Condition Report: This is the section that we take our time to fill out every detail that we find, and we are very picky. If you are looking for a VERY GOOD condition version from Squier, then you have found it. This is the thicker 40MM version that has the HSS setup to accommodate this configuration. The only damages are some minor clear coat scuffs if you tilt it in the light. Even the neck pocket wings are FLAWLESS which is rare on any Squier. The truss rod works perfectly (4MM Wrench), and relief has been set to .011 at the 8th fret. The bridge is immaculate, and all of the electronics have been tested, cleaned, and work as they should. The string trees have been upgraded to the Fender American Standard rollers as they help the overall tuning stability vs the factory Squier versions. The pickup setup is the same as the one we sell in the Vandalism series that has been reviewed hundreds of times on eBay and here on Reverb and has yet to receive a negative review. The electronics have all been soldered to the highest standard level and work as they should. The action on this guitar is set nicely, and the setup is handling it with ease. We would stack the overall playability and sound of this guitar against the best Fender series coming out of the Mexico facility today or any year. Professionally cleaned (thoroughly) and setup with Fender Super 250's 10-46 in December of 2025. This sounds and feels better than it looks and it's a 10 out of 10 in our opinion. You will not be disappointed in any way with this classic addition to your collection. The gig bag is the $80-$100 versions and not the original flimsy dust cover style.
