Squier Bullet Stratocaster Hard Tail Laurel Fingerboard Black
The Squier Bullet Stratocaster RW HT electric guitar is perfect for everyone from beginner to professional. The affordability of the model belies its comfortability, durable build quality and highly versatile tonal palette. If you're looking for that sleek Strat' style at a budget-friendly price, then look no further than this elegant beauty. From clean country licks to all-out rock bedlam, it is the ideal model to hone your skills on.
The Bullet Strat is built using lightweight basswood, which is a favourite of Squier’s due to its balanced tone. Offering the best of both worlds, it is comfortable to perform with and offers fantastic versatility across different musical styles. The classic deep double-cutaway Stratocaster profile is present and correct. Gently rounded edges combine with elegant curves to establish the figure-hugging feel that has made the Strat such a beloved model. Once you pick it up and play for yourself, you'll instantly understand why so many have made the Strat their go-to both on the stage and in the studio. A protective coating of polyurethane upholds the integrity of the paintwork, enabling you to appreciate it for as long as possible.
Joined to the body is an impressive maple neck, which boasts a generous 25.5-inch scale length to promote a sparkling response from the strings. The "C"-shape neck profile gives it a comfortable feel in the hand, whilst another coating of polyurethane allows your fretting hand to shift seamlessly along. Paired with the neck is a sumptuous feeling rosewood fingerboard, which is home to 21 medium-jumbo frets that are inlaid with pearloid dot position inlays. The 9.5-inch fingerboard radius aligns with the natural resting position of your fingers. Whether you're fretting chords, laying down lightning fast legato, sweeping through arpeggios and bending strings with abandon, you can do it all with the utmost grace.
The Squier Bullet Stratocaster is equipped with a classic setup that comprises a trio of single-coils to play with. The five-way pickup selector switch opens up a vast tonal universe for you to explore. The master volume pot sits alongside a pair of tone pots, one for the neck pickup and one for the bridge. There isn't anything that this guitar can't turn its hand to. Whether you're playing clean licks across country, funk or jazz, or cranking it up with some saturated blues or hard rock riffs, the Bullet Strat is a musical chameleon that thrives on adventure.
As the name suggests, the Squier Bullet Strat HT is equipped with a 6-saddle non-tremolo hard tail bridge. Each string is afforded a flush connection with the body to optimise intonation and sustain. Adjustment can be refined with deft precision. Tuning integrity is upheld by the standard die-cast tuning machines on the headstock, which secure each string throughout the most demanding of performances. For such an affordable model, the Bullet Strat punches well above its price tag, and any guitarist would fall for its charm.
