Yessir. A 1993 Squier Stratocaster with hidden history. Poor Thing was abandoned twice, yet still managed to land itself on my workbench. This thing rips. Dig it.
Thanks Tom for the free guitar :) Rest easy.

The long-form videos are excellent. I'm really loving them!
Absolutely love the long form videos Mr.Piscopo! Looking forward for more!
My favourite bit is that you kept the Punk Rock history of the guitar intact. The stickers, the pickup swap, the mojo!
Everyone else would’ve peeled the stickers off, refinished it, cleaned it up to the point that it’s unrecognisable.
You wouldn’t dare to remove the original paint off of a vintage 60s Fender, so why do the same to a 90s Squier with an equal amount of personality!
Keep the long form videos coming, I can tell you've prepared them in advance and they're looking to be great so far!
When you hooked up the guitars to the DS1 I actually liked the sound of the Squier most. Goes to show how much a good setup can do for a cheap guitar
The squire has a humbucker in the bridge compared to the custom shop which has a more traditional three single coil configuration, which is why it sounded more like the nirvana riff he was playing. Still cool find tho!
@@michelleneeds4165 true that, I forgot to mention that in my comment. I’ve always been way more partial to how humbuckers sound so that’s definitely why
Great video! Lately you’ve been a huge inspiration to me as a guitar player! Thank you!
So nice to see this guitar have a second life. It sounds great just like your 63. My first two guitars were from this time period and I was told the same thing when I got them in the mid 90s. America parts made in Mexico. The guitars were under 200 dollars.
These videos are the best Guitar content. Please keep doing these longer videos we love em.
These videos are freaking awesome! So much fun!
4:19 speaking of that, I actually own a Kurt Cobain vandalism Strat. It was actually an handmade Custume replica I made with my dad, and I still have it to this very day of course, with no dents or chips or tape like that.
just simply clean with the sticker but I’m glad to see the previous owner got inspired by a legend’s guitar.
Dude that’s sick
@@boogiman32 thanks!
They threw away a perfectly functional Squier strat with a Seymour Duncan pickup in a dumpster ??
People are crazy...or weird...
Their loss...your gain...
I can relate to that, out of the 167 guitars in my collection 8 were found in dumpsters or on the side of the road or in old dusty attics of the house my parents ( or me later ) had bought...
Maybe I do attract them 🙂 ?
You should do more long-form content. You're insight and presentation is very entertaining
I hope you make more vids like this, I love the longer format vids
keep it up with the long form videos man, fits your humor and the way you make your content realy well!
I like your full videos much more than shorts, keep it up!
I love the long form content, please keep it up!!!!!
I’m a bass player but you are one of my favorite creators, keep the long form videos going!
I gotta say, I absolutely love your longform content. Keep it up dude!
Please keep making lomg form content! This is 100 times better than short form content.
did a hell of a job man, it had such a unique sound too
I always see this guy in yt shorts and i love this guys content
Good to see some respect for the squire. So overheated. Keep up the good work mike
Great Video Love The Guitar.
That bridge pickup is gorgeous. Definitely not stock
Screaming Demon. George Lynch’s pickup. I got the same one in my 96 mustang. It was a solution for us back in those days
Yoo more full vids loving them bro
Cool single coil sized humbucker
Thanks For Sharing 🎸🎶 💪
Still have my HSS Squier Bullet Strat for 2 years and still love it to death, never wanted to upgrade it to a Fender.
Nice video man! By the way, I don't know if you already do this, but I'd recommend to set up the guitar with the TRAIN method. (Tune, Relief, Action, Intonation, Noodle). It has been pretty effective with my guitars! Nice restoration though, keep up the nice work. :)
Great job, bud🤩
Digging these longer vids
love your videos :)
I wish I could work with you and restore these guitars would be soo much fun to do
Your vids are awesome good work
That long videos are really good
Love the videos keep it up 👍🤘🤘
Love these videos I have a squire that I’ve restored and I. Gonna mod it soon
Do more full length vids
Also what a lovley guitar there
Should've put a flat end against the flat part of the nut (from the fretted side) and given it a tap tap to remove the nut. Also remember to take 0000 wool across the length of the frets. You removed gunk off the board but added scratches to the frets which you can feel with bending
That riff at the beginning tho
Great vid
Love it
awesome video
keep making these longer videos
Nice video!
