Product Description

Squier's best-selling Affinity Series serves as a superb gateway into the Fender family. Perfect for beginners seeking a great-quality guitar from the get-go — with easy playability, legendary tone and timeless style — Squier's affordable Affinity instruments are also made to suit home hobbyists and seasoned pros looking for their next inspiring sound.

The Squier Affinity Stratocaster is an obvious choice for today’s aspiring guitar hero. Boasting several player-friendly features, such as a thin Poplar body and a lean “C”-shaped Maple neck, the Affinity Strat's flexible trio of single-coil pickups is arguably its most appealing attribute — providing vibrant, jangly tones ideal for classic rock and contemporary pop!
