SUCK!!!!
The D string just sound's absolutely terrible. Also, i'll NEVER buy another guitar that doesen't have humbucker's.
Anything i can do to make it sound better?
With this guitar. I'd only be playing rhythm, can i get by with it?
Squier Stratocaster's.

Re: Squier Stratocaster's.
get new fucking strings
All that I need is time for me to breathe. Dream little dreams that only I believe. Now that I see beyond the light, I'm gonna be, I'll be alright.

Re: Squier Stratocaster's.
Fender Squier are like the cheap low-range guitars, you shouldn't expect it to sound amazing. I have a real Fender Stratocaster and I like the sound of it but I do prefer my Telecaster.
And also changing the strings won't affect the sound too much.

Re: Squier Stratocaster's.
You'd have to change your pickups and maybe get a distortion pedal or amp modeler if you want to make a difference in sound. Although I wouldn't put a lot of effort into trying to get your Strat to sound amazing unless you plan on using it as your main guitar for a long time.

It'll do a little bit, like if you were to change gauges.mikey41 wrote:changing the strings doesn't do anything
But yeah, in the bigger picture the stings alone won't dramatically improve your tone.

if hes looking into recording than he knows how to play. just because someone doesn't know every single thing about guitars doesn't mean hes not a good guitarist

Re: Squier Stratocaster's.
i recommend going into guitar center and trading that one in for a used guitar. you can find refurbished guitars with scratches and stuff like that, that sound waaaaaay better than that squire guitar :P
