Everything above the standard series has pretty much always been very good. It's cool that they switch it up so much though and do tons of limited runs, a lot of them actually appreciate in value
@@jordanpriest3629 the first one was the contemporary active Strat. Only difference is they didn’t have the roasted neck and had EMG knock-off pickups. Everything else was the same specs. It’s discontinued but they’re really well built as all Squiers are awesome these days
I ordered the sky blue strat special last Monday. First electric guitar I've ever bought, cant quite express the excitement in a youtube comment but I'm buzzing. Update: it's here and it's perfect! Strat neck goodness and a bridge pickup you'll never need to replace with a bucker.
Hi,I just got mine, the same blue start special. Do you see any issues with the neck pickup (position 5).? It is very low sound . The other pickups in position 1 to 4 are loud and clear. Volume and Tone I tried with 10/10 setting on all pick up positions. In order for the neck pick to be as audible as the others, I need to turn the master volume on the amplifier way up !! Thinking about returning if this is not normal.
@@bsandesh11 i don't have that guitar, but this doesn't sound right. if you really have to turn the master all the way up on your amp like that, something's wrong.
@@Prince_Sharming I just got this guitar at my local GC and my god, it's incredible. I had a Shecter Nick Johnston HSS recently which is a comparable guitar and I can't even lie, this squier blows it away. Better pups, tubing stability is far better, the neck is a more comfortable shape for me. I can't even get the trem to go out of tune no matter how hard I dive on it. Insanity at this price point
@@EricCPOP Rob had this douchey superiority thing going on. Pete is just laid back, not a hater, and he plays fantastically without giving the impression of showing off
@@EricCPOP Idk, I found him rather pompous at first and then I tried to like him, but ultimately I just see him as having used Anderton's and other business relationships around the globe to his benefit. He's rather egotistical and would probably make a great politician.
@@brettpanzer I know the whole debacle of what happened with Rob and a few other UA-cam people but ultimately I'm just really going by good ability to entertain, sell as well as impart knowledge in the Andertons videos. He does an okay job I think but he's just too shredtastic for my liking. His knowledge is on point though and he clearly knows his stuff. However I agree - I think Pete just appears to be more likeable, down to earth.
What I've heared from Phill McKnight is that Floyd Rose's patent expired and these still can be the licensed ones. They are just not obliged to write that anymore on the product they make. Still great value for the price tho! 💯
Just picked up a Jaguar today after watching this video a couple of hundred times over the last 3 weeks. I’m in love. You guys do an awesome job, it’s what convinced me. 10/10 effort gentlemen.
I ordered the gold Jaguar back in january, this is the first time I’m seeing the guitar on video and I couldn’t be more excited. Thank you for putting this vid up Andertons!
Lee really is the quintessential businessman who knows his audience ....the Squire line has to be THE sweet spot of guitars and you clearly feel the love for them. The $400-500 price point of quality and tone is second to none ( I can attest)..and this group will certainly appeal to a broad audience. I’m itching for that blue model... and in the grand scheme .. a $500 guitar with a $500 amp= heaven ..Thanks guys for appealing to us masses ! Next time I can be back in the UK I’m 100% coming by the store for a guitar. Thanks for keeping us sane in these bonkers times!!!👏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻
I probably don't need a new Squier in my life, but I gotta show up for the jams. Lee and Pete never disappoint! Love Lee's 80's rock tone in the intro! Edit: Way to call me out for watching this at work. Thanks Captain :-/
@@cjsilvestremusic I got mine a couple days ago! I was amazed with it, the fretwork was really good! Just a cool looking guitar! I even didn’t mind the pickups. But I’m still going to change them, a little to hot for my taste. And locking tuners just for ease of string changes! Hope you like yours as well!
I spent the 2nd quarter of 2020 alone in a house i didn't own in a city I don't like with no one for friends but guitar YTers like Lee and Pete. Knowing that almost every day there would be a cool new jam to listen to helped a LOT. Here's hoping the whole thing is a bad memory soon.
Squire guitars are not to be underestimated these days. At worst, you’ll get a solid instrument which might benefit from a particular hardware upgrade. At best, it’ll be love at first play. But will all of them, it’ll be money well spent. Long live the underdog.
