Squier '51 Appreciation Thread

Post by Bacchus »

I remember when everyone had these back in the day.

I've just spent an hour so playing mine. It's completely stock still. It cost me £90 because they were blowing them out back in .... 2006 ish? Still one of the best guitars I own.

Who still hast theirs?

I traded a 4track to Aen for his 51 neck. It's on my squier esquier that I play probably more than any of my other guitars

They are great guitars. I got mine when they were blown out on sale. The neck is something special. I modified mine a little.

I'm a fan of any affordable production model with a big neck and back in the day I was a Radiohead fan so I always wanted to get one of these and stele Plus it with a lace red dually in the bridge and a blue in the neck
