canīt understand you! if i compare a standard american fender strat and rate it with lets saz 8,5 cause itīs not a perfect guitar but a real good one i think, how can you rate a bullet strat the same? in comparation i would give it a 1,8 i think, and this onlz because there are behringer strats and cheap imitations...

i think players who did these ratings never ever before held a original fender strat in their hands... i played both, a bullet, an standard strat by squier, a malmsteen strat by fender, a deluxe strat and a standard strat... and well... you canīt compare these guitars... you canīt compare a behringer gmx110 to a mesa boogie dual rectifier... itīs impossible...

and i think these ratings wonīt help any beginner... sorry



by the way... iīm not saying, buy a fender strat for 1500 bucks to begin guitar playing

The Squier Strats I tried out at Guitar Center suck tone and wiring wise, but the finish is quite good and I also tried an American Strat, 2 Mex-Strats, and a Highway one that day... The American and Highway 1 both sound awesome, although the hwy1 has a slightly country tone into it and the US has an awesome clean tone and this nice fuzzy tone into it, I tried an FSR strat and it sounds pretty sweet but the tone knobs are quite badly soldered (or I just tried a bad one) maybe a pro wiring job and custom shop pickups would do it good. I tried the standard mex and well it's similar to the FSR with more crunch.

Essentially what we're seeing from the varied reviews is that some of these guitars were properly setup and well constructed, some were well constructed but never setup right, and some were poorly put together in the first place. THIS is the real key to the Squier... You have to pick and choose from several to find a good one, and have it set up properly by someone who knows what they're doing (not your buddy who says "hell, it looks easy enough... let ME do it") As for how you could rate a Bullet in the same range as an American Standard... I believe "bang-for-the-buck" is being taken into account! As for me, I've already chosen a new Bullet as the 99-dollar starting point for the "Franken-caster" I'm putting together. Among other things, I'm replacing the 3 stock Fender Single Coils with single-coil P-90 Soapbars (like you see in a Les Paul Gold-Top or Epiphone Casino like the Beatles all used), dressing the frets on the already-pretty-good neck, shielding the control/pickup cavity with foil tape to lessen the ever-present single-coil hum, and "vintage-ing" the finish with a sander. All of this will cost me around another hundred bucks... meaning for around 2-bills, I'll have a very unique, very playable, thick-sounding tone-beast that will be the envy of my friends and enemies! I've built this kind of custom guitar before and I always end up having to sell it because someone falls in love and offers me about 4 times what I paid to build it!!

Most beginning guitarists probably won't have that kind of money, and when you can't afford a standard or deluxe strat, in price comparison, the bullet is the right choice. By the way, I have played a standard strat, it is much better, but it's not worth the money at first, because you may discover that you don't like playing guitar.

The electronics to not have the professional 'punch' of the real Fender pups. The body is very light, I like that for practicing around home. At least the one I have I'd rate as a GREAT beginner or practice guitar. It looks decent too (dark blue, like the photo above).

The whole reason I got this was because it had a whammy bar, but I might go back and ask about it.
Bought mine at guitarcenter

I noticed that buzz sound on the pickups, I thought it was me messing the strings, but apparantly not.
Pretty annoying, but I get used to it.

Mines yellow/white-ish haha.

I plugged it in tuned it up and it was sounding good. Stayed in tune and I am really hard on them. Neck was nice. I mean it's a nice little guitar. A bit light but this is one for the streets of Nashville.

Also, it has a stop tail piece which is helpful. At this range I would be afraid to get a whammy albeit there are exceptions. I picked up a new Kramer Focus w/ a whammy at best Buy for 80 bucks as a joke. The joke is on them I guess as it is an awesome guitar! Go figure. I had to file the ends of the frets to round them off but that's it.

That was suppose to be my Nashville beat around guitar but it's too nice to beat up! I'd use it live in a heartbeat. This Bullet I'll have to wait until I get it home and beat on it.

Bottom line is you can find good cheap guitars if you look. Plus you need to know what to look for. That's the big thing. You might find ten pieces of junk and then a good one slides through.

For 50 bucks I can't buy the parts to put a start together! Same goes for the Kramer Focus. $80 with a whammy that stays in tune? THAT is rare!

MG30's do sound good, but they're practice amps. They only sound shitty at high volumes, and TBH if you're cranking your practice amp to 10 you're a noob.

And 1 year of playing shows he's probably not a massive gear guru. Beginners will play what ever they can get their hands on as long as it fits them.

10 means perfect normally, and on UG it at least means very very good.

It suits any kind of playing really and I mostly use it for hard/punk rock and some quieter rock music. I'm using it with a Marshall MG30 amp and together they sound like a dream.

sounds like a nightmare

er... train ur ears, i have never heard some1 say that amp rules be4, the MG series suck so badly, it only has 1 kind of sound wich sucks, to my (and most other opinion).

Maybe he meant that it sounded like a bad dream. Fact is, this is a beginner guitar - and there's nothing wrong with that. If you're a beginner, buy it, use it, play it. After you gain experience and money, you'll want something better. And that goes for the MG30, too.

Everybody gotta start somewhere...

i ****ing hate this guitar.. cant handle distortion, cant play metal. the only thing this is moderate for would be cleans or blues.

You're quite the detective.

Also, you can play metal on a strat, you probably just put the gain on HURR DURR 10 FULL METULZ POWAR. Don't do that. Learn to EQ, etc.

My previous experiences with Squier Strats were good but at all costs never buy a Bullet without checking it tunes up properly first, preferably with a tuner if you don't have a very good ear for pitch!

my conclusion; this guitar is great when you know a bit about guitar, and you are fine with managing some problems. Its a great guitar for beginners as well and plays a lot better than some 2000 dollar Fenders i have played. But if you want a great guitar that without further adjustment can be played out of the box, i would look at the higher priced affinity series.

I'm going to get one to! is $200 to much?

Way too much. Throw an extra 50 bucks and get a regular scaled squier.

I have the bullet strat as my backup guitar. I got it as a gift that I wanted to customize. This guitar is a crappy beginning 100 buck guitar and that is literally all it's good for. The reviews that say this guitar "plays like a dream" obviously don't play anything else on a consistant basis, or have a good amp that would show it's flaws. It is OK and a decent backup. But for the love of god, don't play this thing on a stage, and DON'T try to customize it. I tried and got so many headaches.

Gosh, people are stupid... Everyone saying "It cannot play metal!" "American ones are better" "Its rating is better than my $400000 solid-gold PRS PrivaStock with superconductors for wires and finished with elephant's blood!" Mine works great for metal, so either your bullet is worse than mine, your amp stinks or VOX DA5 is REALLY Awesome. I have played some American strats and strangely... I prefer my bullet over SOME of them. (Probably because of the neck...) Also, at least for me The main factor of these scorings is the Price-Quality ratio. If this thing costed $5 It would be all-10 on the less picky reviewers.

I have a bullet strat witha solid maple neck and maple fingerboard. I will be completely honest, i play through a G-DEC, and it sounds ****ing amazing
