- Check out the Thinline Tele Vintage Modified 72 by Squier.
For the first time ever, Squier introduces a Vintage Modified Telecaster Deluxe guitar armed with Fender-designed Wide Range humbucking pickups. An acclaimed and time-honored Fender innovation, the Wide Range humbucking pickup delivers incredibly full tone and lends even more vintage-style authenticity to this model. Other features include a maple neck and fingerboard with 21 medium jumbo frets and vintage-style tuners.
Players have done it for years. Whether installing hotter pickups, different pickguards or just plain personalizing their instruments with distinctive paint jobs, modified means adding new twists to familiar designs. Squier's Vintage Modified series excels at just that, imparting hot-output chop-shop sound, feel and value to traditional instrument designs.

Nice tone Luka Modrić
hahah the real music not real madrid
3:10 tuning mid solo. Now that's slick
That is not only pretty it's a beast!!
I too dig this, excellent review, brilliant hands in action too man
Thank you for being able to really play. I can't stand when people try to demo a guitar and can't play.
I just tried this guitar last week and went back a few times to it because it sounded and felt really good. Was exactly what you experienced !
Might be buying this one soon.
Nice performance!! I extremely wish Squire will reproduce it again. This specification is perfect. Absolutely affordable. It was too late to be aware of.
I assume Squier are now making this model again. I bought one a year or so ago. Really wonderful. Faultless build. Great tones, action etc.
Squier have really 'upped' the quality of their instruments recently.
Excellent demo L&M! Cheers from Ottawa.
hi there, mate...i lived and worked in ottawa for about three years, workin' in ottawa and livin' in stittsville.....it is a dull city, i did not make lot of friends, you know....i came back to australia 2 years ago, sad we didn't met in ottawa to jam around....anyway, greetings from darling downs, australia
@@mytelecasterworld3336 it is totally a boring town... I work for the federal government. Lucky you to be in Australia... Cheers man!
That was one nice demo! Great job!
Hear a bit of "Jerry's Breakdown" in the beginning if I'm not mistaken! Sounds wonderful
I've been putting off buying a MIM Fender Thinline.
Love the double demo starting 2.12
Could on, you sound amazing! Love the Tele!
how does the squier compare against the fender
Nice playing bro!! And nice guitar too! I've always wanted a thinline....
nice to see you playing a Tele!
Really nice playing dude!
I had two thinline tele's - both made in china if I recall - or maybe one was from Indonesia
- the one with a Fender decal had a bolt on neck - the Squier Standard had a set neck - huge diff ! !
- Duncan Design pickups seem hot if you're used to Affinity cheapies but the DD's sound too grainy
- try an angled Hot Rail bridge humbucker in a Strat or Tele - beats the HSS + HH layout - although the Fender Wide Range humbuckers are GREAT - you only need one at the neck or middle - never lose the angled bridge pick up ! it won;t sound Fender and it won't sound Gibson
Good stuff Sam, as usual. It would be very interesting to hear your review on some Harley Benton guitars :) Cheers!
my compliments to l&M FOR HAVING THE BEST REVEIW ON U TUBE JIM HERMANSEN
She's beautiful. Seems ligth tho :) Good vibes !
It’s a nice sounding guitar for the money.
great presentation -----Jim Hermansen
Clean, yes. But great crunch and will get as dirty as you want, too👍
oh yes, i got one, same model, and it sounds warm and woody with the volume knob at 7-8, but when you roll up full it crunches like no gibson does......great guitar indeed....
Is this an old model? I only see the ones with soft maple body these days
Hi ,Nice guitar! How much does it weight ? does it ahave any neck dive issue ?
Wow!!
Just wanted to know, how much does one cost??
You might have mentioned it but I maybe missed it.
I have an American Pro 2017 but I was an ash body Tele and this one with the hollow section is so nice.
If I ever get the money or can find one for trade I may put up my Ibanez JS100 for one, I know the JS is a great guitar but I love my Telecasters and until this one i have not heard one which was not made in America that I was totally impressed with.
But this is a exceptional musical instrument.
Still would not trade my American Pro that guitar is my baby and pride and joy but wow this is a dynamic and decent instrument!!
The only thing is I like the barrel saddles but other then that!!
Thanks, great review :-)
Bridge and Middle pickup? It's a telecaster with 2 pickups not 3. The middle position on the pickup switch is for both the bridge and the neck pickups.
Tarrega's "Recuerdos de la Alhambra". :)
Greeaaat!
What are you playing through? Low distortion sounds bluesy.

YOU ARE RIGHT ON BROTHER - LOOKS AND SOUNDS FABULOUS AND WITH ASH BODY MAPLE NECK ON SALE £308; SHOP AROUND! PAPA KIRANA
How does Squier Vintage Modified Thinline compared with Classic Vibe Thinline?
