Squier Affinity Series Telecaster Indian Laurel (Race Red)
The Squier Affinity Telecaster IL (Race Red) is a 6-String Electric Guitar with a Poplar Body, a Maple Neck and an Indian Laurel Fingerboard, from Squier’s Affinity Series. The Affinity Tele is one of the best value Electric Guitars on the market, and this model delivers solid sound and aesthetics thanks to 2x Standard Single-Coil Tele Pick-Ups combined with a stylish 1-Ply White Pickguard.
Equipped with a Maple Neck, this Guitar has a "C"-shaped profile with an Indian Laurel Fingerboard adorned with White Dot Inlays and 21x Medium Jumbo Frets. 3-way Pick-Up Switching offers an array of versatility, whilst a 6-Saddle Hardtail Bridge with Cast Saddles creates a slightly "slinkier" feel by reducing the break angle of the Strings over the Saddles. The 6x individual Saddles can be adjusted for precise intonation along each String.
The main features of the Squier Affinity Telecaster IL (Race Red) include:

Una chitarra dal rapporto qualità/prezzo incredibile, suona come la "sorella maggiore" di casa fender. Timbro eccellente, manico in acero che rende lesecuzione scorrevole, adatta a qualsiasi tipologia di musicista sia professionista che principiante. Niente da invidiare a chitarre di prezzo superiore. Grande acquisto.

Squier Affinity Tele Blond - great sound and amazing value!
Guitar was setup very well. Intonation spot-on. Low action, frets levelled and a very comfortable neck - easy to play out of the box. Great tone from bridge and neck pickups. Overall quality very impressive for a guitar at this low price point. Would make an ideal first guitar or as a basis for making upgrades.

When you see this guitar in person, you can't believe the quality and how it feels in your hands. The sound as well is great. I would give to this guitar the "best value for money" prize!

It’s been a while since I bought a squier. 24 years in fact. And boy have they used that time well. Picking up the guitar it has a build quality that surpasses its price point. A great finish over a nice looking body. Beautiful light maple neck and fretboard. And solid feeing hardware. The only criticism is expected and that’s a little roughness on the fret ends that you can’t see with the naked eye. And can be fixed easily with a sanding block.
Acoustically it gives off more volume than my squier strat. Up and down the neck you can feel where the frets need to be played in built there isn’t a trace of buzz. Plugged in through my Marshall it sounds like a traditional tele. The brightness and twang when clean but happy to have a bit of a growl when the gain is nudged in the right direction.
I bought this purely to give me something to look forward to during Covid lockdown. But I love it already. Looking forward to getting to know it better and finding out what it can do.
