Squier Sonic Stratocaster HT H Lime Green 2024
Squier Sonic Stratocaster HT H Lime Green LGR Ltd Web Exclusive 2024 in a nice green color. Do not get confused, it looks only bright cause of outside filmed in bright sun light. In real it is a darker green.
Pro
Light weight, unique color, 1 pickup configuration, nice figured maple neck, good tuners, well balanced
Con
Sharp fret ends, sharp fret board edges and not rounded, to me harsh sound of the pickup, low output of the pickup (on Squier Sonic Esquire HT H the value is doubled)
Anyway, to me a keeper, cause I wanted a green guitar as a fan of TYPE O NEGATIVE and SOULFLY :-). But I do not like signature models, I need my own one for less money. I already modified mine.

Comparison guitar Harley Benton TE-62CC LPB versus TE-20MN BM, sound only. Low budget guitar vs. lowest budget guitar. What you can not hear and see is how the playability or the feeling while playing is.

Never had such a bad / worse quality guitar new out the box.

Harley Benton R-457FFB Roasted MultiScale 2023 - FANCY 7 STRING FLIP FLOP BLUE
nice, if fender puts these on sale for $140 like they did the single pickup hardtail Strat I will get one, I just ordered the lime green Strat straight from Fender for $140 last night. You can actually get another 10% off that if you subscribe to text alerts or something. I want the Esquire for country picking though, so if that bucker dont twang I would get a humbucker that coil splits and does a really good single coil sound too, but i am pretty sure i can make one of those twang even with the stock non-splitting humbucker
nice review, that one camera angle you did really showed the action very well
Glad you enjoyed it
I have 6 HB CSTs. I've upgraded all of them and had them set up at a luthier. They are great guitars. The frets are stainless steel, and mine have always been perfectly fine. I replaced the wraparound bridge with a Schaller Signum wraparound and the tuners with locking tuners on the paradise flame like this one. I replaced the pickups with Seymour Duncan JB & Jazz. These are absolutely wonderful guitars.
Great!!!!!
Thank you!
What's it like to play. This is the exact one i want to get
My Squier Sonic Strat HT H needed some work before it played good to me. Fretboard edge was quite sharp as well as sharp fret ends. Check my description for more details. Now for me it is a good playable guitar, compared to standard stratocaster, the body is a little thinner and there I feel a slight different while playing. Most important despite the low weight it is not neck heavy :). The sound of the pickup might be not for everyone, I already changed them.
Cool video,how much does it weight?
Thank you, the weight is 3,3kg.
Pastillas Rosswel o EMG?
Roswell active Pickups
Bro great video what is your recomendation in guitars harley benton this is guitar te 69 is beautiful guitar is better ?? Or cst-24t or te 62 db te 70 deluxe ???
With TE-62 I had good expierence, only the neck pickup I changed to an cheap amazon Fleor. TE-69 the bridge pickup to me sounded also not that good and it is a chunky Tele... around 4kg... if you do not mind... go for it. CST-24 I had several and pickup sound was not convincing and often they showed bad fret work / fret buzzing. I still have one CST and will try to change pickups.
Oh bro what you recomended the te 52 or te 69 mi friend ???? Thanks great video bro
TE-52 and TE-69 are both on the heavier side approx 4 kg. In this case take the one which looks better to you. Playability will be comparable on both. TE-62 has less weight around 3,4 kg but not the nice natural color ;-)
Sell me this one 😊
Already gone :)
Got this today and returning it tomorrow, sorry , I wanted to like this but , I love the look , but it had sharp edges on every single fret hurt my hand to go up and down on it , and then the humbucker sounded thin and shrill almost like a single coil . Just felt and sounded worse than 160$ asmuse or donners , in fact those guitars are leagues better , the only cool thing about this guitar is the finish , I guess if you wanted to mod it but man I had the roughest neck I ever played highly disappointed. More so in the sound of the pickup very very weak and shrill , I'm playing it through a fender mustang Lt 25 .
This sounds exactly like what I expierenced with this orange Squier HH Tele ua-cam.com/video/M816uwa9VBE/v-deo.html A nightmare of quality. Really disappointing that they put QC sticker but not doing QC check. At least they are selling a new product which should have no issues beside basic setup. Sorry to hear
Not gonna get an HM-2 tone out of an ODB-3, it’s a great bass distortion pedal though.
I like it too, a good dirt machine
Getting this one 👍
Hope you will be happy with it.
how is the neck feeling? and also action?
Action on mine is now approx. E 1,7mm and e 1,3mm. I m not sure if I sanded the back of the neck for satin/smooth feeling or not. Guitar is on another location right now. Size is like standard Fender/Squier... I had 40th anniversary, Sonic HT, Sonic Esquire and all to me had the same thickness, shape. Only the satin lacqure on the 40th back had a perfect smooth feeling. Hope this could help you.
@fritzsguitars thanks a lot!
would you be willing to sell this guitar if you still had it ;)
I think I returned it back in the day
IIRC Buzz Osbourne from The Melvins use this pedal as his main distortion and he is pretty much the father of Sludge Metal, so definitely it is a pedal for this kind of music
Thanks fir the background info, was not aware of Melvins, this pedal has some potential
I think about getting that guitar. Why is there a hole on the bridge.
