Squier Classic Vibe 50s Stratocaster Electric Guitar

No longer available at zZounds
The '50s spirit is revived in this Squier Classic Vibe Strat. Period-correct finishes capture the decade's look, and Alnico III pickups provide its sound.

Looking for that classic 50s-era Fender tone and vibe? Look no further than the Classic Vibe 50s Stratocaster from Squier. Its period-correct finish adorns an alder body, matched perfectly to its vintage-tint maple neck and fingerboard. A set of customer AlNiCo III single-coil pickups provides that familiar clear, bright tone with excellent sustain even at high gain. String-to-string balance is improved by custom staggered pole pieces.

This is definately a keeper, I would replace it if stolen. I am now thinking of picking up the 60's vibe, if it is anything like this one it will be great.
Sound
Vintage Strat sound, sounds great. Pickups are really quite for single coils, sounds great unplugged also.
Features
Typical Strat features.
Quality
This guitar is absolutely amazing for the money,very nice neck, fret work is flawless, everything fits well. Finish is great also I have not found a single flaw and this was suppose to be a blemished guitar.
Value
Don't let the Squire brand fool you, I own several Strats,(Mexicans, USA, Japan and some older Squires)this guitar will play with any of them. Well worth the price.

The Wow Factor
The two tone sunburst looks really good with the maple neck.
