Squier® Vintage Modified Fat Strat HSS Electric Guitar - Black

New Vintage-Modified Stratocasters Bring Custom Finishes and Features to New Levels of Affordability!

This ain't your daddy's Squier! Fender is proud to introduce its new Squier Vintage Modified Series of Stratocaster guitars to aspiring players everywhere, delivering smooth playability, killer looks and custom "hot-rod" modifications that players have been making on their guitars for years.

This new Squier series brings some very popular tweaks to classic guitar designs, eliminating the hassle of instrument modification and giving beginning-to-intermediate guitarists more tonal and cosmetic options.

"Whether it's installing hotter pickups, alternate pickguards or just plain personalizing instruments with fancy paint jobs, modified means adding new twists to familiar designs," commented Squier Marketing Manager Chris Gill. "To put it simply, why do it yourself when you can have Squier do it for you?"

For Strat fanatics seeking a little extra growl, Squier offers the Vintage Modified Strat HSS, which includes a gloss-finished maple neck, two Duncan Designed™ Strat Stack hum-canceling pickups, and an HB-112 humbucking bridge pickup for that big, chunky low end-perfect for hard rock and metal.

"Don't risk taking your instrument to a chop shop," concluded Gill. "Let Squier mod your guitar for you!"Specifications:
