Product Description

The Bullet Series is the definitive Squier beginner range. A starting point for many aspiring guitarists, this best-selling lineup is still going strong several years after its introduction. And you’ll find that many musicians started their musical journey with a Squier Bullet Stratocaster!

This limited edition FSR version boasts a stunning Black Metallic finish that's certain to stand out on-stage! Other key appointments include and a rock-solid hardtail bridge and a versatile HSS pickup configuration.

Solid Construction

Squier's Bullet Strat features a lightweight Poplar body that serves as a balanced tonal foundation for its pickups. The body is joined to a comfortable "C"-shaped Maple neck, which brings out plenty of upper mid-range bite and top-end vibrancy - giving notes a snappy and immediate response.

Satin-Finished Neck

While affordable guitars are getting better, you'll still find that many will feature sticky gloss-finished necks. The Squier Bullet Stratocaster is an exception, with a smooth satin-finished neck that provides a fast and slippery feel that won't hinder your playing at all!

Versatile Electronics

The iconic Fender Stratocaster has always been distinctive for its triple threat of single-coil pickups. This FSR Bullet Strat largely adheres to that classic formula, but has been equipped with a powerful bridge humbucker that delivers thick and punchy tones with overdrive or distortion.

Use the 5-way pickup switch to isolate each pickup and access different combinations for a wide tonal palette. Further control is also provided via the master volume knob and tone controls.

Bought based on a recommendation to go HSS - and for the money, it has proven an excellent first guitar.

Excellent build quality for 150£. Wasn't expecting the guitar to be this good for this sort of money. Don't know if it was because it's a limited run, but this Indonesian Squier came very well setup from factory. Only thing I can point out is that the frets need a lot of polishing as they are very (and I mean very) rough. Strings grind on top of the frets, but this is very fixable and I will be doing it myself, when I can spare some time for it. :)

Great value for £149. Just added Tusq nut and new Wilkinson Tuners and a set-up. Sounds far better than my Mex Tele. Very light weight, great neck and great sounding humbucker in the bridge.
