    In today's video, I'm comparing the Squier Classic Vibe 50s Stratocaster and Fender Vintera II 50s Stratocaster. Both are absolutely amazing! But the more expensive Fender feels more like an actual vintage guitar. If that's what you're looking for, it's definitely a better option for you. But if you just want a killer Strat, the Squier will be more than enough too.

    Honestly, I prefer the Classic Vibe. Especially the Neck position, because it sounds warmer and punchier. Also the fretwork seems to look a bit better. 🧐

    i have the 50's classic vibe in red. got the guitar and case for 250.00 like brand new. it is an awsome player.Ive had a ton of strats in my 40 years of playing. thsi CV isn't going anywhere soon. I may put 59 vintage pickups in her since the tone tests prove they are the best sounding.if they are all this good why buy a fender? I also have a classic vibe thineline tele that I ressurected after a flood killed it for 7 years. I just put it back together and it worked except for the pcikups. put a twisted tele neck pickup in her and that made her sound better then when she was new.

      Hey, thank you :)
      neck pickup - part from Under The Bridge by RHCP
      bridge pickup - Behind Blue Eyes by The Who
      dirty tone - not an actual song, just a couple of power chords
      spring reverb - same as above

    With my humble experience, i think that it is difficult to compare and tell wich guitar sounds the best. Squier could sound better or just different. The point is that behind the sound, there is the feeling of the neck, the tuners, the vibrato...and of course, you pay the brand too. There is only personnal choices, i had a few guitars and i was totally surprised by guitars of under 150€...sorry for my english. Nice video

      The neck on the Classic Vibe is terrible. Too thin and glossy.
      Not saying Fender is the way at all. Older Squiers have great necks!

      I love the thin neck of the Classik Vibe and it's glossy but not sticky. The sound is incomparably good and the mics are absolutely world class. Without a doubt the best strata you can get for little money and if you like thinner necks C then this is the guitar you should have. Do a thorough setup and file down the strap ends, which unfortunately can be a bit ugly but can easily be made nice and polish the straps and you have a fantastic rocker that plays as well as a real Fender.

  • @stopbeingbusy

    Solution - buy a used Classic Vibe, sell the neck and buy a neck that suits your style… oh and an eq pedal 🎉