It is not a hole, it is a black hex screw to adjust the intonation saddle for D and G string.
i want this
go for it :-)
bought one love it it adds magic to my eventide,, a sweet sound goldei lock tone zone,,,so unreal Ill make video so people hear and see, this has most of the klons circuits,,, A plus on the soul food pedal,,,, I got amazing tones on this pedal.. even some fm radio sounding old school school over drive. better than my strymon riverside pedal
I sold mine, cause it was no more in use since I recorded all via plugin
I thinking about getting exact same guitar. How's the neck on that is it kind of Chucky. What sizes are the frets.
Not too slim, not too chunky. A little widh from E to e I would say. Size you need to check Thomann, current series with stainless steel frets
What plugin are you using? Great tone!
Mooer Prime Plugin Sounds.
@@fritzsguitars In what software and audio interface?
mooer prime series, any of them :)
@@fritzsguitars can you give me a link please?
I have no link, google and you will find
Dear April?
My own creation
Can this be used on a bass amp? Or guitar only?
Sure, any instrument, even keyboard. It is just from frequencies better for guitar, you will miss the lower 100hz special 50 or 60hz to make there a cut on bass.
Fuck life sucks
Hi just wanted to know if this better than the prs se ce 24,thinking of getting one
You like to compare Squier Telecaster with PRS SE or do you like to compare with Harley Benton CST-24? In any case for all Squier 40th Anniversary I can tell you, you will need a lot of time and models to find a good one, production quality is not good for that price :-). I selected 4 guitars and ended up to keep 1 and this is even not the Telecaster, I got the 40th Vintage Surf Green Stratocaster and still I am not 100% convinced.
Nice ax in the background, buddy.
Thx, winter is coming :-) and it will find his use
hahahhahahahah, its a hatchet but still funny!
Right sounded better, so im guessing it's the SD-1
Can not remember, if it sounds soft than it is the TS if it sounds hard than it is the SD
Lets be honest High gain make all guitars sound the same
Exactly, little differences and maybe the way it feels while playing, nothing more
The ST-62 Hot Rod sounds way more Heavy
Roswell Ceramic high output single coil humbucker
I have one and the treble knob does practically nothing
I can not remeber on mine, I just liked it cause of this JCM crunch sound
do you know when this comes out?
Maybe never, was not showen latley
@@fritzsguitars oh man
Seems to be a big drop in volume when you split the humbucker to single coil
It is a big drop in volume level, a point I did not like much
@@fritzsguitars I can imagine. And something I didn’t notice in other videos 🤷♂️
Do you recommend it as a first guitar bro ?
If you like the stil and single coil pickups, yes go for it. I needed to lower down the bridge pickup cause the frame was in my way while picking with plek. Hope this can help you :)
@@fritzsguitars ty so much bro 🙌🏽
It's the original pickup?
it is the original squier ceramic humbucker
@@fritzsguitars sounds good!
Quite high output level approx 16 kOhm
Can you please tell what amp you are using? I'm using a Harley Benton HB-10G which came in the kit and omg it's horrible, I can't get a distorted sound no matter what I do...
no amp, just amp plugin engl powerball. Check out blackstar fly or other small models, they can deliver good distortion... or think about an distortion pedal
is it that bad?
you did it yourself or it's an official custom? if yourself, how did you do it, it looks great
official one, manufacturing was like a poor sample, just the look was great
@@fritzsguitars aw man, too bad they don’t sell it :(
what amp/signal path?
engl powerball plugin for distortion and fender reverb plugin for clean
nice looking guitar. except the neck dive.
not only this, it felt something is missing where your picking hand rests
Nice guitar. I love mine its a 1983 tobacco sunburst
thx, I sold mine and focusing now on light weight instruments :) more than 5kg was too much after a while
This is better sound than sc 450 in clean? in acoustic you can know wich sound is better.
No, the Harley Benton SC-1000 Active pickups are hot and driving the clean fast into overdrive. Only by reducing the volume poti you get a good clean tone... or with soft playing the strings
i really wonder what kind of white color is it because they don't state it there is arctic white / polar white (whitest) vintage white (slight yellowish color to the white base color) thanks in advance :))
arctic white, there is no yellow into it
@fritzsguitars thank you mate !
Beautiful tone. But looks strange without rhutm circuit. Almost ugly for my taste.
thanks, for me without clasic circut was better, easier for orientation with less options :)
Looks cleaner to me nice modern adaptation of a classic
Nice

is heavy in kg?
3,7kg well balanced,
Great video! I want to get this guitar in the purple like yours. Where did you get that awesome pickguard? Was it a perfect fit for the holes or did you have to modify it? Thanks!
amazon aged pearl or white pearl esquire pickguard... mine has a little yellow inside... could be also due to the sun light. if the holes matching, I cant remember. It needed to be cutted in the bridge are, was not fitting perfect
@@fritzsguitars Thanks! 😃👍
I think is the best sound guitar of Harley benton... for you is better than sc 450 plus gold top?
The Harley Benton SC-450Plus GT is still in my collection, the SC Custumes are not. Active SC Custom sounded good to me, but the guitar weight was on the higher side.
