Squier Bullet Telecaster, Laurel, Brown Sunburst Overview
Squier Bullet Series
The Squier Bullet collection is one of their most cost-effective series of guitars, offering classic Fender designs at an affordable price. It’s a great range for beginners to start learning guitar on models that are stylish and affordable, and you can’t find a better place to start than with the Squier Bullet series of iconic Stratocasters, Telecasters, and Mustangs.
The variety in this collection makes it easy for new starters to find a guitar that suits them. The Squier Bullet Stratocaster is a versatile guitar that lets you play in a variety of styles with its three single-coil pickups. The Squier Bullet Telecaster also has single-coil pickups and is especially suited to fans of indie and country music. The Squier Bullet Mustang has thick-sounding dual humbuckers which make it ideal for playing heavy rock as they’re better for overdrive and distortion. These are all available in a variety of bold, classic colours to suit your style.
The Squier Bullet Telecaster is a great starter guitar available in Black, or Brown Sunburst - both classic finishes. This model has a lightweight poplar body, and easy to play ‘C’-shaped maple neck, making it easy for beginners to learn.
There’s also Telecaster dual single-coil pickups with three-way switching, a hardtail six-saddle bridge for tuning stability, Indian laurel fretboard with 22 frets, and chrome hardware which all comes together to give you the classic Fender style and sound for a fraction of the price.
In all, this is a great choice for beginners who want to dip their toes into the world of guitars without making a huge commitment cost-wise.
Available in Black and Brown Sunburst.
What’s the difference between this and other brand guitars?
The Squier brand is the entry-level for the brand Fender, possibly the most iconic electric guitar brand in the world. The Telecaster shape is available from Fender from entry-level all the way up to collector level and is the choice of many a professional and guitar heroes alike.
If you want to upgrade, consider the Squier Affinity series, which uses an alder body and higher quality pickups. It’s still an entry-level guitar that’s good for beginners, just a slightly higher price point.
