"Not a modder"... I'd mod it. I'd mod it so hard. A guitar like that just screams to be modded. At that price, you could learn how to replace frets and all other maintenance without worrying about destroying the guitar... either you destroy the guitar, or make it 1000x better. Either way you learn what to do and what not to do. If you mess up and destroy the guitar, you're not out much. If you're successful, then you got a good guitar that didn't cost an arm and a leg (unless you had a mishap while working on the guitar).
Exactly what I was thinking. I sold my fender strat because I was tight on money and I regret it every day. I’m thinking maybe I grab one of these and mod it to be like my old strat hehe
Well, it looks good. The dings on the back suck, but they're on the back. Only a matter of time before a belt buckle could've done that. For $120, you're on your way on the path of many before you. Soon you can cut your own way.
For those of us who can fix the funcitonal problems, it would be better to find an old strat-like guitar (Yammy EG, Crate Electra, etc etc) for $50, and go from there. You'll find some that have a wonderful real Strat-like body and rolled necks, upgraded tuners, and some impressive 70's dirty sounding pickups. I love finding them, making them sweet, and then handing them off to kids to learn.
Some people hate when you play cheap guitars through expensive Amps because it proves what I've always known. Great tone is more about the amp and a lot less about the guitar. I started playing in 1976 with a cheap guitar and an old Fender tube amp that belonged to my dad. Anything we plugged in to that amp sounded good.😮
My Gearit Strat was $131C. No QC issues, beautiful finish, rounded and smooth fret ends, straight maple neck, tone and volume controls that actually work, steady sound, ok gig bag, extra strings, tuner, decent cable and a fun little amp with blue tooth. Totally surprised by how decent it is. Fender May be making an attempt to stay in the “value” segment but too little too late.
Great information!! Thanks for all the videos you bring us. The guitar is pretty cool. Put the loaded pick guard and give us a demo.Keep on playing , we'll keep on watching!!
You are hilarious. I've been following your channel since you had sub 2k, I believe. I knew you would blow up because you're so entertaining! Rock 'n roll Landon!
I actually landed after many sub 600 guitars on cheapest JET stratocaster and it is perfect. Feeling, setup, rounded edges, no issues at all. I might say its the best price / performance ratio guitar.
I bought an Amazon Squier a couple of years ago. When I got it, I cut the strings, took off the neck and sanded it to a matte finish, polished the frets, restrung, spent a bit of a time cutting the nut to the right depth, and intonated it. For the price it was an absolutely amazing player. The ceramic PUP's had a nice growly P90ish sound. Sure it lacked a little in the way of dynamics, but I loved it and actually played it more than my CS Strat. Sadly, my great-nephew really wanted to learn guitar, so it's now collecting dust at his house. I'm hoping by having access, he'll eventually get lessons. He won't listen to me 😂
I got "Legendary" Bullet Mustang, added a Tusk Nut, shielding paint, gentle neck sanding w/gun oil wipe, and very basic set up for about $130 total. Great guitar. You can do a lot with a little with a Squier.
Smashing video, those squiers are excellent value and are real easy to play. Guitar snobs will disagree of course but as you've shown they are a great way to learn guitar.
I will call it tremlolo from now on. Best thing is , in french means..... well I'll let you google it. I'm not even in the market for a guitar and I watch all your videos
Place a piece of damp cloth over the ding then use a hot solder iron on the cloth. This will raise the wood fiber so that ding is almost unnoticeable. At tip of a hot clothing iron may also work. This for where the wood fibers aren't broken too bad.
Thanks for the review. I've seen many demos of this guitar and most of the players with negative reviews seem to expect the guitar to magically play for them. They can't play unless the frets are a certain size, the tremolo feels a certain way, gobs of distortion, they need to mod it, etc, etc. The sound is mostly in your hands; YOU play the guitar the guitar does not play you. I ordered one of these in sunburst a month or so ago and it's a wonderful guitar. In my 60's and play mostly straight ahead jazz with big arch-tops and I also own a Fender Telecaster, and a Gibson 335. I wanted a new toy just to goof around with and this fit the bill. I put a set of 10's on it and it sounds great clean or with my MXR Super Badass Distortion. The neck feels great too, not sharp edges at all. Some guitars will have defects no matter how much you pay for it, the same applies here. If you sweat the small stuff send it back.
I like this video because you are reviewing the guitar for what it is and not expecting it to be concert ready, etc. It is a perfect guitar for a beginner. If my kid was wanting to learn guitar I would buy something like this and teach about the design, tear it down and put it back together before we ever got into the first lesson.
