily a great starter guitar or even an intermediate player. My only complaint was the fret work but that comes with every guitar whether it's $150 or $4,000. I have zero regrets in getting this guitar and it'll likely get played the most for both sound and feel quality.
Do you get a cable with it
No cable but you'll get the tools for intonation and etc. Cable will be needed if you do not have one. But at this price it's still amazing quality.
Enabler! I should not have see this video. I just bought it. In Lake Placid Blue :-)
Hahahahah. Watch my recent vids with this guitar! I left a link. It will sound way better than what I pasted in here. Hahahaha. Appreciate the comment and perhaps one day ill do a video shoutinf out all that commented they purchased. I hope to hear back when you receive it! Another buddy bought the LPB and put a black guard on it. Omg!! Stellar. I believe you'll be stunned at the amount of axe for the money! And the only complaint tone wise I had here was bridge pup. If its too tele bright the tone knob works great!!! You can mod the heck out of it too. The wider neck is a godsend too at this price. Peace to you!! Hope to see you again soon!!