Nice to hear some super-rocking playing from you two. I'll admit to sometimes skipping over the jams to get to the meat of the videos, but not today. This was freaking great! When does the album drop?
That strat with the middle pickup pushed further down closer to the bridge pickup is a nice solution for people who hate hitting the middle pickup with their pick 🤘🏼
What the actual F!? These guitars are just too good. When I was a kid a Squier was above my budget, but still crap. Now they're serious contenders. Roasted maple necks!! Fender are knocking it out the park for fun now.
GREAT DEMO PERFORMANCES OF THESE NEW SQUIERS, THEY SEEM TO BE SOME OF THE BEST TO COME OUT YET....LOVE THE WAY YOU GUYS JAM TOGETHER AND YOUR COMMENTARY IS ALWAYS EPIC .....KEEP DEFINING YOUR AWESOMENESS GUYS !!!! :) ;)
Awesome Session tone‼️😍 the two models of STRATOCASTER SQUIER from the opening session, deserved a second video making a new immersion in the incredible tones‼️😍 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Man, finally Fender/Squier went for that Robbie Robertson pickup-style with two singlecoils close to eachother! Definetly something i`m gonne pick up this year
If you are a beginner and you are looking for a Fender type guitar on the cheap , SQUIER is the best . I have a Squier bullet Strat HHS and it is GREAT . I found it in a thrift store for $20 and it sounds some good . I have a fretless Squier bass and it sounds so good . You can always replace the hardware and make it sound even better .
I recently got an audio interface and a nice pair of headphones, and I must say, you guys' videos just sound great. Between the audio channel mapping and sound quality, it's a treat on the ears!
All that woodshedding is paying off Lee, you're really keeping up with Pete these days! Your eyes when Pete strummed the guitar before and after going extreme on the trem was priceless 😂 Heck I'm in Canada (or "the colonies" to you Brits) and so can't logically buy from Andertons, but I subscribe to support the channel and enjoy the playing, product demos and pure entertainment i get here!
About a year and a half ago I was seriously contemplating on buying the classic vibe strat until I watched this video. Fender had a Black Friday sale so I pulled the trigger on a Telecaster Contemporary RH. THE NECK IS LIKE BUTTER! the only negative so far about this guitar is the cheap dime pots it comes with. Nothing an upgrade can’t handle. This one’s a keeper for sure.
I like that Tele!! The necks on these are lovely. Squires really closing the quality gap between it's Mexican, Californian and USA brethren in a lot of ways. If they work on those Atomic humbuckers a bit they'd sound even more awesome. I find those a bit brash, especially in the bridge position.
Like most people who say things like these and follow up with a pickup swap, I say to you: 1. Did you bother to adjust the pickup height? Those screws are there for a reason! 2. Do you even use your volume and tone knobs? They are there for a reason!
My bank account is going to suffer you can have one of each for almost peanuts That Jaguar,the pink Strat and white Tele for just over £1000 😯 Get thee behind me Satan
Very enjoyable. Danish Pete and the Captain are becoming my favorite duo on UA-cam. Kudos to Squire for their new offerings. I will have to wait for the lefty offerings.
Yeah I bought the one the guy on the left is playing. I'm a beginner and didn't want to have to deal with a Floydrose but yeah it is F#€king lovely. I have to wait until 24th of April to get the guitar tho! Pending supply!
Idk why this line isn’t more popular. The guitars and the features are all really nice and the playability leaves nothing to be desired. Really happy with my contemporary hard tail strat.
I dont know where you're living but theyre popular AF where I am. Only recently theyre overstocked on certain colours in the Strat range but the Teles selling and holding value.
@@CFox.7 I live is Southern California but, I don’t really ever see these in any of the local gigs. People ask me what it is usually because of the pickup layout but, there usually seem to be quite a bit of these on sale around my area (the strats mainly). Maybe the teles are more popular I am not sure but, at least I haven’t seen one in the wild. I see Ibanez AZES, Schecter Nick Johnston strats, PRS Silver Sky SEs, and fender player series all over the place as a comparison. 🤷🏽♂️
Is this contemporary range better than the classic vibes? I’m so stuck on what to get lmao, I want to pair it with a mustang l25 amp. Mostly looking for the John Mayer tones but obviously want the diversity of a good strat. It’s not an easy decision!!!
