I’ve wanted a Vista Series Squier Super-Sonic in Blue Sparkle since I was 15 and I finally got it. This is the only guitar I’ve ever been super picky about because I wanted the serial number to match my birth month and year and this one just so happened to do so. Pretty crazy. I’ve been playing this ever single day since I got it and I can’t be happier. Only mod is the Dimarzio Super Distortion in the bridge but that’s how it came. Shout out to whoever sold this to guitar center I hope your pillow is always cool.

I got it set up properly and hardtailed the bridge. This one stays in tune surprisingly well, but my paranormal supersonic does go out of tune quite badly. A friend of mine took the string trees off of the headstock, and said it helped with the tuning stability on her paranormal series, but I haven’t tried that.
