Affinity Stratocaster HSS Electric Guitar
The Stratocaster electric guitar included in the set comes from the hugely successful Squier Affinity series and offers the sound and feel of the legendary Fender model. The instrument in beautiful Charcoal Frost Metallic Finish features a maple neck with an extremely comfortable C-neck profile, while a bridge humbucker and two single coil pickups deliver powerful and versatile basic sounds. The three pickups are controlled by a 5-way pickup selector, a common volume knob and two tone knobs that filter out harsh highs when needed.
The Affinity Series Stratocaster electric guitar in chic Charcoal Frost Metallic features a flexible pickup setup, a modern 2-point tremolo and a comfortable-playing maple neck.
Fender Frontman 15G Amplifier
To transform the sound of the Affinity Stratocaster, a Fender Frontman 15G combo amp is on board the Squier Affinity Series Stratocaster HSS Pack RW Charcoal Frost Metallic. Featuring a classic Fender design, the guitar amp offers an undistorted clean channel and a switchable drive channel that adds that famous amount of distortion to the Stratocaster's sound. To fine-tune the sound, you can also use the 3-band equalizer to adjust the bass, midrange and treble.
If you want to practice silently or record your first tracks, you can easily use the amplifier's headphone jack. As soon as a pair of headphones is connected, the internal speaker is automatically muted and the sound of the Frontman 15G is exclusively output via the headphones.
Strap, cable and picks
Of course, the most important accessories should not be missing in a successful starter package! The set includes an instrument cable for connecting the amplifier and electric guitar, a guitar strap with the Fender logo and three classic picks. In addition, each pack contains an access code for the three-month free subscription to the innovative learning platform Fender Play, which teaches you the most popular songs of pop, rock, blues and many more in a step-by-step and clear manner.

Squier Affinity Series Stratocaster HSS Pack LRL Charcoal Frost Metallic
As part of my mid-life crisis I decided it was about time to learn an instrument and I decried a guitar was a good idea as I don't have room for a piano. After some research I decided on the Squier Affintiy as being about the best for what I was willing to pay for a starter set. I've only had a quick play with it so far, but it seems all the reviews I read/watched were correct, overall it appears a very nice instrument and I look forward to learning to play it. The only negative I found was that the amp power lead came with a European 2 pin plug, something that was not mentioned on the website, so I now have to buy an adapter before I can use it.
Just learning so everything is new to me but the guitar has a great sound and I got it at a fantastic price. Delivery was super fast and everything was really well packed. I will definitely upgrade with MusicStore when the time comes.
