zZounds Gear Experts Say...

The Squier Vintage Modified Tele Custom II is a well-made tribute. With the '72 pickguard and Duncan P-90s, the Vintage Modified Tele Custom rocks.

Overview

The Custom II is a super-affordable temple of tone with some tasty Tele tweaks that include a pair of blistering Duncan Designed P-90s with indepedendent tone and volume controls. The agathis body snugs up to an all-maple neck/fretboard with dot inlays, medium-jumbo frets, and a 25-1/2 in. scale.

This guitar is high quality for the price, don't let the Squier name scare you off.

Sound

Got the Custom II for Christmas and love the sound of the P 90s. Bright on the bright pup and clean and sweet sounding on the neck pup. Very versitle in the middle with the two tone and volume controls.

Features

Two tone and volume controls, 3-way switch. Quality tuners and the 500k pots and swtich seems very good for the price. The love the look and the poly finish looks awesome. The pick guard is quality made 3 ply and looks good in my book.

Ease of Use

Simple as any 2 pups guitar

Quality

As I've said great quality for a $250 guitar..the only negative is the finsh on the neck is a little different than I expected, but not bad. The frets are great and neck is perfectly straight. The action was perfect from the box just some slight intonation adjustment needed.

Value

This guitar should be at least $500.

Manufacturer Support

Have needed to...to me that says volumes to the quality of the product.

The Wow Factor

I read alot of reviews because I want a LP style guitar to go with my HWY 1 Tele..but decided on this with the 2 P 90 pups and don't regret it at all. This guiatr is even louder and screams!
