    Great review John and a big shout out to Nick for donating the guitar to such a worthy cause!
  • @Tomtoms-tomtoms
    I own a few CV Squier’s and love them.. great guitars at a nice price
  • Tuesday was my NGD, as my Pacifica 112L was ready. As a left, the only choice is the "natural" colour, which doesn't do it for me. So, I have a tech who refinishes guitars and now she's a lovely matte Sedona Red stain with black pickguard and knobs. The pickups in the bridge and middle are stock, but now the H has a chrome cover and the middle SC is black. The neck pickup is a Filtertron clone in chome and black, combining the look of the other two. She looks and plays great and I'm taking my first tentative steps to playing some rockabilly.

    "stratty thing on a stratty day and a stratty tone" 😂 Nice off-the-cuff playing throughout the review. They seem like a nice little guitar.

    Ive got a Squier Classic Vibe 50's Tele. Great guitars.
  • Cracking video John. Really interesting to see the comparison between the Classic Vibe and the Sire. Two of the 3 guitars I'm torn between. The Vintage V6 is the 3rd. Some of the higher spec'd Jet guitars are intriguing too
  • I want one of these and vintage white 50s. Going to be letting my amazing Harley Benton Fusion T go to try and score one
  • @jeffroq
    Position 2 is quacky. I like it. 🦆
  • @adrian_V99
    Indeed it does sound like a Strat! I rented the same one with pau ferro fretboard and didn't buy, lacked sparkle and spank of the maple one. Very good guitar at any price point.
  • @fabioa.565
    This squier classic vibe 70 seems like the old squier vintage modified 70 with different pickups that I had a few years ago.

    When you open a Gibson box and out comes a Fender... that's how you play AUTHENTC!
  • @ybabredi
    I actually like the sounds you’re getting here John. I have one complaint. Why don’t they do a bullet style truss rod adjustment? Instant 70s look and very functional. Probably budget related.

    Alternatives: Cort g260 (vintage type) or G280 (more modern) Tokai AST 52 (China) FGN Boundary Odyssey ( Hardtail, Japan) G&L Tribute: Legacy, S500. ESP LTD SN 200 W or WM ( out of production, wilkinson trem) Vintage v6 Yamaha Pacifica 112v or 212v. Ibanez AZES or SA 260, 360,460.

    I'm really looking forward to finishing my Vintage Strat rebuild BUT I sprayed it in Nitro and it takes 4-6 weeks to dry - I have a headline Gig in the City Centre 30th October, I'm hoping I can use it for that but I really think I'll have to put it together 'Unpolished' - I do think it'll be one hell of a guitar when it's done tho!

    Nice budget guitar, one of the better Squiers , a cheap David Gilmour look, great guitar to mod, bump up the pick ups. You play so well John, excellent again.
