Tom Quayle reviews this Classic 60th Squier Stratocaster guitar featured in Issue 26! For more info turn to:
Dude. Your introduction gave me goosebumps. Now this is a demo. Even more motivated to buy this guitar!
+Žonatan Rivera Seriously. This guy can play.
+Žonatan Rivera That was very cool. Really set the tone of this guitar right off the bat. Want one.
I don't think it's "good for a Squier". I think it's a good guitar, period. They've come a long way. Nice review.
have you played one man there alot better than you think
Holy fucking shit this is the best review I've ever seen.
Told me everything I wanted to know, showed me how the guitar sounds very well, and man can this guy play!
Subbed.
I find that the biggest factor on indonesian/chinese guitars are the fretwork...if you can find one with good fretwork, you're 90% on the way to sounding like a guitar much more expensive.
I have owned Fender Masterbuilt, still have a 1962 Strat and quite a few others too and this model holds it's own with all of them. The amp sounds like many available to us all, it's how you set them up. The key to this demo is the guy's talent.
REALLY wish someone from GI would revisit this thread to let us know what amp/pedals were used here. The opening was divine.....
I have one, like better than my US standard.
One small problem no tone on bridge pick up ( to much treble ) but a easy small solder job to rectify.
Fabulous guitar.
The whole Classic Vibe series by Squier are fantastic instruments for the price and amazing even if they cost hundreds more. You just can't go wrong. I have a CV 50's Telecaster Precision bass AND the CV 50's Telecaster with the Alnico 5 pickups. What a tone machine!
That trem can be fixed with a Fender trem hole spring. Little known but a spring was meant to be placed in the bottom of the trem hole so once screwed down to a certain point, the spring will push and hold a moderate resistance so you can move the bar out of the way and it will stick.
Those tiny springs are easily lost. I have used plumbers tape and it works fine also
I learned a trick from Rene Martinez who was Stevie Ray Vaughan's tech : Grab a little piece of cotton, roll it into a small ball and drop it inside the cavity under the whammy bar, it will "cushion" the end of the bar and leave the bar where you want it...
Neat trick...It has worked for me for years...If it's good enough for SRV...

Simply AMAZING!!!
can I work for you guys? I done a review on a BC Rich on my channel
I bought mine shortly after watching this video, and I've had it for almost 7 months now... I can definitely say one thing: this guitar is a beast!!! It's hard to beat the quality/price relation on this one... It sounds killer with it's alnico pickups and alder body, it feels great on the hands (nice fretwork), it's easy to setup, it stays in tune amazingly well, it looks stunning, it performs great both live and in studio... all that american Fender quality in a relatively inexpensive guitar, it's unbelievable! When I bought it I was so excited I even took the time to learn the intro piece that Tom played in the video! Great playing as usual, I'm a big fan of his.
That guitar player is amazing
I bet every guitar sounds good in his hand! :-)
I bought this guitar because of this demo. Very good guitar!
Sounds so good, gotta love a great Strat tone, so much character and dynamics.
Best review of this guitar by far..Brilliant player and a good in depth review. Great stuff. I'm definitely gonna check these out!
I've always taken the greenback of a sponge to take down the gloss on the neck.
It works quite well with no worries of sandpaper.
Me too! It works a treat
the back or the front?
I've only felt the need to use it on the back of the neck.
+Richard Brubaker *hehe* no doubt...
How long does it take you to do with the green part of the sponge? Does the gloss come off easily like this or not?
That tone in the intro is to die for
Impeccable playing as always from Tom, who really pulls a top-drawer performance out of this Squier. I may be biased, (as I have a Squier CV 50's tele myself) but this guitar sounds awesome - even through my tiny iMac speakers!
Just bought one last week with slight damage for 150 euro, as I'd borrowed one from a mate on a trip to my home country recently, mainly because I loved the neck. He had Lollars in it. I'm putting a set of custom Kloppmanns in which I had on a hiway one strat I never got on with . I also had it professionally rewired and set up with top notch components. Looking forward to my mate flying in on Friday.
That gold finish looks like a million bucks 😂.
LOVELY playing, Tom. A joy just watching your fingerwork.
Better grab one while you can, these are going to be worth some money in 10 years. I would say these are on par with the Japanese Vintage series guitars from the 80's, and those are holding value quite well.
This is 6 years ago. The last few years Sqire has made even more strides in making even more quality guitars. They have to, because there is now an onslaught of very inexpensive but very high quality guitars being made by other companies, like Harley Benton, Glarry, Firefly, Wolf, Grote, to name just a few.
Ironically I've found the newer Indonesian models to be inferior to their Chinese precursors. They're still pretty dang good compared to others in their price range though.
LOVE THE GOLD HARDWARE AWESOME COLOUR
You provided one of my alltime best videos on youtube with your contribution ....
