Love this guitar

I've played acoustic guitars most of my life. My old hummingbird developed some serious issues so I started looking for something else. My hands go numb so I wrestled with another acoustic or electric. I went with the Squier affinity series. I'm very glad I did. The action is very smooth and easy. My whole experience with Sweetwater has been amazing. Cole is topnotch. Thanks

Unsure at first.

This strat had something on the frets. Stretch a string and it felt like sandpaper. So on each fret i stretched and grinded strings.a brownish dust came off. Immediately better!!!. New 10s. Plays great. Love it.

Rated 4/5

So far, SO good

This is the second new series Affinity that I've bought. Both needed the fret ends filed. Other than that, with new strings and a proper setup, they're actually better than I'd hoped! So much so that, in addition to the HSS and SSS Strats, I just bought a Tele! Waiting for delivery and hoping it's just as nice.
