Squier Affinity Series Strat, dark blue, made in Indonesia 2011. This is a handy little guitar, it'd certainly get a beginner off to a great start. The Indo-made Squiers are renowned for great build quality, and this feels classy in the hands. It's had a mod: the second tone knob has been replaced with a switch that engages the neck pickup in any position, so you can run bridge + neck or all three pickups together if you please. It's surprisingly handy and opens up some additional fatness in the tone. If you're after a clean, classy basic Strat, this will do the trick.

The back has some minor marks, most notably on the body carve and behind the cavity cover. There's some marks around the sides, mostly near the input jack and on the shoulder carve area. The front is pretty clean, just some dimples near the jack and some play scratching on the guard and top horn. Overall: very good condition (8/10).

Playing condition notes: Action is low, neck is straight, intonation is good, truss rod works. All electrics tested and working properly. Frets look great, they're almost new; 9/10 for life left. Setup with fresh 10/46s playing just fine!
