Squier Affinity Mini Strat Electric Guitar (Rosewood)
22.75 in. scale. 20 frets. Master volume and tone controls.
"The Little Guitar that Can!"
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Feature:The Mini is s straight-up, no frills axe. Hardtail, three cheap single-coils. And a whole lot of portability.
Quality:
Again, quality must be viewed in the context of cheap guitars. In addition to some real guitars of substantial cost and performance potential, I also own a Lotus "Strat knock-off" that was made somewhere "East of Eden". I've now equipped the Lotus with a full set of Seymour-Duncans...but it still leaves a little something to be desired. The Squier Mini displays much better workmanship: a more nicely finished neck, parts that actually fit the space they're bolted onto, etc. I think I'll be transferring the Seymour Duncans from the Lotus to the Mini in the near future and then giving the Lotus to some deserving kid in the neighborhood to practice chords with.
Value:
An excellent travel guitar for $99. This is an outrageously cool value!
Desirability:
What could be more sexy than the "Mini Me" of guitars. Plug it in and kick out the jams.
Sound:
The sound must be considered in the context of "travel guitars". It sounds almost like a "real" Strat, but packs much more easily!
Support:
When you do your own tech work, who needs support?
Overall:
Given the niche it fills in my collection, I suspect the Mini will remain there until I move on to other gigs and someone inherits it (laughter of the Immortals).
"Perfect for the beginner child or smaller stature lady."
Feature:
No wammy bar but who cares this has 3 single coils and 3 way switching with separate volume and tone. Not bad at all.
Quality:
looks pretty BAD A** probably could use some new strings when you get it home but all in all it is a great guitar.
Value:
great AX for the money!!
Sound:
I pluged this beast of a beginner Ax into two different amps. 1st was a 15 watt Fender and I got a little buzzing I chaged cables and the buzz went away. it sounded pretty good. 2nd amp was a Marshal 10 watt and I was blown away with how this guitar sounded it was as good as my Fender Strat.
Ease of Use:
Pretty easy to pick up and rock!!!
Support:
have not had to use support yet
Overall:
My child will get years of good use from this 3/4 size Rockin' a** Guitar. I can't believe how well it plays the action is great and it sounds awesome.

"For $100 this is a steal!!!"
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Feature:has all the features of a regular strat.
Quality:
Hey it is a $100 guitar for goodness sake! So don't expect a high quality instrument or you will be disappointed. But for $100 this is a great freaking guitar. Perfect for kids or beginners with smaller fingers.
Value:
For $100 you cannot miss with this guitar
Desirability:
This guitar looks like a real strat and actually is a real strat, just smaller.
Sound:
I have not played it through an amp.
Ease of Use:
guitar is easy to play after you get used to the smaller frett spacing and the strings are a little closer together. This guitar is really made for smaller hands, i.e. children, but it is not a toy. So if you have big fingers you may have trouble playing this guitar. For adults, this is a good guitar to fool around with watching tv, sitting at your desk at work, or riding in a car. Don't buy this to be your main rig unless you are a child or a beginner.
Support:
ZZ is always there for you.
Overall:
I am a stock trader and sit at my desk during the day watching the market and playing this guitar (stress reliever). I don't have to worry about banging it on the desk or someone stealing it. I play it without an amp and it sounds OK by itself.
""little guitars""
Feature:
Standard strat pickup selection switch. I really like that configuration
Quality:
It feels pretty good, but obviously not as good as other standard strats.
Value:
$100 - the price is right
Desirability:
I can almost see myself jamming that guitar at a show :)
Sound:
The tone sounds pretty big! The guitar plays very well, and I can see it being a great starter guitar for little guys. I end up bending strings way to far (as I have been playing for 16 years), but would work out great for kids and beginners.
Support:
Haven't had to use support.
Overall:
I'm recommending this guitar to my brother-in-law (he's just a kid) because of the way it sounded and played. A nice amp would make all the difference.

"Ain't no toy!!!"
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Feature:3 pickups (very nice output, crystal clean), nice switch, good intonation at each positions. Great finish, I can't believe it cost $99.
Quality:
Beautiful finish - nothing to complain about at this price.
Value:
No competition there.
Desirability:
I am thinking of getting one for myself now!
Sound:
This guitar is great! I bought it for my 5 yer old - and being a Gibson guy and all - ... well, I can't stop playing it! It stays in tune pretty well - need to tune it often but that's what you got to do anyway, especially if you want to train their little ears. Man, I wanted something to get the Fender type of sound (I like humbucker better), and I just found an inexpensive way to get just that - I will use it in the studio. Pickup are screaming... bit too bright though
Support:
Never used - but I doubt you need to - it is just to fun to play!
Overall:
This is a great starting guitar for little fingers - I wish I had that guitar 15 years ago. I would play better now!
"Great travel guitar or guitar for shorter people (like me)."
Overall:
Was looking for a smaller electric that would be easier on my back (have a full-size you could anchor a boat with) and easier to travel with. This guitar is no toy, unlike many other mini electrics you see for sale. Easy to play once you adjust to the shorter scale, sounds nice.

"vey nice guitar"
"It's awsome"
"a great traveling guitar"
this seems to be a pretty good guitar, from what i have seen of it. because it is a mini, the lightness of it makes it feel cheap, but it has good tone and good playability.
