Squier Contemporary Stratocaster HSS LRL, Pearl White Overview
Unique Strat sound doesn't usually come at a price as accessible as this. The Squier Contemporary Stratocaster HSS LRL has all of the hallmarks of classic Stratocaster tone and feel. A fast-playing maple neck with a "C"-shaped profile gives you speed and comfort in equal measure. And a top-class tremolo bridge is great for adding those iconic vibrations to your lead lines.
But this Strat is a little different. You don't just get those legendary features, but also a HSS pickup configuration that gives you a truly distinctive tone. Usually seen in expensive experimental models, the pairing of two super-sharp single coil pickups with a thick, dominating ceramic humbucker provides an expansive, versatile tone that suits, well, pretty much anything. And all of this at a brilliantly affordable price tag.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionThe Strat sound - with a twist
Familiar tone? Or a distinctive voice that you can't quite put your finger on? You decide. Either way, the Squier Contemporary Stratocaster provides a full, powerful voice that's flexible enough to fit any genre or style of playing. All of that iconic Strat tone is here, courtesy of a pair of ceramic single-coil pickups - one at the neck and one in the middle position. These carry all of the bright, sharp, sparkling sound that first made the Stratocaster a legend of the guitar world.
But if you're looking for something a little bit different, this fantastic model can offer that too. A zebra humbucker at the bridge brings an added kick of power, thickness, and dynamism to your playing. Adding a bit of rich humbucking tone, you've got everything you need for when you want your music to sound that bit bigger. 5-way switching means you've got plenty of options for changing up your sound on the fly, too. There's a whole lot to explore...
Playability that's engineered to perfection
Speed and comfort come together to provide you with a playing experience that's simply flawless. This Squier Strat has seen painstaking effort paid to its neck design. Crafted from maple and finished with satin urethane, it's smooth, slick, and will help you to effortlessly glide from note to note at rapid speed. And you'll gliding with total comfort, too. A "C"-shaped neck profile is ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand, meaning cramp and strain are minimised. You'll be playing on for hours.
All of the finishing touches
It's the little things that really make a guitar what it is. So Squier have ensured that alongside excellent sound and playability, there are also some superb finishing touches that take this instrument to the next level. A 2-point synchronised tremolo bridge is great for adding a unique, warbling edge to your playing. Die-cast tuning machines keep your strings in-check and pitch perfect for longer. And it really has to be said that this guitar is an absolute stunner. A pearl white finish complete with a striking black pickguard provides a touch of elegant, standout style.
