Fender Review: Squire Affinity Strat

Fender Electric Guitars

History:

Purchase: This was a rental and came with a Squire practice amp for $30 a month.. even that was more that this POS is worth...

What I Like About This Fender Squire Affinity Strat: Not much. The way it looks, I guess... nice finish, smooth neck.

What I Do NOT Like About The Fender Squire Affinity Strat: Just about everything. Anybody who says this guitar is decent is on crack. It's a pice of sh*t. The sound is absolutely brutal, w/ distortion twice as bad no matter how clean you play anything. Comes out of tune frequently, the strings aren't very good quality.

Fender Squire Affinity Strat Quality Rating: Not too bad. It's a sturdy guitar. Strings are cheapo's. I liked the feel of it.

Review Summary: WARNING DO NOT BUY!!! Not even as a first guitar. Do not even rent. Hell, I'd be wary of trying out this POS in the store!

Rating of this Fender product: 1
