Sumptuous single-coils

There are three of them so you can be sure to have exceptional sound, one that encompasses sparkling clarity and brilliant bite. Prepare for a powerful, articulate tone and deliver your best performance yet. Better still, Squier have employed a "special" configuration for this guitar, meaning the middle pickup sits closer to the bridge for a unique array of settings - all dynamic and all superbly responsive.

Incredible tuning stability

The sky's the limit when you have a 2-Point Synchronised Tremolo bridge to add shimmering, warbling vibrato to your sound. With minimal friction and two pivot points, this bridge will grant you superbly sturdy and reliable tuning, it begs any dynamic pitch bend. And with solid string block saddles, the design is truly vintage and offers enhanced sustain.

The wonders of roasted maple

...come in abundance on the Contemporary Stratocaster Special. Used for both the neck and fretboard, this tremendous tonewood has undergone a roasting process (also known as baking) to remove any moisture and impurities. The result? An exceptionally sturdy wood that begs your fierce playing. Typically seen on high end instruments, roasted maple is resilient to temperature changes, so you won't be greeted by drastically different tunings when you pick up your guitar. And its tonal capabilities are magical too. Experience wondrous clarity, incredible volume, and minimal feedback. The beautifully smooth satin finish and sculpted heel design then allow you to fret effortlessly - reach those top frets without anything slowing you down.