Great review, Landon. Thank you for this. Your low-key demeanor and dead-pan humor make this all feel really honest and worthwhile. Nice to see you talk about the pros and cons--that you like the ceramic pickups but also address those shitty grooves on the back of the body. For $120 (American) it's a tough choice, I imagine.
I got mine in sun burst for learning to mod. I really like it, I changed the strings and blocked the trem. Very comfortable, fun to play. Oh, and I didn't watch the video to the end to hear the two things. Thank you Landon, as always.
A salesperson at Guitar Center told me that Indian Laurel was related to rosewood. No so much helpful as it is me just contributing a comment. 'Cause the guy lied. 🙂
Not a related wood, but on the hardness scale they are nearly identical, 2.4 for rosewood and 2.3 for Laurel, and that’s all that should really matter.
I got the Debut in two tone sunburst. I really like it, the only shortcoming for me was the electronics but I had a loaded pickguard laying around that I put together with alnico v pickups and 500k pots and the guitar sounds amazing now. I also put a set of cheap locking tuners on it. Very happy with this instrument.
Great video🎉 I love your UA-cam channel, Andy's is pretty good too! I went to a pawn shop and bought a used Squire Stratocaster "Bullet" for 40 bucks. I know they're doing the best they can to keep the prices low for beginners, but I think I got a better deal.
When I first saw this guitar on Amazon I thought wow I can sell my Donner DST-200 That I got from Amazon for $109 and use the money to buy the Fender. But after watching a lot of reviews on it I'm going to keep the Donner. I know your Amp can make or break a guitar but I'm just not impressed with the sound and to me the pic ups sound weak. All in all it was a good review. Thanks for posting
I got a squier affinity telecaster for $239 CAD even the guy at Long and McQuade wasn't sure why it was marked as a demo but I ain't complaining. I'm a big fan of random local deals.
I just bought me a Harmony EST 1892 ( they were sold through the JC Penny’s Department Store’s catalog) just like SEAR’s cheap guitar. But you can play it after adjusting it
I’m a Yank, 67, played a Strat into my 20s, and went Tele nuts. Own 7, but not a single Strat. For this price, how can I not buy one? I need a guitar for surf, and my Bigsby Tele doesn’t cut it. I’m sure you can get a cleaner tone than you demo’d, but how is the Tremelo holding tune? That can be modded with heavier springs anyway, right? I would just play it 100% clean going through real spring reverb.
The reviews of the Debut Precision has about the same reviews on Talk Bass. The pickup is a quarter inch forward and a couple pickguard holes need to be re-drilled. There is room to move the pickup to the stock location to use a Fender pickguard, but you will need to drill new mounting screw holes.
The Telecaster version of the Squier Debut is currently available on Amazon's UK site...assuming that's the next cheap guitar video...? Sorry yours came banged up on the back. p.s...Loved hearing you play the Harrison lick from "I'd Have You Anytime".
The bridge is set tight for the guitar to behave as a hardtail: this is the proper setting for a beginner who will be busy learning other things first. I wonder why so many reviewers act as if they didn't know it's a set-up choice. Maybe they don't.
I'm leaving a comment. I quite like watching you play. That peeling plastic was the most soothing sound I've heard all day. The guitar sounded pretty reasonable, probably fine for the price. Maybe you should keep it. Maybe you should sell it Other opinions are available. Nice video
I guess it’s tough because yeah, manufacturers have been trying to find that perfect guitar that simultaneously inspires a new player, fan, and future loyal customer, while also preventing people who are gonna play for a week from buying the decent/good stuff and then selling it second at crazy prices to get rid of it. So I’m glad they’re trying, and that this is a guitar someone wouldn’t hate to own, but probably wouldn’t buy it for my kid.
I have one without the wammy bar. I got a cheap pickguard which was no good, and replaced EVERYTHING in it. Humbuckers, new pots, my own wiring and switches I added that split the humbuckers.
I've heard of Journeyman relic, Relic, Heavy relic etc. but never heard of Postal Service relic. Must be a new option. The custom shop really outdid themselves on this one, looks damn authentic...🤪
I’m glad you mentioned the ceramic pickups. I think they sounded really raw and powerful. Not vintage at all, but I don’t get why that makes them “bad,” they’re just different.
I bought the very same guitar and first thing I did (beside changing the strings) was to put some noiseless alnico 5s in it. I didn't even give the old pups a chance.
