SQUIER CONTEMPORARY SERIES

They’re well into old age, but the Strat, Tele and Jag are still surprising us with the ability to refresh with every passing year, and the latest Contemporary range is a case in point.

All the models feature modern-voiced Squier SQR pickups, roasted maple necks, sculpted neck heels, along with painted headstocks. While the Strat Special and

Special HT (£379) offer three single-coil pickups, the HH FR (£369) model brings a pair of FSQR Atomic humbuckers, coil-taps and a Floyd Rose trem. The Tele model (£379) offers a pair of humbuckers too but we’re most excited for the Shoreline Gold Jaguar HH ST (£369) with coil-taps plus series/parallel switching on the upper control plate.