I ordered this particular guitar from Session in Frankfurt, Germany for a favourable price as this series is going to end. It sounds exactly the same. I am very convinced! This guitar beats up with the American made strats, maybe with the Custom Builts ...
The sound is even, bell-like and there are no piercing and harsh sounding elements ... Great!!!! This is my favourite guitar amongst roundabout 20 I own ... :-)
There's an easy fix for the loose trem- a bit of heat shrink tubing just above the thread on the trem arm
+gibb253 Cool idea...I will try that sometime.
gibb253 or a spring
or plumbers sealing tape around the thread of the trem arm
Great demo and beautiful playing. I could listen all day long. I've had a chance to try one of these out and I thought it was great . Excellent build quality and sound. The neck was my favorite part.
I have this one exactly. They're manufactured in China, but I think for this very release some stars had aligned or they subcontracted some skilled team, because fretwork is almost impeccable and instrument itself feels and sounds more like vintage American Strat, rather than Squier. I was very lucky to get my hands on this one and gonna keep for years, maybe upgrade tuning posts.
Beautiful guitar and sounds amazing.
Got mine about 5 months ago and love it...Plays and sounds like an expensive Strat....I did sand down the finish on the back of the neck...but that's not necessary. ..just my preference. .I own many expensive guitars as well...and I still like this one..fyi
The tremalo bar is loose because you did not drop the spring into the hole before putting in the bar. If the little spring wasn't there, you can get a pack of them for a few bucks at a guitar shop or on line.
Wonderful review. Very nice playing on all the variations. Thank you. I am waiting for it to be delivered.
Tom quayle's chord work is impecable he should do it more
Might have missed it.. BUT... full sized Alpha pots (could be better, could be worse), a box type switch (should be replaced with a CRL type), wimpy zinc inertia block (should be replaced with a heavier larger steel block), slightly thinner body (that means it's not as heavy as an American Stratocaster).
I just bought one and I love it.
+Carl Rudd Agree completely, also the thinner body can be problem with block replacement as they can be too tall and stick out the back. Btw, box switches arent necessarily bad, i have had more CRLs fail.
Ive got an Eric Clapton Prototype "Blackie"that Im completely happy with,but I bought one of these anyway!lol.
Awesome review! Great player and an absolutely killer axe wow!!!
Think you could give a lesson on that first 40 seconds Tom? That was phenomenal.
One of the best reviews I had seem about guitars. Congratulations!
The maple wood of the neck seems to be to much better than the regular squiers.
Verry beautiful. Sounds awesome d colour is nice I'm. Buyin it
Great guitar for the price. I've just got one today. Mine sports a gorgeous flamed neck which is what caught my eye. That's my first Chinese strat and I have to say, it's as good as my US, MIM or Japanese guitars. Will see how it behaves with time but playability is awesome. I confirm the finish is a bit thick on the neck but it's not sticky at all.
I ordered one after watching this review. The best review on youtube! really helpful
Excellent playing ! Bravo Tom !
Some really tasty playing , you could probably make even a nasty Squire Bullet sound great but this is one of the best demo videos I've seen. Great Job Man !!!
Does the 60th Aniv model have the narrower string spacing like all Squires or the full width bridge like the American made models ?? I know it's only an eighth of an inch but it makes a big difference to the feel.
These gold 50s cv's are sweeeet lookin' axes...got a 60s fsr in gold bronze and LOVE IT!!!!
Great review, really good play and description of the guitar. Very close to buying this one
got one love it , i was sold by your demo awesome job man thanks and love your playin man
the review is undermined if we dont know what amp !
no amp he doesnt use one
Very nice playing and a great sounding strat
loose trem easy fix plumbers tap. great introduction riff. would love to know what amp is being used. I bought one of these guitars and they are FANTASTIC.
Have the telly in the Classic vibe and have to say, its a great guitar. Only thing is the 60th Classic Vibe Strat is around $1000 here in Australia. I paid about $500 new for the telly. Oh well I don't really need another guitar .. I want one though
The trem should have a small spring inserted into its hole, to put upward pressure on the arm to stabilize it.
Seems like a very nice guitar, but I guess this guy could make any guitar sound great.. Very nice playing indeed!
It is horrible. I've had mine for tree years. I tweaked every single day. It could not keep a setup. My god that neck relief changed every day. You couldn't not intonate it with more then 9 gauge strings. Trust me it is horrible. It looks like a Strat but it is not a strat. Good neck pickup but that's all. After 2 months the frets had huge dents. After two years they where unusable. Its a guitar just for strumming. Not soloing.
Very nice tone and playing. The Squier vs Fender debate will go on forever but it’s like this, a guitar is only as good as the player. While Squier is a budget Fender brand, some of the high end ones are now the price of a Mexican Standard and better in some ways. I own 2 Fender MIM Strats, one MIJ Squier and one MIK Squier, and I’ve just decided to buy a barely used Squier CV 60 in CAR from a work colleague going cheap. The high gloss on the maple fingerboard of the CV Strats and Teles is a turn off the so I would only buy rosewood in this models. Used they are excellent value for money but I don’t think I’d shell out 450 for a brand new one. They sound very good, are nice to play and are great for gigging. The beauty is they’re guitars you don’t have to worry about and you can’t beat that.