I love your ds1 phone
what is the song he plays at the start at 0:14?
Looks like there’s a SD screaming demon stack in the bridge too! Score!
i would love to watch a video of u just playing like u did at the end aswell
W as allways
Nice guitar
Let's go!!!
damn, that is such a cool guitar with a JB junior to my suprise lol
Employed this dude
The dumpster squier nailed the Mr moustache tone
Glad I just joined🙂🙃😎🎸🎸🎸🎸
You should do a guitar collection
what kind of pick up is in the bridge? Is it a mini jb
Rad but surprising no truss tweak needed? All the frets were level, smooth? Sounds really good and the longer vid length is nice too.
Squiers are great
This Video is cool😃
Finnely longer videos
MOOOOORE OF THEESE LONNG VIDDDDDDDDDDDDEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
Long form content>>> 🤙
Great video, what was the song you were playing in the intro? (0:14)
Mr mustache🔥🔥🔥
Can you make a video about active and passive guitar pick-ups? I don't see much people know this. You're videos are like consantrated package food, has a little length and you think this won't be enough, but when you open it... And also thanks! 😅
Nice video! Do more longforms! As good as your shorts!
Also,
SQUIRES DONT SUCK!
Another long from video let’s go
Can you make a vido of your first guitar and story of it
i have a black label strat. bought it for like 300 and i’ve covered that mf in stickers cause im not letting go of it
The squire sounded perfect for mr. Moustache
Do one on the jaguar!!!
noice!
Hey man I’m gonna get any first strap can you help me understand how it works and how to get Jimi Hendrix’s tones and Stevie Ray Vaughan please? Thank you
From my experience, Squier's that are crafted in Indonesia are usually really well made guitars, far superior to the same guitar but made in China
Can you do more of these long form video's
Heyy!!! You can just get PUSHED TO POINT!!!
I tried to smash my tv screen out with my American strat (has a blast mark like that)
That was my Girlfriend at the time and I arguing while drinking a handle of Sailor Jerry's rum!
I was cool!!! She just KNEW how to push it!!
Didnt bust the TV (oldskool thick glass tv) BUT it stopped the argument! I think I sent upstairs and she stayed down or I stayed down and she went up?
Nearly 20 years AGO!?!?
My gawd I'm getting OLD!!!!
👍
Damn, I didn’t know my friends call me cunning
Nice floyd the barber at the end there
That was Mr. Moustache.
@watchmangamer4380 Thanks. Its been 30 something years, so my recall is a bit rusty. Only reason I can still recognize any of it at all is because I fell asleep with the album on repeat for the entirety of 9th grade. I'm surprised the decades of partying haven't wiped my memory of those days completely clean lol.
Can anyone tell me what song he’s playing at the start of the vid?
Whats the name of the song from the start?
Someone has to know what the song at the beginning is
Distortion sounds best on the squire
whats the song in the beginning called?🥺🥺❤
thoughts on ibanez??
Anyone know what that song at 0:14 is?
The MN on the serial number on your head stock indicates Made in Mexico. My understanding is what you have is essentially what would today be a Mexican Strat. It's also my understanding that in the 90s, Squire was not so much the budget reputation, but what Fender branded their Mexican and Japanese made guitars in the 90s. I did a little research when I had bought a Jazz Bass (turned out MIM) from a garage sale for $150. It's '94 and say Fender in the big logo, but in fine print says "Squire® Series"
what song was that😍😍
what is the song at 6:43 called again, I know its Nirvana but I cant remember the name?
found it, its Mr. Moustache
Aaa someone has the name of the first song???
Song name from intro? 0:15
Is this Mikey Piscipo?
💀I know that’s a Donner
That’s mine
Has anyone ever told you that you look like Brad Kalvo?
HE USED DISTORTIN
im so good at aspeling
1:45 is that Nirvana - About a girl I hear?
Make more long video
