Great vintage-style guitar, especially for a Squier

I've not been a guitarist for long, but I wanted a vintage-style Jag for the tone and picked this one up for £350 when it was out of stock everywhere. It has amazing build quality, as well as featuring a genuine bone nut, and plays really well after a setup. The tone is incredibly versatile as it features the classic circuits and 'strangle' switch, and for single coils, it produces a really powerful sound.

There are only two issues I can pinpoint with the guitar. Mine shipped with loose knobs that had to be fixed during a setup, however, there were no broken parts, and it was most likely an issue with my online retailer as I didn't get it direct from Fender. The second issue I have is that pickup cavities are only big enough for single coils, a fact I only sadly discovered after purchase, so anyone looking to fit humbuckers will have to settle for an alternative, such as the Super Distortion S.

Overall, can really recommend this guitar after getting myself as my first offset, it feels incredibly comfortable to play and holds up really well in any genre, whether it be used for lead or rhythm.
