Squire/ fender
Not what they used to be.
If your going to buy something like them,
Get a G&L
Not cheap but a quality build for sure.
SCAR/////// BADLY IS THE WRONG TERM. .., use the word - easy. ......I am not knocking you nor being pedantic.Just know how to adopt/adapt/apply catchphrases. Use them wisely. words and phrases sell product's. . it is marketing sales.Also known as sloganology... wish you well with your sales etc. But tighten up the terminology .good luck. njoy.thanks for the videos etc, positivity= surpasses negativity. Excel within the self and the energy shall grow and flow.
@@doonthepan1290Hello. My, but you write with an amazing basketful of errors. Sean has not conveyed his feelings to me, but I’m sure he appreciates grammatical corrections and advice from someone well versed in that area of expertise. Please do be a darling and let him know if you locate one. Now if your use of punctuation, capital letters, spelling, and sentence structure, is anything to go by, it’s obvious you’ve never even met anyone with such skills, but since you brought it up, the veracity of your desire to help Sean will have to be judged by your willingness to find someone who is more familiar with the english language than yourself. However, if your true purpose is to troll, perhaps you would enjoy trying your trolling skills with yours truly. I’d be more than happy to oblige. Stay in school, snowflake.
American English is American, not English - why can’t they adopt different spelling’s for things? It identifies the author as an American, not a Brit, and I can’t see what the problem is with that. 🤷♂️
Happy birthday, Sean and thanks
I’ve learned a lot just by watching your videos💯💪👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Enjoy your birthday present - it’s literally killer! Shoutout to Michael Philpot for the bridge suggestion!
Btw, I spy some Reapers on the wall!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Happy Birthday! My grandson got an Affinity Squier Stratocaster with his snow shoveling money. I'm paying for his lessons and strings. I'm planning to get a Amazon guitar for my 68th birthday on the 13th. I'm looking for one with a flame maple top. I will be taking lessons too. I'm a keyboard player. Thanks for all the good info!
“Are you not entertained” the Gladiator of Guitars😂
Happy Birthday! I have been subbed to your channel for a couple of months now & I am really looking at “cheap” guitars a lot differently these days. Personally I have always thought that any guitar has potential if it is built right. Looking forwards to your Squire video.🎉🎉🎉🎉
That reaper looks like a pissed off SG. Bad ass guitar dude
Looks good! Happy birthday! 🎉😊
Paulonia is cool. It grows much faster than other trees (less than 30 vs. several hundred for mahogany) used for wood. It's not the hardest, but it's hard enough for most things.
Guyker stuff is great!!! I use their locking tuners on my squiers
I really like Guyker trems and locking tuners, I use em on all of my guitar builds and rebuilds. Love your show by the way, l learned a lot watching you and I want to tell you I really appreciate it.
I love your no nonsense luthier work vids. They're a big help to us novice repairer's. TY.
I have learned so much from Sean in watching his videos. He has a great personality to teach the ways to make the guitar you have better with good setup, a few replacements and just good common sense. I believe that he should get an award for the best guitar setup and building website and Cathy for the best pickup and the process of making them. Can I get a second? We need to start a petition. 50,000 subscribers coming right up!
Congrats on your birthday guitar, Sean! But man, if they made that gig bag any thinner, it'd be inside out in another dimension!
Happy Birthday!!! Love your channel there is seriously nothing like it out there. Feels like home since I live down south!
Happy Birthday Sean!! Keep on Rockin those Scarred Guitars!!!
The holes in the body are to index the body in the milling machine while its being routed and cut out.
Sean! Dude! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! So… you get a gift guitar from your wife, Cathy, and then you mod it up; on video, to be seen by all the people of Earth, and all of this on your birthday!!
And you want to know if I like a Squier more than I like a birthday guitar which my mentor upgraded? Of course you’re a mentor to me, Sean. Just like you are to a lot of the people who watch your videos regularly.
You got a great sense of humor, but it ain’t the reason we flock to you and Cathy. Thank you both for all the hard work you two put in on making videos; all the hard work you put in behind it, the recording and editing, just coming up with the ideas and how you’re gonna show them, the music you write and perform, making it all look natural when most of it’s been worked out before the shows, all the deadlines and those two or three “loussy, steenkeen trolls that don’ give a damn ‘cos they don’ know chit”!
And lets not forget all the stuff you guys show us, where we learn stuff that we can take with us. When your shows are over, we’re smarter than when the shows started. Man, oh man! The work you guys do is just unbelievable. So on behalf of your fanbase, and on your birthday, and on account of you deserving it…
Thank you! for all that you do.
P.S.: I choose the birthday scarred guitar because it’s a better guitar than that Squier.
When you started playing, I took my lighter out and lit it. 🤣 I'm down with BCP 😂🤣
That green reaper makes me drool.
