Squier FSR Classic Vibe '50s Telecaster MN Sonic Blue
Telecaster electric guitar with poplar body and Alnico single-coil pickups
The Squier FSR Classic Vibe '50s Telecaster MN Sonic Blue celebrates the birth of the first electric guitar in the 1950s, offering authentic vintage specs at a surprisingly beginner-friendly price. Accordingly, as with the original from the pen of Leo Fender, Squier relies on a lightweight poplar body, which together with the Alnico single-coil pickups embodies the basis for the crisp Telecaster sound. The bolt-on maple neck with its slim "C" profile furthermore offers comfortable playing characteristics, so that every note comes out of the fingers as if by itself. High-quality Hardware in the form of the typical 3-saddle strings-through-body bridge and precise vintage-style tuners completes the Squier FSR Classic Vibe '50s Telecaster MN Sonic Blue.
The Squier FSR Classic Vibe '50s Tele convinces with authentic twang sounds in vintage style.

As a relative novice to playing guitar this Squier Classic Vibe Telecaster ticks all of the boxes. Authentic vintage look, lovely tint to the neck. Plays well straight from the box. Nicely weighted, not too heavy. Lovely “twangy” sound as you would expect. For a Chinese produced item it is very, very good. Well done Fender for getting the QC right.

The guitar arrived the same week I ordered it. Very impressive ! It plays nicely and the quality is actually better than I expected for an entry level guitar.

Earlier this year, I decided I'd like a telecaster style guitar to give me an alternative to my Fender Strat. Originally purchased a G&L tele from a firm who shall remain nameless (hint: they're named after the generic name for the things I'm talking about in this review, times two!). Unboxing said item, I was really underwhelmed - it didn't come in its original G&L packaging for starters - and I ended up sending it back. Forgot about a new guitar for a few months until I came across the Fender Squier Classic Vibe 50s in Butterscotch. Loved the understated look, a proper "classic" look in this particular finish. Read some glowing reviews, looked around for the best price and found it here at DV247. Bit the bullet, and it was delivered without a hitch a few days later (think it's shipped over from Germany). The package weighed a ton! Well packaged by DV247, and inside another sturdy box well packaged by Fender - I should have done an unboxing video! When I finally got to the guitar - a thing of beauty! Albeit understated, as I said before. The most impressive thing? All that way from Indonesia, halfway across the world to Germany, then via courier to my door - the damned thing is still in tune!!! Buy one!
