Squier Classic Vibe 70s Telecaster Deluxe Black 2022
Squier Tele Deluxe, black , made in Indonesia 2022. The Squier Classic Vibe series are the fanciest offerings in their line, they're well made guitars. The tortoise shell on black finish is a cool look, it pairs with the bold logos and Strat-style headstock nicely. I really enjoy the neck on this, it's a slim rounded shape and feels really comfy in the hands. The tone is a beefier, thicker take on the classic Tele-twang, great if you're switching between lead lines and rhythm parts and perfect for punk especially. This one lived with our house tech for a while, and he did some upgrades: re-wired with new guts, a new guard, and new Schaller 'S' stamped tuners. He didn't want to put F-key tuners on there, as he felt the 'S' for Squier was more appropriate/more funny. It's a very savvy score for someone now, as it's playing and sounding top notch.
