You actually got me into building and playing guitars. Thanks Sir.

I’m enjoying your videos more and more with every posting. Your dry humor really lands well! Production values and your great guitar playing are icing on the cake.

I’ve almost (almost) gotten to the point where I consider Squier CV on par with big-daddy Fender. They are certainly more bang for the buck, and the quality is also right there. In fact, their QC may actually be better. And wow, that candy apple red is stunning!

[stringz.]

My favorite is the the sunburst 50’s CV Strat. The Squier CV 70’s Precision (walnut) is also outstanding

Great review, Landon. Also, love the dry sense of humour! Keep the amazing content coming, matey. Keep rocking!

[Artty-flul]

I like your reviews better than anyone else's. Your so thorough!

[tubularbill]

I have a Squier classic vibe Telecaster. The neck is phenomenal. I did redo the pick ups due to the sound I wanted but overall it is one awesome guitar.

[rikkr]

I've owned both and I personally think it most of it comes down to the QC put into each individual guitar.

I own a Squier CV 60's Strat in candy apply red. Such a comfortable neck. I love it!

[usuallyclueless]

I remember seeing something majorly positive about a squier strat recently. I believe it was a Paul Davids video where he went to a producers house and talked about how he uses an old $99 used Squier to record big label hits and background soundtracks for series.

Your humor gets better all the time 😂 Love your videos!

[drgiggles]

I just got one of these used for about 200 and I love it. It’s my first electric guitar. Feels like it was made for me

[braddietzmusic]

Beautiful guitar. Always a fan of that color combined with a dark wood fretboard, and in this case the vintage tint of the neck looks amazing too.

I absolutely LOVE my 50s CV Strat and 50s CV Tele. They’re from 2015/2016 (made in China) and they’re just wonderful guitars. I’m keeping them forever. Love love love.

That candy apple red is a lovely thing. Congrats!

i've got one of the Squier Paranormal Offset Telecasters and was very impressed with the overall quality. if i were to buy another Strat i would indeed look into the Classic Vibe Squiers.

[michaelmillican]

I have the same guitar as the candy apple red and I have a blue one too. I use them to gig with and practice. They are really nice guitars. I don't always want to bring my Fender stratocaster to the show.

You know, I never would have looked at a Squier a few months ago. Saved up for a jazzmaster, bought one had $ left over and the sales guy says "you have a tele?, you should try this squier did, was really surprised by it so I bought it and absolutely love it.

[matthewaltomare]

I bought a 60’s Classic Vibe in 2011. Had only played Gibson’s at that point, but all my guitar gods played strats. Great guitar for the money, but just really never liked the neck. It sounds great and more recently put an American Fender bridge and output jack in. Would absolutely love this guitar if the neck were more to my liking. Won’t sell it, but gets played the least

[DuplexIty]

my guitar is a 60's inspired strat and I love it, I've been playing for 4 months now. I'll def buy a squier 60's vibe in the future thank you Landon!

I absolutely love my 60s CV! I will say, that the volume pot went bad on mine, about 9 months out. However... I swapped the electronics for the Solderless kit from Mojotone, and the CV got even better! A great investment to upgrade to in case you need to. ...or you if just want to! Plus, swapping out pickups is soooo much nicer. I've put some Texas Specials on my CV for the time being. Had them installed in no time at all! No soldering! ...and I could swap back in the Alnicos just as quick.