Happy birthday Sean. My Mexican fender tele and strat sat unused in cases not being used because I was scared of damaging such expensive instruments. Sold the tele, and the strat is now up for sale. I get more fun and enjoyment out of my cheap guitars.
I didn't know they could put a zipper on a trash bag? Those Chinese are so inventive!
That is a Magic Guitar! It doesn't matter how many times you wipe it down, it magicly keeps producing sawdust and trash. Maybe call this one The Sandman!
Or Sawdust 😂
Just put Guyker hardware on my Jackson. Can't believe the quality for the price. Made a night and day difference in my tuning stability.
Happy birthday man and many more !!
I expect you to write a song with the title “for a guy like me”. If you don’t write it, I’ll have to.
Happy birthday Sean!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Yes ,that hole is for painting the body.
A couple of years ago I wanted a Cheap guitar to kinda stay in shape while on military school and I checked out a couple of squires and a really pretty Thinline one but they didn’t feel or sound right. Ended up buying a Donner Thinline and boy do i love that guitar!!!! 139 opposed to 450 I think the Squire was!
Happy birthday! Nice lookin' geetar there.
Yeah, ceramics are great for bright sounds -- they finally let me learn how to use my previously pointless tone knobs!
I personally wouldn't buy those $199 Squier Sonic Series. I'd get a used (and discontinued) Squier Standard Series for $150 with the full thickness body for mods, staggered alnico pickups stock, and better fit on Fender-spec after-market parts.
I like guyker products , I have their vintage locking tuners on all my vintage guitars
It's $119 now on Amazon...
Happy Birthday my friend, I really enjoy your channel.
I just put a guyker trem bridge on my squier cv70 strat. I used their prs style trem bridge and it is absolutely fantastic. The fit, the weight, and the action are all awesome. Plus it has the push in style trem arm with the tension screw.
Hell yeah! Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday Sean, another cool video!
Mr. Scar, Another Great video here, thanks, keep Em Comin Man, Cousin Figel
Happy birthday. Enjoy your guy’s videos. All the best.
Happy Birthday Sean. Good show.
Those pickups are sweet. Sounds like you had a great birthday Sean. Great job.
Great video and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
That thing's a monster ! Really like the sound of the pickups.
Great show, great shop class
Best guitar chanal on youtube if you ask me.
Happy Birthday!!! Mine was the 4th!!
I'm liking those wall hangers
Did the trem swap to heavier trem make the guitar acoustically quieter?. Judging from the video it sounded like that.
Thanks for your show
She looked pretty comin out the box .
Those pickups sound awesome
I have a guyker tremolo I put on my TEMU build and I'm eventually going to put them on all my strats.
Here in North Carolina this guitar kit is 119 bucks plus an extra 10% at checkout
Happy Birthday Young man!
That is a beautiful guitar! Love the color, the binding, the headstock looks nice…. The bcp looks better than fesley!! I would totally buy this if I needed another strat. Nice video
Facial expressions are classic! Love it!🤘🏻
Happy Birthday buddy.
I really like the black hardware..
A set of Kathy's pickups makes that a killer❤
That guitar has a very unique sound.
I was waiting for you to review this guitar I was tempted to purchase guitar 🎸 thanks 🙏 you 😊
Happy Birthday Sean!!
Well done Cath,,,I think you've made Hubby a happy man!
Happy Birthday Sean!
I watched this on my big screen and I am amazed at how much it is like my Silvertone. Mine is plywood and has a swimming pool sized rout. The ceramic magnets are really heavy and have thick magnets and I played it today and it sounds a lot like it. I’m going to have to get another victim for my Cathybuckers. And the headstock is even shaped similarly. I’m kind of surprised. I think it’s a Samick from Vietnam. I need a pawn shop hull to do. What pots and switches do I need? I have that Tele, and after going through this one again and setting it up, a brakleenon some stuff, the static is gone and it sounds like a Strat. I had a bow in the neck that was causing the buzz. I did it once, but doing it again your way made it a different guitar.
This is funny but I used some candle wax on the Ceramic pickups, just poured it on them with on each side and cleaned the pickguard, but it worked they sound like new and they have thick magnets. I m just going to let that one be. I am pretty sure it’s a Vietnamese Samick. Turned out. That neck pocket trick on that beautiful piece of art is a wonderful touch!
Holy crap - it's my birthday this year too!!!!!
Love the vids bro.
Im lefthanded tomorrow I get my Guitar form Harley Benton.stratacaster left-hand $144 pick ups Alnico 5 I also bought a new trim bar and block and I have locking tuners on order cause I’ don’t like cheap ones that come on there I can’t stand.them is my favorite color green
Happy Birthday! The quality control does vary with Squiers, I have noticed between Chinese made vs Indonesian made ones. I agree that the Squiers do require upgrades along with fretwork and modifications. Any experience with a 2 point trem vs the 6 point trem?
