Technically Squier is the only other company/brand out there that can officially call their guitars Stratocaster and Telecaster, and are also the only other company that can have the exact headstock shapes as Fender. Any other company that has a headstock shape like a Fender is either using it illegally, or has some sort of licensing agreement with Fender. So while Fender does not have copyrights on the Tele and Strat body shape, they and Squier are the only company who can officially market "Stratocasters" and "Telecasters", every other company has to come up with their own name, like ASAT, RAMPAGE, STL, etc...

^yeap, so if you wanna get a Fender Stratocaster or Telecaster but you can't afford them, you can get the next best thing which is a Squier Strat or Tele! :wink:

i would like to say that squiers are good. it's the same story with these guitars as other higher end fenders like the standards and americans.


It's like this. All guitars are like apples. you may get a really nice crisp and juicy apple, or you can get a bruised or unripe apple. it's with all guitars. it's just that you're more likely to get the latter with squiers or lower end epiphones. some squiers are comparable to Mim's, as people have mentioned. i have a squier bullet, gonna get a fender soon. It looks nice, and sounds pretty good.

so it's about luck. :)
