Squier 2-Point Synchronized Tremolo with block tailpieces
Squier Sealed Die-Cast tuners with "Split Shaft" axles
Modern Stratocaster guitar with versatile sound.
An ideal combination of classic vintage Strat style and modern features, the Squier Limited Edition Contemporary Stratocaster Special RMN Daphne Blue is aimed at modern players. For this purpose, the Stratocaster from the Contemporary series relies on three Squier SQR Alnico single coils, whose special configuration provides an enormous variety of tonal possibilities from classic single coil sounds to the penetrating, juicy sound of a bridge humbucker. In addition, a neck with 22-fret fretboard made of roasted maple is used, which thanks to the heat treatment provides additional stability and a particularly smooth feel for the picking hand. The Squier Contemporary Stratocaster Special RMN Black is completed by a 2-point Tremolo and tuning stable die-cast tuners.
The Squier Limited Edition Contemporary Stratocaster Special RMN Daphne Blue is ready for just about any fun with its special pickup setup.
The Sculpted Neck Heel promises unobstructed access to the high registers of the roasted maple neck.
Classic Style and modern handling
As a modern player guitar, the Contemporary Stratocaster Special combines traditional Strat styling with contemporary playability. While the classic"Contour Body" shaping allows the poplar body to lie close with optimal balance, the Sculpted Neck Heel promises unhindered accessibility to the high registers. The silky Finish of the Roasted Maple neck and the pleasantly slim "C" profile with a flat 12" fingerboard radius (305 mm) also offer comfortable playing characteristics.
The special arrangement of the SQR Alnico Single Coils and the 5-way circuit promise a particularly rich sound spectrum for almost every situation.
Single coils in a special configuration
With three SQR Alnico single coils in an innovative configuration, the Contemporary Stratocaster Special elicits a wide variety of guitar sounds from the guitar amplifier, ranging from the enormously transparent sound of individual single coils to the juicy rock sound of the bridge and middle pickups combined into one humbucker. In addition to the 5-way switch for selecting the pickup combination, the electric guitar has a master volume and a classic treble control for adjusting the tone.
Black sealed die-cast tuners keep the Squier Contemporary Strat Special securely in the correct tuning.
Reliable hardware equipment
Last but not least, Squier equips the Limited Edition Contemporary Stratocaster Special RMN Daphne Blue electric guitar with reliable attachments that promise long-lasting playing pleasure. While the buttery-smooth handling of the 2-Point Synchronized Tremolo allows you to embellish melodies and chords with shimmering pitch changes, six block string tabs guarantee precise adjustment of intonation and string action. In addition, on the black lacquered headstock, six Squier Sealed die-cast tuners ensure precise and robust tuning of the electric guitar.

Squier Limited Edition Contemporary Stratocaster Special RMN Daphne Blue
It doesn't have the craftsmanship of a 2000€ custom shop guitar, but for the price that you pay, it's basically flawless.
No sharp fret-ends, the setup that came on the guitar was great, a tiny bit of fret-buzz around the middle of the 5th but not an issue when played through amp / DAW and the action was perfect.
No cosmetic flaws whatsoever, the Daphne blue looks gorgeous in person and i personally can't stop staring at this guitar.
Stays in tune really well even with vigorous tremolo usage and temperature changes thanks to the roasted maple neck.
There's no way i'd pay double the money for an entry level fender when this thing exists.
