Classic Strat Tone and Playability from Squier

Get classic Strat design, playability, and tone with the Affinity Stratocaster HSS from Squier. The Affinity Strat features a lightweight, resonant poplar body finished in an eye-popping gloss for incredible resonance and comfortable play. A beautiful maple neck with Indian laurel fingerboard offers impeccable response and feel as well, ideal for any style or genre. And a versatile trio of pickups, 2 single-coil and 1 humbucker, offers you the best of both worlds and a ton of classic tone. This awesome axe also features the ever-popular synchronous tremolo bridge that provides all the dive-bombing stylings you desire. Strat fans here at Musiekwereld — and there are many — have been consistently blown away with how amazing this electric sounds and feels. 

Versatile trio of pickups

The Affinity Strat has been wired for tone with a mind-blowing array of sound-shaping at your fingertips. The two single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions let you dial up all the classic, punchy tone you expect from single-coils. A solo humbucker in the bridge position brings the crunch and growl when you want to get a bit heavier. And with a five-position blade switch, Master Volume, and two tone controls, you have a wide array of sounds to dial in along with near-infinite stylistic colorings to explore across genres.

That Strat neck!

The Strat neck is the stuff of legend for its unique feel and response. The “C” profile bolt-on maple neck on the Affinity delivers vintage feel and playability. The Indian laurel fingerboard features 21 medium jumbo frets for comfortable, nearly effortless chording and smooth lead runs — ideal for long nights of jamming and performing. Your leads will take flight with the synchronous tremolo bridge. This innovative bridge moves both the bridge and the tailpiece, making up-bends easier and smoother. Your unique accented bends that define your style will find a home with this popular bridge.