That's a cold shot guitar! Gotta get me a strat with binding
That BCP Strat has a TON of "stank" on it, for the money! Cathy has done it again! Great buy! 👍👍👍
Did you like this over the fesley or lynxpro or even indio?
Also the I have the roller guyker bridge for my ibanez semi hollow. Such a huge upgrade!
i like the twang it has. I might try one pretty soon
those Reapers are sexy... Happy birthday Sean.
Very cool upgrades. You sure know how to get these cheap guitars to play great. Impressive!
Pretty sweet guitar. Gonna check out that brand.
I couldn’t help but check out that wall. Couldn’t make the live unfortunately life/work gets in the way sometimes but that’s ok. Grateful I can go to work at this point. There’s always something I can take away from y’all’s videos and I appreciate that.
Happy happy birthday Sean killer Guitar and thank you for the amazing channel that you and Kathy have and her new channel. It’s an awesome thing. God bless you guys happy birthday dude.
Finger slicers on the fretboard
That is not a gig bag,it is a dust cover.
Dude, I love watching your videos,
💯💪👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@shawn.
Who pioneered cnc guitars?
As Always Have a Great Night & Happy B-Dal Sean, Cathy, & Everyone Scarred ...
Live Free or Die, From New Hampshire !!!
That white crap was probably the dust from the thin styrofoam wrapping. Got a ton of stuff in the mail with dust like that. Also, I have two of these guitars, pre-BCP logo added to the headstock. One blue like yours, and the other a tobacco burst! Love BOTH of them! All I did to them was just minor fret work, new strings, and let them rip. I wanted to get the tobacco burst so I could wire it super strat style, but it is so nice, I'm leaving it as is.
Guyker is making some decent stuff for cheap. Had a set of locking tuners for $30 and they were fine, especially on a $200 guitar.
My Birthday is May 16 and all I want is a Scared Guitar with some Scared pickups 😊😊😊
Funny as! Takes his Birthday present, plays it unplugged, then tears it apart!
Those fret edges.... ouch man. They'd rip your fingers to bits. Still, it all came good in the end... lol!
The guitar that you have right there BCP they are the initials for Blair county prison I live right around the corner from the prison that's funny the initials on the guitar😂
Cool guitar. Reminds me of a fender aerodyne strat
Nice one Sean, new sub, dig your content.
Awesome, thank you!
@@scarmyguitar just watched your firefly review, it really hits those rich n twangy tones, like you i have tinkered with guitars all my life, cheap and high end. My fave project was reshaping the neck on a red squier mini strat, its a great little machine. What a difference a set up makes, nuff said. Thanks for your southern swagger too , im in Australia so we love y'all over here in the real south 👍
Does the back of the headstock have some delamination? Around 05:17.
I got a wilkonson 2 point trem and it didn't line up at all on my Squire
I've been mentioning Guyker in your chats a lot. I've been using the tuners for years. You just have to study the specs. They have 21:1 ratio ones for $38 a set. I've never tried their trem blocks though. Kaisch is another good quality brand on Amazon. Another great video! Love you guys!
these guitars are great to learn to mod to setup your own guitars, many of these guitars just need a good setup , I still would swap out the pickups , there is loads of decent aftermarket affordable brands out there, and you could put in the Mrs pickups , love your channel it's tell folks you don't need to go out spend thousands both of my guitars are Vintage brand distributed by JHS here in the UK both stock and I would put them against the big boys any day esp my V6P with American Alder body and 3 Wilkinson P90's , the trem block is a great upgrade all Vintages Strat style come with a full size trem block but its staggered and the tuning stability on my Strat type V6P the last time I tuned her was 3 weeks ago , unfortunately many of these Amazon guitars in the US are not available on the UK Amazon store , I just love your channel your real no bull straight up , cheers ! Oh look at the picture of my UA-cam icon that's my Vintage guitars , have a good one ,
I have guyker tuners on 2 of my guitars. They are really stable one look great too.
I'd say for
$119 on Amazon right now
@@mikeg6666 - I was including the cost of the tuners and bridge he installed.

Hey Shawn does Cathy sell pickups? I’m wanting a set of hss alnico 5 pickups that are overwound but not crazy hot, I like the Seymour Duncan pearly gates type my favorite guitar has really hot ceramic pickups in it which is the only thing I don’t love about it. Thanks
They sell them on ebay
I was gawkin' at those Reapers, caught me red handed.
This guitar has some nice bones for modding ,I think I'll give one a try, then I'll be saving up for a kick ass REAPER.
I still see the light blue Fojill back there too, now you have 2 Fender killers!!!!
My Sam Ash Squier with 2 Humbuckers is my favorite guitar.
I put guyker locking tuners on all my guitars. 🤘🏻
That BCP is gorgereux! At $139 (slightly higher in Canada) it might make me a strat wanker. It seems to have a great deal of tonal range.
