General

Adorned with sumptuous details and made using high-quality parts, the Squier 40th Anniversary Stratocaster Gold Edition has been designed to celebrate forty years of Squier-by-Fender. While most of the Squier models released since the take-over in 1982 have been affordable, entry-level guitars, the Stratocaster Gold Edition is definitely part of a higher tier, making it a great addition to the collection of any Squier-and-or-Fender devotee.

The 40th Anniversary Stratocaster Gold Edition: A Beauty to Behold

As its name suggests, this shimmering Strat dons gold-plated hardware as well as a gold scratch plate made of anodised aluminium. To complete its special aesthetic design, Squier have fitted a large '70s-style headstock and a bound laurel fretboard finished with pearloid block position markers, while the signature Strat-sound of this commemorative electric guitar is taken care of by a solid nyatoh body armed with three Fender-Designed Alnico 5 single-coil pickups.

Perfecte gitaar voor mijn mening!
Kan bijna niet het verschil met een echte Fender horen.
Laat de review van Yannick je zeker niet afschrikken, want hij was denk ik in de war door het
puntensysteem ;)

Prachtig ding en klinkt super. Heb mijn gedacht over Squier toch echt moeten bijstellen na aankoop van deze prachtige gitaar !