The deal is on the pickups mostly, while Vintage Modified series uses Duncan Designed, Classic Vibe is a little more "classic" and is mostly based on Alnico V pickups
The Neck too! Be sure to compare. I bought a CV Thinline, loved the light weight and the tones I could get out of it. I could make it growl, or sound quite mellow and jazzy. But the neck...way too thin, I was missing chord fingering, and eventually my hand started cramping up. I had to let it go. The VM 72 Thinline has a Chunkier Neck, works for me. I have one on my wish list. Also the CV Thinline is made in China, the VM 72 Thinline is made in Indonesia.
@@AldoMarceloBenitesPalomino actually, this VM does not use Duncan Designed p'ups. They use a company named G&B from Korea, which does pickups for PRS, Schecter and others.
Do you have that patch for the thr10x saved that you used at the end? Slightly overdriven.
Great playing Sam! Sam this guitar looks like the chocolate-colored single-coil Squier thinline only with humbuckers. I wonder if the necks are similar? Have you ever seen the older model? The reason I ask is they have the older one on sale near me.
I know it's been a long time, I just picked one of these up second hand. A steal.
Back in the early 90's I played a Thinline (neck stamped with 3 Dec 72) through a HiWatt DR504. The Thinline was stolen almost 20 years ago so I can't compare sound beyond nostalgia. I somehow still have the HiWatt.
I just put a Gotoh C102 (10.5mm spacing) on the Squier to align the strings a bit better than the stock Fender bridge, but I can say the feel and finish on the Squier is outstanding for the price. I used to joke about playing the Rickenbacker and wrestling the Tele. The new one, set up properly is amazingly playable.
The high-end Squiers are fantastic value these days and the build quality is probably better than late CBS made in America.
I understand there are some differences between the new and old WRH pickups, but to my tinnitus ridden ears and the passing of time, the new ones are PRETTY DAMN GOOD.
Anyway, did you get an original '72?
Hi there! Just bought this guitar recently but the new ones have soft maple bodies and not the ash version. When you dropped in the Gotoh C102, did the screw holes align perfectly on the new bridge?
@outtolunch88 did the screwholes of the body align perfectly with the Gotoh C102’s? Thank you so much
Does it still have the typical twang sound?
Hey, does this guitar have nice pickups? Do they really get rid of hum? That's what's bothering me on my Fender Modern Player Tele.
Try with different guitars. You shouldn't need a new guitar just because of hum, especially one so similar to yours. Check your cables, power, and amp.
Is guitar a bit lighter than normal teles? its much more lighter? How thick is body, can we compare it to ibanez rg?
I am torn between getting this one or the 'Fender Modern Player Telecaster Thinline Deluxe', I must admit I am slightly gravitating towards the Fender rather than the Squire (I wonder if this guitar, being a Squire, sacrifices any quality), so can someone share their opinion with me?
I'm in the same situation. What did you choose?
Mauricio Elizondo Modified had Duncan design pickups while the Vibe has Alnico design. The Fender Modified is made in China and the Squire is made in Indonesia. The Vibe is a heavier guitar, Indonesian and Chinese quality should be pretty close, I lean towards Indonesian but it's a toss up I think. There are also Mexican versions which I think are not as good as the previously mentioned even though the Mexican ones are more money. Unless you look at the USA made Fenders, which are big bucks. Either way all very nice guitars. Did you buy one?
What strings gauge?
pull on the volume knob and the neck pickup goes single coil....i have this EXACT same guitar.
Maybe yours has been modified or something, cause mine won't do that
No it doesn't
@@MarioKazooie mine does and its stock...BONE stock.
@@craigllacour649 mine does....i just did it the other day...and it sounds GREAT like that....maybe you got the shitty one
@@edwhite7475 No you got one that has been modified you are the only one who has ever said that about the volume knob and learn how to spell.
Would Tab Benoit play one? I don’t think so he has his number 1 and ya can’t pull it out of his hands.
Excuse me Mr Coulson, do you happen to live in Calgary
Yes sir! I love this City, great place to raise a family.
+Sam Coulson Awesome!! Me Too!!
These pickups sound just a little bit cheap to me. Maybe it's in my mind. I know Sam's a great player so it's not his fault.
it is not the pickups but the pots, which are the only upgrade this guitar needs along with strings (it brings 9-42 out of the box), this guitar works its best with 10's or 11's.....the issue with the knobs is a certain lack of matchin' between pickups and pots, it is not what an issue, it is a cheap upgrade...nonetheless, it's great out of the box...i actually love this alnico wide range pickups.....
Isn't that a Squier Classic Vibe Telecaster?
It's vintage modified series, the classic vibes look more like the 52 teles and broadcasters
@@DrPaul-nw4nx i got this model in the classic vibe as squier is no longer building this vintage modified model...i got the classic vibe 52 tele as well and honestly, almost matchin' my two american teles
hello Sam🎶
Hello Hyobi! :-)
dude, you sound like clapton
Anybody play slide on this thing?
Sam has never been kissed.
