Hi all,
I'm new to the forum and thought I would post up the first Squier I've purchased recently. I've always played metal but recently have started to get into playing more mellow music so wanted something that would suit that better then what I was already using. As far as I can tell this is a 1996 Squier Affinity (someone can correct me if I'm wrong). 22 frets not 21 like some other models. I purchased it online and to be honest I am really surprised at how good it sounds and how well it plays. My only real complaint would be that the tuners don't feel that great so will probably update those at a later date. Another thing that surprised me was how heavy the guitar feels, I tried another Squier recently in store and it was very light compared to what I have here, this is almost as heavy as my home built mahogany Explorer. It didn't come with a tremolo arm so will have to figure out the size I need.
Anyway here's a few pics, if anyone has any further info on these I'm all ears.
