A tribute to the double-bound body Esquire® models of the late ’50s and ’60s, the Classic Vibe™ Custom Esquire creates incredible tone courtesy of its Fender Designed™ alnico single-coil bridge pickup. An innovative feature of the day, the 3-position blade switch provides versatile tone settings including tone control bypass, variable tone control, as well as a pre-set tone capacitor for bass-y warmth. This throwback Squier® model also features period-inspired headstock markings, rich-looking nickel-plated hardware and a slick vintage-tint gloss neck finish for an old-school vibe.

• CASE/GIG BAG: Not Included.