WOW what a jam!!! totally awesome!!! Anderton just gets better every day you guys play. Never owned a squire. Gibsons, Fenders and others but these sounded great! Excellent intro!
I just received my Contemporary Tele this morning and after a few hours of playing I am amazed how well it is keeping in tune. I was thinking of changing the tuners but I dont think I will bother now. For the price, this guitar is amazing. Love that roasted neck!
by 35:20 i wish i had someone to jam with during lockdowns 😢, by 36:50 i say i hope you recorded the channels separated to mix this properly cause it sounds like a track 👌😎
The one thing that unites us... not colour, creed or roots.... no, the one thing that unites us... IS DOKTOR MARTEN'S BOOTS! - I salute you Danish Pete!
I really like what squier have done with these. They're a set of really flexible guitars. Particularly the strats, and the pickup configuration. Ok the twin humbucker one is just PRS/Ibanez switching, but that's incredibly useful, it's a twin humbucker guitar that has the strat betweens. And the one that makes a humbucker out of the middle and bridge pickups: why has it taken so long to see this on a mass production guitar? I've been building pickups with two stratlike coils with alnico rods on a humbucker backplate for a few years, mostly inspired by the pickups in the brutal shred machines that were the Maverick X1 if anyone remembers them? But they had a simple gibson-like switch and the split capability of the pickups went unused, particularly as the control cavities were too small for an extra switch, and the sideways knobs prohibited a push/pull or push/push on the volume or tone. Two sligtly overwound strat coils takes you into dimarzio evolution territory. Not super-dark like a JB or 498T but articulate and tight. But keeping the finger of spacing finder have done here drops the mutual induction so the single coil sounds still sound like sinle coils. And they made it look great. It's a shame the single coils they used here missed out on quality control, note where lee finds at least one of them has gone microphonic, and that's never helpful on a guitar that's going to encounter high gain.
Much as I have loved the “Chappers and the Captain “ all these many years, I’m loving the “Peter’s and the Lee ” 😉 vids and jams we get these days...first class jam
I always chuckle when Pete plays instead of speaking. "It's like..." (play play play) "That's proper...." (play play play). :) I get it though. Sometimes words are inadequate.
Props to Squier for continuing to kick the most ass in its price range. Fender has you covered at pretty much every single price point.
It doesn't though, there's plenty of better stuff out there for the price.

That’s the nicest looking Jaguar I’ve seen in a while. Impressed.

Plays an A Major and a blues pentatonic
The quality of craftsmanship on the contemporary and classic vibe is superb definitely for the pro guitarist
I’m trying to recall how many times I’ve watched this video
These guys can play! You sold me - I'll take one of each... Beautiful, inexpensive guitars are positioned in the right spot price-wise.
Wonderfull series. But also one of your best jam at the end waooo👏👍🙏
F AMAZING jam!! Also all of those guitars are looking sick but the pink with black head is out of this world!
Pete always smashes it with a Floyd Rose!
The Cap might not have the fastest fingers in the biz, but his soul is bluer than the ocean! What a jam you two had, so contagious to listen to!
The pink strat with the Floyd just seems like Fender exposing you to Charvel stuff at the lowest price point they can.
That last jam, oh man that was awesome. Still the best channel on the interwebs.
finally find someone test new squier guitar on UA-cam it's been so long to wait that tele is amazing
Pete. You screamed in that outro man! Wow. The joy on your face.
Looks like Lee has improved alot on his shreddings skills! Not what you play but how you play it! Well done all guys at andertons! 🤜🤛
True, Lee is playing quite different these days :)
Wow...just WOW!!! Those guitars, Lee's playing, Pete's Playing (never seen him that animated when playing), Those jams...what a groove. Thank you

Absolutely sold me on the Strat Special. Fender/Squier have converted me with their Contemporary line.

Hello Lee and Pete. Just so nice intro and outro jam this time
Thank you Lucas..
Much as I have loved the “Chappers and the Captain “ all these many years, I’m loving the “Peter’s and the Lee ” 😉 vids and jams we get these days...first class jam
I always chuckle when Pete plays instead of speaking. "It's like..." (play play play) "That's proper...." (play play play). :) I get it though. Sometimes words are inadequate.
