Squier is a subsidiary of Fender for inexpensive entry-level electric guitars and electric basses and the only manufacturer that is legally allowed to make exact copies of the great models, especially with regard to the legendary headstock.
The history of the Squier company goes back to 1881. The English emigrant Jerome Bonapart Squier manufactured European- technology violins in the USA, the high quality of which soon became popular. In addition to building instruments, they soon began producing suitable violin strings, and later also for the newly emerging, electrically amplified instruments. From 1950 Squier was the official strings supplier for Fender and was bought by Fender in 1965. In order to counteract the extreme flood of plagiarism from the Far East, official and licensed copies of the most sought-after guitars such as the Fender Stratocaster , Fender Telecaster , Fender Precision Bass and Fender Jazz Bass began to be manufactured in Japan in the early 1980s.
Today, the Squier Bullet Strat is the cheapest way to buy a Stratocaster guitar, also known as a Strat, that is as true to the original as possible and is particularly popular with beginners. As frame of the Squier Affinity series above, you can get Stratocaster as well as Telecaster and P-Bass models in various popular colors as well as entire starter sets with an amplifier model, strap and cable . The Squier Classic Vibe series is recommended to anyone who likes Fender 's Vintage guitars and still wants to pay attention to the price. Here you can get the most popular Stratocaster, Telecaster, Jazzmaster, Jazz Bass and Precision Bass instruments from the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s with the appropriate equipment, design and color / finish at a great price/performance ratio. Squier's Contemporary series or Paranormal series also includes more unusual electric guitar models designed for modern and harder music.
Overall, it can be said that Squier guitars are not only a great option for beginners, but are also worthwhile for more experienced guitarists who are looking for the cheapest possible guitar with a Fender feel and optics .
