The Squier Classic Vibe ’50s Telecaster in butterscotch blonde delivers an original promise. Setting this guitar apart from the Classic Vibe ’50s Telecaster in vintage blonde, is a custom set of alnico 5 single-coil pickups that provide warmth and clarity and enough punch for country, blues, rock and jazz. The Telecaster quickly became an everyman’s guitar in the 1950s because of its versatile sound, ease of playing and reasonable cost.

The Classic Vibe '50s Telecaster features include a gorgeous butterscotch blonde finish on a pine body, and a vintage-tint gloss fast-action maple neck with 21 medium-jumbo frets and modern 9.5 inch fretboard radius.

This is my second one!
Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
I like Felix Unger when I purchase a guitar. Enough said, this is my second one. My son took over my first. He plays a strat exclusively and has three a '57, '62 which are originals and a new standard strat. When he played this at a gig he made it his number one guitar.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
I owned it for over a year now and tried a few types of strings on it. For me 10's or 11's work great. Sound is anything you want and I have used it for a year on many gigs as my only guitar. It never let me down and yes, it's that good. No kidding and I was the world's biggest skeptic on Squire guitars. I have come to the conclusion they are the best bang for the buck out there. I have tried the '52 Tele and this sounds exactly like it and the neck feels better.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
If you want a telecaster sound and a great playing guitar then this should be your first and last stop. I own sixteen guitars and this has become my favorite.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
Neck is smooth, great for finger picking, frets are finished better than many more expensive models and it's simple to adjust and easy to play and use. Take it from me once you play this one even though it doesn't cost an arm and a leg you will fall in love.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
You can go from crisp tele sound to almost a jazz sound with no effort. Pickups are bright and mellow at the same time in neck position and can cut through any combo of instruments when you play in a band. If you want to stand out and be heard this is your baby. I promise you, you won't be disappointed with this guitar. It's that good!
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Finish is absolutely beautiful and after a year the wood-grain stands out incredibly well. I had a fellow musician staring at the guitar close up and he fell in love with it. Neck feels great and it's fast.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
Action out of the box was too low but a couple of turns on the bridge and it's perfect. I'm not big on doing setups I have a luthier who does them but this one is easy as pie to adjust and once you do it's perfect and stays that way. You absolutely have to buy this guitar if you want a tele. Spending a ton of money with this around is foolish.
