The Squier Strat HSS has legendary style


 The silhouette of the Stratocaster might be the most recognizable guitar design of all time. A who's who of rock, country and blues heroes have all been drawn to its classic, svelte shape. When you pick up the Squier Strat HSS, you'll instantly feel that history. The poplar body also gets a limited-edition finish, making it look even hipper when you sling it on your shoulder.

An impressive pickup selection


 Squier re-voiced the pickups on the Affinity Series Stratocaster. Dual single coils offer smooth, balanced sounds; the bridge humbucker has more attitude. It's a potent combination for all styles of music.

Hardware that's more reliable than ever

With a Stratocaster tremolo, you can "shake" single notes or entire chords, allowing you to put more personality into your playing. Squier updated the tremolo on the HSS, making the action smoother with less friction. This means you'll be able to stay in tune longer. The tuners have a split-shaft design, eliminating the possibility of getting poked by a sharp string end.

This Strat is affordable, and formidable

With a limited-edition finish, versatile pickups and a playability that belies the price, this Squier offers a lot of bang for the buck. If you've been searching for a first guitar or a second backup, it's hard to beat the Squier Limited-Edition Stratocaster HSS. A case is available separately.
