General
Itching to get your hands on an affordable yet sonically wide-ranging electric guitar? If so, the Squier Sonic Stratocaster HSS is an outstanding option. Here, 'HSS' refers to the pickup configuration, which plants a humbucker in the bridge position plus one single-coil in the middle and another at the neck. This load-out allows this Squier Strat to spit anything from beefed-up rock sounds and warm leads to sparkling cleans. What's particularly interesting for beginners is that poplar body, which is a tad slimmer and lighter than a standard Fender Stratocaster.
The Sonic Stratocaster HSS: Up-to-Snuff Playability
As always, Squier have made sure the Sonic Stratocaster HSS has a nice and comfortable playing feel. The maple neck has a satin-gloss finish which combines with a snug C-profile and a traditional 9.5-inch fretboard radius, while another welcome bonus comes in the form of a vintage-style tremolo bridge which fully supports vibrato effects. Despite its keen price, this entry-level axe also boasts flat saddles which make a comfortable spot to rest your right hand.
