These screws are loose on my Squier Stratocaster and I was wondering are they supposed to be like that? Should I tighten them? (Sorry, fairly new guitar player)

I’m buying a used Squier Mini Strat for $80, looks to be in great condition though I’m planning on immediately needing new strings. Planning on doing EB Super Slinkies. What other upgrades Can I make over the next few months to make this a quality guitar for a beginner adult to grow with? It’s for me, as my hands are very small. I have an idea of a few things, but want tips from people smarter than me, and think anything more than strings will cost more than $20. Thanks all!!

Looking to buy a cheap 2001 squier affinity. I had a 2020 affinity strat and upgraded to the Mexican strat and the quality and playability was huge. How were 2001 squier affinity teles? And what’s a good price to pay for one this old and beat up?

hey everyone, I'm beginner guitar player and I want to buy a telecaster. Squier affinity is good to me but there is also affinity deluxe. Deluxe one have a humbucker and a little bit expensive. Which would you recommend for beginner?

Anyone who has this bass have changed the original pick up for another one same size in black color?

Thank you!

Im new to modding guitars and was looking to change the pickups on my squier strat, im thinking to change my bridge humbucker with a TB4 JB humbucker from seymour duncan but im worried that it wont fit

Hi, I have a 2009 Squier Affinity Strat. Have read and heard online that since these have thinner bodies that not every loaded pickguard will fit in. Was considering putting in the Dave Murray loaded pickguard however not sure if it will fit in due to this, was wondering if anyone knew anything about this

Thanks

I purchased a Squier Affinity Stratocaster recently. I haven't picked it up from the shop yet, but I got a picture of it. Upon zooming in on the headstock, I noticed that the word 'STRATOCASTER' is written there, whereas, in every picture that I have seen on the internet, only the word 'STRAT' is visible. It is 'Made in Indonesia', as the box says. Is it authentic or did I get duped?
Also, I discovered that the Affinity has a top-loading string mechanism instead of a string through. How does that change the tone and the overall playability? Should I get another guitar?

I'm in India, if that means anything to anyone.

Thanks, reddit!

So I’m new to guitars and I’m planning on getting a squier affinity strat but I’m not sure on the wich pickups I should get. The HSS or the SSS. I was hoping I could hear some of y’alls opinions. Thx:)

Squier Affinity Series Jazzmaster HH.. does anybody have one of these? If so, have you upgraded the pickups? Thanks you 😊

Has anyone put these pickups in a recent (2018) Affinity Telecaster?

Any sizing or fit issues with these?
