This is not my first Squier; I've had a jazz semi-hollow for 20 years! I also own a Fender Stratocaster Red which is my favorite guitar. Decided to get myself a Telecaster without spending too much, I chose this beautiful butterscotch Telecaster. The finish is perfect (it still deserves some adjustments) and the sound is up to what you expect from this type of guitar. I use it for some blues, a few Gilmour pieces, and the Stones. Honestly, for this price, it's a very good guitar!

Nice guitar, but plan a visit to a luthier to do the intonation, because it is completely off at delivery. (I had to buy staggered vintage saddles)
The feel is good,
The finish is very, even too thick, basically polyurethane.
For the price, the pickups are not too bad, but should be changed quickly for something more pleasant, even if at first it can do the job.
EDIT: I put Fender 51 Nocaster pickups and it is now my most used guitar
Good for the price, it's not that bad.

Excellent guitar for a very reasonable price!
Already owning a Fender Strat Apple Red, I wanted to acquire a Telecaster without paying the Fender price. So my choice turned to Squier, which I already knew (I have an old 1/2 hollow Jazz Squier).
Easy to play, this Classic Vibe 50s Telecaster is top-notch!
The Butterscotch Blonde finish is superb and very neat. The thin C-shaped neck is very comfortable.
The single-coil alnico pickups have a very good sound and are very versatile. I mainly play blues, rock, and jazz on a Roland Blues Cube amp; no complaints about the settings. The hardware is very decent.
Of course, it's not a Fender, but for this price, it's unbeatable!
Squier has made a magnificent guitar for an unbeatable price!

A Telecaster like in 1951 (except for the nickel saddles easily replaceable with brass ones) at an unbeatable price and considering the overall quality (impeccable craftsmanship, perfect pickups...) I use it for country style... it's top-notch... Thank you for everything...

Why pay more? I own the very first CV Stratocaster model made in China and I must say this model is just as good. I will just change the metal saddles for brass saddles.

Superb guitar, top-notch finish, top-notch sound. Unbeatable value for money. I will just change the mounted saddles for brass saddles. Everything else is all good.

After a few adjustments, the guitar is ready to be played. Excellent value for money, although the pickups could be improved.

Very nice guitar for the price. Impeccable finish.
Hesitated with the player (which I did not have in hand) but no regrets. Just needed to raise the 3 bass strings with the provided wrench.

The quality of the Squier is beyond doubt, the only small drawback is the string tension which I find a bit harsh, otherwise everything is ok
