Squier - Classic Vibe '50s Stratocaster HT - Shell Pink #0374008556
A celebration of the early days of the Strat® in the 1950s, the Classic Vibe™ ‘50s Stratocaster® HT produces incredible tone courtesy of its three Fender Designed™ alnico single-coil pickups. An option first introduced in 1955, the hardtail bridge (HT) provides stable intonation and its string-through-body design creates optimal body resonance. This throwback Squier model also features 1950s-inspired headstock markings, rich-looking nickel-plated hardware and a slick vintage-tinted gloss neck finish for an old-school vibe.

The Nantel Verdict
The Nantel Verdict
Five distinct pickup positions for the widest tonal range of any electric guitar design. Iconic contoured double-cutaway body that's comfortable for hours of playing. Tremolo system adding vibrato expression to every note. The design that shaped the sound of modern popular music.
Positions 2 and 4 on the 5-way switch are where the Strat magic lives - that glassy, bell-like quack is unlike anything else in the guitar world. Add a splash of spring reverb for instant inspiration.
The Stratocaster is the most versatile electric guitar ever designed - full stop. Five pickup positions cover every genre imaginable, the contoured body makes even marathon sessions comfortable, and that unmistakable Strat tone has been the soundtrack of popular music for seven decades. If you could only own one electric guitar, this design would be the smartest choice.