I have the same one. It's black now though. And modded. My biggest complaint with mine was how cheap and light the trem block is. It's the lightest one I've ever had. Immediately swapped it.
I got just the pick guard that I wanted on a Black Strat- 2020 Squier Affinity that seemed and probably was the only one available during Covid-19 and it gets its mod from my doing a total setup on a great neck (couldn’t be better) although the frets could be harder for the future, Yosemite pups and voila not quite instant Strat I could afford over a period of time. Love this axe. If pros can play straight Bullets I can play a modded Affinity. : )
Ooooo a Princeton. That’s a good amp. My brother in law has his from the 80’s. I wanted one so bad but I ended up with a vox ac15. I got a smokin deal on it. And I do like it.
Gosh, what a pain to have something shipped into Canada. So many fees and taxes along the way, sorry you gotta endure that. Thanks for making and sharing this video!
THIS IS THE BEST GUITAR FOR YOU, YOU BEGINER!!!!!!1! Okay, but in all seriousness.. I want this. Badly. Also, before anyone says anything, I'm being sarcastic with the first part. I'm 6 months in, and this guy's likely got DECADES of experience more than me. I assume.
You can probably get partial refund if you call Amazon for your order on your phone and persuade the agent enough about the scuff. I’ve had varying degrees of success with dinged and damaged items like that.
If I got one, that would be the color I'd want! Otherwise... I'm good. Auto correct tried to make me sacrilegious when I typed "good ". Not that time though... Did you hear Landon's voice when reading those last few sentences? I wrote/typed them in it. "It" being his voice. Landon, did you hear it? .... Anyway... no answer yet. I subscribed a long time ago. I'm pretty sure. I'll double check... I look forward to generally enjoying your videos again. This was good. You hear it now?
Hey it's a Squire, er.... Squier, not too shabby. Thanks for another pleasant viewing experience. That one last bit was stellar, I mean, who doesn't like that sound. I actually picked up my Nashville Tele and laid down a tune to it, oh my, please don't ask me to send it along. 🎼🎶, I kind of like the name I gave it, A Wrinkle in Time. Please, forgive me.

I really appreciate the cost breakdown for importing it from the states. Really useful info that's usually hard to find.
Every guitar review video needs a "peeling off the plastic" section like this. Adding the reverb was truly inspired. 😎

Good grief the prices we pay today! Just a few short years ago I got my mint mim strat off Reverb for $380 US.
I got mine in like 2016 or 2017 for 320.
I know what you mean. I paid 327 for my 96 MIM strat in 2017
i paid 500 for my MIM Richie Sambora sig from GC in 2020....theyre right at 1000 now
I paid $350 for my mim tele in 2004. It’s never needed a setup and is one of my most solid guitars to this day. You got a good deal
Thanks Obiden

lol great intro i had to subscribe after
I bought one yesterday for $122 , delivery on Tuesday, i got the tobacco burst .
That guitar looks like it is worthwhile
Steam might bring out the indentions? Might also damage the finish. I'd return it unless it plays beautifully.
I love this channel!😂
Omg those pickups are microphones
sounded really good with the sd-1. love dakota red too.
This video is a kumquat of joy.
30 deg is NOT 'hot'! It's just warm!
I’m watching this video.
You can probably get partial refund if you call Amazon for your order on your phone and persuade the agent enough about the scuff. I’ve had varying degrees of success with dinged and damaged items like that.
If I got one, that would be the color I'd want! Otherwise... I'm good. Auto correct tried to make me sacrilegious when I typed "good ". Not that time though... Did you hear Landon's voice when reading those last few sentences? I wrote/typed them in it. "It" being his voice. Landon, did you hear it? ....
Anyway... no answer yet.
I subscribed a long time ago. I'm pretty sure. I'll double check... I look forward to generally enjoying your videos again. This was good.
You hear it now?
Hey it's a Squire, er.... Squier, not too shabby. Thanks for another pleasant viewing experience. That one last bit was stellar, I mean, who doesn't like that sound. I actually picked up my Nashville Tele and laid down a tune to it, oh my, please don't ask me to send it along. 🎼🎶, I kind of like the name I gave it, A Wrinkle in Time. Please, forgive me.
I like the colour. It looks like a '57. By which I mean it looks like a bottle of Heinz tomato Ketchup.
Thanks for the Video 🙏
I was hoping it would sound terrible, but it doesn’t.
