Jono Bolton Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Well, not an NGD today, but on Wednesday I took delivery of a Squier Classic Vibe 60s Stratocaster. I got it on sale from Dawsons at a time when FMIC have put up all the prices of all their Squiers, so it worked out at nearly £100 less than the standard CVs, so I can't be too displeased with that! It's a Factory Special Run in Lake Placid Blue with matching headstock, IMO a nicer colour than the standard range. First impressions are that it's very well put together as my CV Tele and Matt Freeman Precision are. Needed a bit of adjustment as the action was quite high out of the box, and the strings will need to be changed as I'm not a fan of 9s but the fit and finish is top quality. As always, this thread is worthless without pics, so here they are; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 The CV series are really good quality guitars (where were they when I first started out?), my CV 50s Tele is marvellous, with the pickups performing way beyond their price point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Mariner Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Congrats. I always fancied the gold 60s strat, but we already have 3 strats here, and that's enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
