Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar guitar review
Before I tried the '70s Stratocaster at Sam Ash over the weekend, I saw they had a Surf Green Squier Jag in stock. So I tried it out.
This was actually the second time I ever played a Squier Jag. The first one, also from the same store, sucked. And the reason it sucked is because it wasn't set up at all and the bridge saddles were completely set up wrong. However, this one was in much better shape. While it wasn't perfectly set up, it wasn't all out-of-whack like the first one I tried before was.
So anyway, on to the review.
Yesterday I had to go out and buy some guitar strings at Sam Ash in Tampa, and while there tried out two guitars, the above being one of them, a Fender Classic Series '70s Stratocaster in natural finish with the maple neck/maple fingerboard.
Is the Fender Stratocaster (the above is a LPB color) a good guitar? Yes. Modern machining and manufacturing technologies make that possible (the same the reason Squier makes such good guitars these days as well).
Personally, I think that yes, the Fender Stratocaster is an overrated guitar. Good guitar as I said above, but overrated.
