Description
Squier's Contemporary Stratocaster Special was made for the adventurous guitarist, boasting a fully-new pickup configuration and a wicked-fast neck. If you've been looking for a powerful guitar that can keep up with the demands of the modern musician, you need to check out this awesome new axe from Squier.
This Stratocaster sports an unbelievably comfortable roasted maple neck that makes for effortless riffing and shredding. Its 12" radius fingerboard flattens out toward the body, accommodating advanced techniques and faster playing. And, thanks to its jumbo frets and sculpted neck heel, you'll be able to bend with ease in the upper register.
The real showstopper on this guitar, though, is the ultra-unique pickup combination that unlocks loads of great new tones. This Contemporary Strat Special comes equipped with three angled Squier SQR single-coils, with the middle pickup scooted closer to the bridge. Pumping out glassy mids and chiming highs, this pickup arrangement adds bite and crunch to your playing. Complete with a 5-position blade pickup switch, this Strat has a ton of sonic versatility on tap.
Squier's Contemporary Stratocaster Special puts a unique spin on the classic Strat design, offering a bold new sound designed for guitarists who were born to stand out.
