https://bit.ly/39srLf7 | Not all vintage guitars have such personal provenance, but this early-‘60s Fender Esquire came in w/ a photo of the kid who got it for Christmas in 1967! Manufactured during the final year that Fender used slab rosewood fingerboards, this single-pickup Esquire model came pre-routed for a neck pickup beneath the pickguard. But, as Nathaniel makes clear here—one pickup, a couple knobs, and a switch are all a skilled player ever really needs to make these things sing! . . .

The expanded Squier Contemporary Series guitars are perfect for the player seeking enticing high-performance features, bold aesthetics and remixes of familiar Fender platforms. These new models all feature modern-voiced Squier SQR™ pickups, rich-looking roasted maple necks for optimal stability, sculpted neck heels and painted headstocks with chrome logos for a super-premium look.
