Product Information

Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered But getting the Squier Mini as a travel guitar for instance, or just a 2nd practice guitar makes a lot of sense to me. Rewind to January and the Winter NAMM show, which seems like a lifetime ago now! One of the coolest(and fun) product announcements I saw was from Squier, introducing another classic shape to their 'mini' series, with my beloved Jazzmaster! I was incredibly keen to see these hit UK shores as our young son loves to strum the guitars in the house. Needless to say though, he finds it incredibly difficult to sit with the full sized counterparts, so I have been on the lookout for a 'mini' 3/4 or 1/2 sized guitar for him to have a go with. Inspiring a young person to want to play an instrument is such an important thing to me, and I must say, Miles has known many guitar-savvy words from a very early age, 'Jazzmaster' being one of them, so this little mini version was the perfect fit!

Please note, the photos are all after my little bit of modding, if you're wondering why it looks different to the standard model. It produces little-punch, light, and bright toning, with clarity of sound being among its greatest characteristics. For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs. If you’ve observed musicians and guitarists performing for a while, these controls will be easier for you to master. This mini guitar’s strings remain in tune for long such that children can play for days on end without any intonation issues courtesy of its hardtail bridge that offers a great sustain. The Mini Strat comes with Fender USA, NPS, .009-.042 strings. These are OK for beginners, you can upgrade to higher quality ones when you need to change strings in a few months.The Squier Bullet Series is a size-up to this range with all the same features and a variety of guitars to choose from. For decades now, Squier guitars have been the affordable choice for guitarists seeking a familiar and well playing instrument. The line features budget friendly versions of many classic Fender designs such as the Stratocaster, Telecaster, Jaguar, Jazzmaster, Mustangand more. Squier electric guitars are a familiar presence to millions of guitarists and are often the first electric guitar of many. A mom who bought the guitar as a birthday present for her daughter who has played acoustic for 3 years said that the Mini Strat was a huge hit, her daughter loves it. An electric guitar is a great place to start if you're learning because of its amp and effects options. The ability to plug into an amp, switch up your sound and experiment is beneficial to finding your style. The design of these guitars contributes to your comfort while playing, having a contoured body with light strings that won’t hurt your fingers as much as an acoustic. Its size is well-suited for those with smaller hands or for children, making it a lot easier to play.

Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided. Bridge string spacing and bridge baseplate size is relatively standard, with a 52mm string spacing and a bridge baseplate measuring 78mm x 42mm. It's also top loading, so no real worry of finding a through body bridge with the matching ferrule spacing. What makes the Squier Mini Series such a steal for beginners is how it combines a reliable brand with cost-effective options, while still having quality sound and design. The guitar’s hardware design and finish are quite sturdy and reliable in my opinion. All in all, the guitar looks and feels durable, which is a must for children who tend to bang their guitars. Impeccable Fit for Tiny HandsThe Squier Mini provides you with all the iconic design features of the Stratocaster family. One of the first guitars widely available and used by countless artists including Jimi Hendrix - one of the most influential guitarists of all time. I used my 6-year old son as an excuse to justify buying it. No regrets. Video review of the Squier Mini Strat Naturally, you wouldn’t play the Squier Mini at a gig. I mean you could with the right amp and effects, but it would look a bit silly. However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
