I bought my husband a standard Stratocaster several years ago to get him to quit playing 'air guitar', but he's left handed, so I haven't tried to play it. I decided I should just go ahead and get a little electric guitar for my fifty-three year old arthritic hands.The Squire Mini is perfect for a lady who has average to small hands, and it is as easy to play as my acoustic parlor guitars with 11 gage Silk and Steel strings.I bought it recently, used, as it was offered at a ridiculously low price. The owner had bought it for a travel guitar, but had large hands. He demonstrated it for me. I did hear a buzz or two, but when I play it, it actually sounds sweet, and no buzz.It may work better for me because my hands are smaller, or my touch lighter, but I'm sure that when I get it set up, any issues will be dealt with. I've had guitars professionally set up before, and it is a small expense that results in a better than new guitar, even when the guitar IS new.I tried to get more into guitar for years, but never got anywhere until I learned to get the right size guitar for my hands, the right strings for the guitar, and a good luthier to set it up. I now have the enthusiasm to learn more chords, and I look forward to practicing, rather than dread it.I'd encourage anyone with small hands, or who has a child who'd like to play electric guitar to try a Squire Mini. Don't buy it for a travel guitar UNTIL you've tested your hands on a small guitar. It might be just the thing for you. If not, then you can look for one of the travel guitars with full scale size, and the various small bodies, or the models that are 'headless'.It's a nice little guitar, light, easy to play, and cute as a button. Okay, I guess I just drove off all the young guys, screaming they don't want to have anything to do with Squire Mini's, 'cause an old lady says they're CUTE! Feel free to edit that out!

I bought this guitar as my first electric guitar when I was about 12. I bought it because it was cheap. but if you are a beginner buying a guitar. Save some more money and get a something else. A good beginner guitar that you could buy is any epiphone and they have a lot of cheap guitars that are decent for beginners. The first week that I had this guitar it went to hell. It wouldnt stay in tune, the neck began to bow, and every time I would fix it it would just bend back. Also, the pickups couldnt get any worse. All that would come out was static. It would take about a week to tune it and in 5 min. it was back out of tune. I still have the guitar but its got dents all over from me getting mad at it and bouncing it off the floor. I would not get this guitar!!! I highly recommend saving some more money and buying something worth your money.

Comments about Squier Mini Strat Electric Guitar:
I took the guitar out of the box tuned it up and away I went. the setup and action on strings are wonderful. The reviews are what sold me to give the product a try. I teach guitar and this is a great starter guitar for anyone. I had a hard time putting it down. I have a bad back and full size guitars can be a real struggle to to hold them up. But this guitar is really light. I will reconmend this guitar again and again.

Comments about Squier Mini Strat Electric Guitar:
I had one of these as a travel guitar for a while instead of my Hoener (which I hated because of its poor balance). The action and feel was really nice but the pickups are a bit weak. Sound good through a small headphone amp but very weedy on my Marshal Amp. Only real limitation was that since its fretboard is a different length to regular guitars its not very good for learning how to play full size...
Comments about Squier Mini Strat Electric Guitar:
If you buy this guitar for your child you will not be sorry.This kind of quality only comes with a high class guitar for a not so high price.
This guitar works quite well. I like the tone dial how it easilly can change from jazzy smoothness to a punk feel. My son is only starting to grow out of it at twelve and it lasted for quite a while.
The quality was outstanding. Just as I expected fom a Fender.
For the price this guitar was a steal
Comments about Squier Mini Strat Electric Guitar:
I'm a guitar teacher and have found if the kid is small enough to need this size of a guitar, they probably don't have the where-with-all to play it. A 5-6-7 year old hasn't got the motor skills yet to really play guitar. That sets in when they're at least 8 or 9 and by that time, they've probably gotten big enough for a real Strat. As for an adult playing this, forget about it, it's a toy in larger hands.
It's a mini Strat with everything the bigger ones have except a whammy-probably a good thing.
It's an inexpensive guitar but the manufacturing quality is acceptable. The fret ends aren't sharp, it's not the best build ever-but it's OK. The neck needs a bit of 600 grit sandpaper to smooth it out-once you do that, it's fine.
Good value-but I question the usefulness.
Comments about Squier Mini Strat Electric Guitar:
have this small strat for several months now, quite happy with it, my other guitars are American Standar Strat, Les Paul gold top and Ibanez RG560.
bought this guitar intended to be a travel guitar but it is a bit too long for that, I put in two dimazio PUs, replace all the electronics and chang the control layout, now it is the hottest mini start in the world
having a shoter scale length make the tension a bit lower and very easy to play, the neck is nice and the fingerboard is of acceptable quality, the fingerboard width at the body is about the same as the full size strat but the width at the nut is much narrower, remember it is intended to be for children and young people, adult players with large fingers could have a hard time around fret 1-5, oh and it is light on shoulder but still maintains good body balance on shoulder strap
Comments about Squier Mini Strat Electric Guitar:
I bought this for my young grand-son to learn to play. Excellent action, comfortable neck profile.
Playing through my Mesa bass amp it sounded much better than I expected!!
Great selection of sounds/ tone with the 5 position pickup selector switch.
Great looking little guitar!
Feels well built, comfortable and extremely playable.
I was very impressed with the overall build quality for the $$.
Comments about Squier Mini Strat Electric Guitar:
An excellent guitar but my youngster wanted to keep adjusting knobs and selecting between pickups rather than practice. You won't find sound and playability at this price and do recommend it if your wanting to buy this guitar.
This is a beginners guitar and has way more than a beginner needs.
Right out of the box it is an excellent playing guitar, although I would recommend putting new strings on it.
In today's market you get what you pay for. With this guitar you get more.
Comments about Squier Mini Strat Electric Guitar:
Great great great guitar for my 8 year old daugher to learn why I do what I've been doing for the past 24 years.
Honestly can't say one bad thing about this guitar.
Well made, nice setup for a beginner out of the box, and easy to fine tune for anyone who's ever taken the time to set up their own guitar.
Find a better made beginner guitar at a better price and prove me wrong. There isn't one.
