The Squier Contemporary Series has been expanded
New models added to the range
Revamped back in 2021, the Squier Contemporary Series has now been expanded further with a smattering of new guitar and bass models. Let’s take a closer look at what’s on offer.
Squier Contemporary Series
The Squier brand has always been a great way of getting a very reasonable quality guitar for a lot less money than a US or Mexican/Japanese built Fender. These Contemporary models offer some enhancements over the standard models, but still come in at a relatively affordable price point.

Contemporary Features
Modern-voiced Squier SQR pickups power all the models in the range. They also feature roasted maple necks, along with sculpted neck heels for better upper fret access. And, finally, painted headstocks with chrome Squier logos, where appropriate. The bass models get an active 9-volt preamp with controls for volume, blend, tone and bass/treble boost. All nice little tweaks to the formula and enough to set them apart from the regular Squier models currently on offer.
