The Squier Affinity Stratocaster MN Black is probably the most affordable way to get a real Stratocaster. The Fender-licensed instrument with official shaping and dimensions offers the sound and feel of the coveted classic.

Traditionally built Strat

The Affinity Stratocaster features an ergonomically shaped poplar body and a bolt-on maple neck with the familiar slim C-profile for comfortable playability of all 21 frets.

Ceramic Single-Coils and 2-Point Synchronized Tremolo

Played on an amplifier, three ceramic single-coils draw the unmistakable Strat sounds from their respective positions and, thanks to traditional wiring, deliver all the sounds of the model including the airy, clear intermediate positions of the pickup selector switch. Completing the Affinity Stratocaster MN Black electric guitar is a modern 2-point tremolo system that adds dazzling pitch modulation to melodies and chords, and six tunable die-cast tuners with vintage "split" winding axles.