Great tone and look.
hey guys, i noticed the fretboard looks like a glass shining.. is that what you call a gloss finish?
First Name Last Name yes
very good guitar...but...trust me...I've owned em all....the American Standard is a big leap forward in quality performance sound constuction.playability pups pots ...oh here ..just everything...
This guitar sounds seriously good.
Wonderful demo man, cheers.
Fantastic and Sir you sure know how to demo and play great Thank you
For that price you can get a really nice Pacifica.
Wow! Extremely nice playing! And great sound to!
What is he playing starting 9:34 to 9:55, it's beautiful, pls let me know, I would like to learn
this guitar is the real deal
all of the classic vibes are good, but this one looks the best in wood grain
it's really a very beautiful and well made guitar !...
Sublime playing. Awesome review. Many thanks... 😊
Beautifull playing in the style of Eric Johnson, and great sound...
I'm a strat addict 🤟🎸 Fender d beeeeest
So wait this is the same as the current Squier 50's vibe strat? According to Musician's friend it states the following for the above model:
"2014 marks the diamond jubilee of the Stratocaster, but you'll strike pure gold when you get your hands on Squier' 60th Anniversary Classic Vibe ™50s Stratocaster. The instrument celebrates six decades of the world' greatest electric guitar with a truly gilded model featuring an Aztec Gold gloss finish and gold hardware.
Other features include a maple neck with a comfortable œmodern C profile, 9.5-radius maple fingerboard with 21 medium jumbo frets, three custom vintage-style single-coil Stratocaster pickups with five-way switching, three-ply parchment pickguard, vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge with six saddles and vintage-style tuners. Case sold separately."
Thanks for the honest review!
Thanks to this review - I bought one today :)
Great playing great sounding guitar I'm going to order one now...
That sounds great!!
Dude ,what kind of amp is you using ?Sounds like a fender twin ,very clear and distinct .The guitar is awesome and sounds better than the real thing !
China makes great guitars. So do a zillion other countries. These days making a quality instrument with good materials isn't particularly difficult.
Great tone man! but please, what is the amp?
If the trem is loose You can make it steady by putting something in the gap ?
My Squier is made in Japan, excellent guitar.

Bro that intro is the business
I bought it the red fiesta f s r with gold hardware it's awesome I 🇺🇸
This the nck is slimmer more reach mine is lndonesion there no difference between em these c.vibe are very well made i played on stage with it it gave lots of good tones just buy it I have my video shine on you crazy diamond part 1 a 2 and yul see what great guitar this is
is there also a review of the Squier 60ies Classic Vibe Strat (the one with a rosewood fretboard) done by Guitar Interactive?
great Sound and good Play
They are not only good "for the price" (i wish everybody would stop saying that). They are great guitars period. I own two cv telecasters and they ARE custom shop quality, nothing less !stop china bashing.The handmade parts (like the fretwork and the finish) are state of the art and they resonate like cazy (this video confirms).....
I own ten Squiers from 1989 up to 2004 , 3 of them I use to record with, one is stock, two have some things done to them,not much though, this one in the vid is pretty good . looks great too. I will not ever buy a Mexican Fender period , I rather spend the money on one of these.
had to pick up my guitar and double check this lol. whats with the tuning B string up to C and E string to F!????!
likes his perfect fourths i guess ;)
Great review. What amp were you using?
Only gripe is flimsy Trem block but I play hardtail anyway. Great guitar
Wow ,,,,,,Hell of a Guitar Player ,,, Hats off,,,
great feeling in your playing
I have this beauty. Let me tell you, if anyone tell you this is a good guitar for the price, you just kick them in the balls, because this guitar sounds great at any price. The squire anniversary was better then both the U.S. And Mexican versions. The poly is so slick though, makes it slippery.
Does the Squier Classic Vibe 50s and 60s guitars stay in tune with usage of the tremolo.
I have heard some people say that these guitars do stay in tune when the tremolo is used whereas some don't.
Who is right? I am going to go for the CV 60 so I need an honest answer.
Which amp is used for this demo?
I want to know too. What amp and was the overdrive a pedal or the amp gain alone?
Fabrizio Galilei ME TOO...I WANT TO KNOW
Great guitar. I have it in purple.
wich amp you used for this video?
Thanks
Amp?
Can you tell us which amp was used with this review ;) Thanks
What a good guitarist... Thanks!
Hi man! thanks for the video... what do you think is the diference of sound between an mexican strat and this squier?
Greetings from Chile!

Nice strat,great playing skills!
It's a great guitar! You are really the greattest review man!
I love this colour r these limited ed?
